Apply Patch Script - services

I want to use the OEM to apply a patch to the database. On step 4 "Stage or Apply" it shows a DOS script with comments about stopping services and bringing them back up and performing post installation tasks.
What do I need to put in here? Will it automatically stop the database if I leave it as is? or do I have to work out the DOS commands to stop the database, Application Server etc and put them in this file before scheduling it?

Hi ALl,
I try to apply patch 8350262 to build EM in Linux server 5.1. The read me advise as " Before applying this patch, do a clean shut down of all services running from the ORACLE_HOME".
I understand to shutdown EM as emctl stop dbconsole.
what other services does need be shutdown as do a clean shut down of all services running from the ORACLE_HOME
Thanks

SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and service packs.

SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and
service packs. Nothing we've done so far has fixed it and I see that I'm not the only person with this problem. However I don't see any answers either.

Hi Kim Sharp,
According to your description that when you view the report it is extremely slow in SSRS 2008 R2 but it is very fast when execute the query in dataset designer, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can‘t reproduce the issue. Obviously, it is the performance issue, rendering performance can be affected by a combination of factors that include hardware, number of concurrent users accessing reports, the amount
of data in a report, design of the report, and output format. If you have parameters in your report which contains many values in the list, the bad performance as you mentioned is an known issue on 2008 R2 and already have the hotfix:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2276203
Any issue after applying the update, I recommend you that submit a feedback at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
If you don’t have, you can do some action to improve the performance when designing the report. Because how you create and update reports affects how fast the report renders.
Actually, the Report Server ExecutionLog2 view contains reports performance data. You could make use of below query to see where the report processing time is being spent:
After you determine whether the delay time is in data retrieval, report processing, or report rendering:
use ReportServer
SELECT TOP 10 ReportPath,parameters,
TimeDataRetrieval + TimeProcessing + TimeRendering as [total time],
TimeDataRetrieval, TimeProcessing, TimeRendering,
ByteCount, [RowCount],Source, AdditionalInfo
FROM ExecutionLog2
ORDER BY Timestart DESC
Use below methods to help troubleshoot issues according to the above query result :
Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
Besides this, you could also follow these articles for more information about this issue:

Dear Techies,
Thanks alot for your fast response.
We are trying to upgrade Solution Manager Stack from
ST-PI 2005_1_700 to ST-PI 2008_1_700 ,
While applying patch it was suddenly stopped with an error
"Manual modification adjustment is neccessary"
While I tried to adjust it.
In Note correction tree. This the message with " green tick"
"0001293326 EWA: Newest ST-PI Is Rated 'Outdated'; Wrong RTCCTOOL Date"
and is not allowing me to proceed further.
How to go about.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Kiran

Hi Varun,
Thanks for your reply.
As suggested by you, I executed "RTCCTOOL" programme.

They are.

                                 01N_700SOL. Upload to tx SAINT (just as you would do for an installation) and install as per note 69455
                                 Then restart report RTCCTOOL and choose 'List->Refresh from SAPNet'.
        4. [Note 539977 ]     ST-PI Support Packages

                              distribution.
         Implementation We recommend that you implement the Supportpackage SP1 for ST-PI 2008_1* to solve the error. Only if
                                  not possible implement note 1312413   with not version >=12 using SNOTE. Regarding automatic maint.

Make sure that no oracle processes are running on windows, stop all services again and use the task manager to kill any oracle process that is running. But first read de README.txt that you have with your patch, there is all the steps you need to follow to perform that installation.

An error occurred while applying SQL script for the feature BackendStore.

Hello,
I am using my AD in Windows Azure VMs. I created new VM of A3 (4 cores, 7 GB Memory) Windows Server 2012 R2, Port 1433 MSSQL added, made it a member of Domain and planned to install first Lync Server 2013 on it.
In "Setup or Remove Lync Server Components" of "Install or Update Lync Server System", got an Red Coloured text "An error
occurred while applying SQL script for the feature BackendStore."
I have not enabled monitoring and archiving server in topology builder. I added "Network Service" and assign "Full Control" in Security Permissions of "C:\CsData" and "C:\LyncShare".
I executed the SQL Setup Wizard and upgraded any instance to 2012.
Please guide.

Applying Patches to ISE 1.2.0.899

I am running ISE 1.2.0.899 Patch level 2.
I want to upgrade to patch level 6.
I understand that the ptaches are supposed to be cumulative and not incremental...but I want to make sure as I am 4 levels behind...Is there anything special I have to do? Do I just apply patch 6 from the Primary Admin node and it brings me straight to patch 6?
Didn't note anything in the release notes, but I don't want to run into any surprises.
Thanks,
Phill

Well,
I upgraded to patch 6. The patch did not replicate over to the other two nodes as I expected.
I called TAC and was told to accomplish this manually, which I did on the secondary node.
I did not have FTP access to the one in my DMZ, so I had to put that one off until the evening (had to get the firewall guy to give me access...then wait until after production hours). Anyhow, we noted a large increase in traffic between the primary ISE node and the Policy Service node in our DMZ...traffic flow seemed to be around 40 megs. This flow ceased when I manually upgraded the DMZ Policy Service Node.

