Hi Anu,

you need to request a host transfer for all the enablers, including the base 
enabler, to get the new auth codes.

If you have a support contract, then your support provider should do that for 
you. Check with them all licensing options.

The base enabler on solaris SPARC is 4-5 times more expensive than a 
linux/windows or solaris x64 enabler. I assume the upgrade enabler should be 
cheaper on linux.

The other question is whether you will keep the old server for recoveries only 
or if you are planing to migrate the media db. In principle a cross-platform 
migration is not supported but it can be done....