Apply Patch in EBS R.12.1.1

Hello All,
I have some issues in applying application patch. my ebs version is R.12.1.1 Linux x86 and patches will be apply are *9055234*, *9366099*, and *10364346*.
I follow steps to apply patch from Hussein Sawwan. but I face some problem.
Steps to apply a patch:
- Stop all application services (keep the database and the database listener up and running)
- Download the patch from Metalink
- Copy the patch file to any directory (i.e. /u04/patches) --- if there is not any patch directory so I should be create a new patch directory below $/u0/. is't true?
- As 'applmgr' do the following:
- Source the environment file --- I found 2 file .env are APPSVIS_oradev.env and VIS_oradev.env in /u0/oracle/VIS/apps/apps_st/appl/ which one is true?
- $ cd /u04/patches
- Type 'unzip <patch_number>.zip' --- pacth file which has been downloaded are *.xml* type not *.zip* type. so what should I do?
- cd <patch_number>
- Type 'adpatch'
- When it prompts you to enter the patch driver, type 'u<patch_number>.drv' --- where I found patch driver? is patch driver including in path file?
Any suggestion please?? All answrers will be helpful..

Applying Patches in Solaris 10 x86

Hello,
I have been testing Solaris 10 x86.
I am trying to determine the best method for applying patches, as I do not have a Sun Service Plan.
I have used smpatch analyze and smpatch update to apply the required paches to my system, but I am not sure that I am getting the patches that I should be. It seems that when I run smpatch analyze and smpatch update, not all of the patches are applied (aside from the ones that should be installed in single user mode).
I know that without a service plan, I only qualify for hardware patches and security updates.
Please advise,
Thanks for your help.

Error applying patch 6435000

Am trying to upgrade a 11.5.10 instance to R12 and while trying to apply patch 6435000, am getting stuck at the stage where worker is executing job jtf_diag_dependencies.xdf. Worker log indicates the system is unable to get a connection to db. The service name being used is actually the sid, but don't understand where the system is picking this up from.
Have verifed the context file and env files to ensure that the service name and sid are specified appropriately (hrtc and hrtc1 respectively).
Any pointers on where to look next greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Vijay

Hi,
The error is, as you see, the inability to get a connection. The problem is that I don't understand why the service name is listed with the sid instead of the service name in the connection string. The listing a few lines above the error does indicate the service name (hrtc) and instance name (hrtc1) correctly. Where is this information being picked up from? I have reviewed the context file and environment files. The sid and service name are correctly listed in these files.
Any pointers?

Problems applying patch 8.1.7.1.1

WE HAVE 2 SEPARATE INSTALLATIONS AS FOLLOWS:
1)
NT4 / DB 8.1.7.0 / iAS 1.0.2.0(portal 3.0.7) all under same machine
WE USE THIS SERVER FOR TESTING
2)
W2000 / DB 8.1.7.0 / iAS 1.0.2.2 (portal 3.0.9). db in one server, iAS in another server.
WE ARE PLANNING TO USE THESE SERVERS
FOR PRODUCTION.
WE WANTED TO APPLY PATCH 8.1.7.1.1 IN THE PRODUCTION ENVIRONMENT BUT WE DECIDED TO TRY IT FIRST IN THE TEST ENVIRONMENT.
WE STARTED THE INSTALLATION AND ALL WENT FINE UNTIL STEP 5 ,WHEN YOU NEED TO "CONNECT INTERNAL" AND RUN SOME SQL SCRIPTS (CATALOG.SQL, CATPROC.SQL, etc...)
WE COULD NOT CONNECT AS INTERNAL. THEREFORE, WE COULD NOT FINISH THE WHOLE PROCESS FOR THE PATCH INSTALLATION.
TO MY SURPRISE, THE DB AND THE PORTAL ARE STILL WORKING NORMALLY!! IS THIS REASONABLE?
CAN I RUN THE SQL SCRIPTS REQUIRED IN STEP 5 AS "SYS" USER INSTEAD OF "INTERNAL"?
TKS!!

TKS PHILIP!
IN ORDER TO CONNECT WITH "SYS" THEN THE DATABASE HAS TO BE UP AND RUNNING.
I DON'T REMEMBER THE INSTALLATION STEPS MENTIONING TO START THE DATABASE PRIOR TO RUN THE SQL SCRIPTS (UNDER "INTERNAL").
ANY ADVICES?

Hello
Solman will not implement the files you can download the files using Solman. You need to move the downloaded files to application server and implement them for that you need to configure MoPZ
You can go to server market place service.sap.com/RKT in that select Solution manager.
You will have to select the product as solution manager 7.0 and in technology consultants and system administrator you will find the configuration documentations in for for SIM files.
You can use that and learn how to configure the optimizer on the system.
Then you can download the files and implement the same.

Hi Purav,
just find the sapinst files and execute it (but make sure that you have extracted only the relevant files!)
Start with the sapinst in the folder J2EE
J2EE:
J2EERT<SP>_<PL>.SAR
SAPINST<SP>_<PL>.SAR
CTRL<DB><SP>_<PL>.SAR
J2EERTOS<SP>_<PL>.SAR
Then continue with the one in portal:
Portal:
EP6CTRL<SP>_<PL>.SAR
EP6TOOLS<SP>_<PL>.SAR
EP6PORTAL<SP>_<PL>.SAR
SAPINST<SP>_<PL>.SAR
And after that is finished start the last sapinst:
CM+COLLABORATION
EP6KMC<SP>_<PL>.SAR
EP6CTRL<SP>_<PL>.SAR
EP6TOOLS<SP>_<PL>.SAR
SAPINST<SP>_<PL>.SAR

Holger.
