Basic Steps for applying CPU Patch

Hello,
I'm asking for someone to please post a basic step-by-step procedure for appling an oracle cpu patch. Nothing too detailed, but something I can use as an outline.
Thank you

If you look in the readme.txt it will have all the steps needed and what to do if it is rac or not; but very high level:
- shutdown the database
- cd into the patch directory
- issue $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch napply -skip_subset -skip_duplicate -local
- Startup
- run from sqlplus: catbundle.sql cpu apply
- run utlrp.sql
checking logs along the way

  • Steps to apply cpu patch on RAC

    Hi All,

    Regards
    Raj

    Hi user8884603,
    as Rajesh has mentioned, all info is in the readme file, but lookout specifically:
    If you can apply the patch while the DB is open or CRS is started.
    If you must apply the patch on all nodes in the cluster or only from 1 node.
    As which user specific tasks must be done.
    Hope this is helpful.

  • What are the steps to apply Oracle Patch?

    What are the steps to apply Oracle Patch?

    Hi,
    apply patch != apply patchset
    Generally, patch is apply with opatch tool (from 9i), and there is an exe for patchset.
    But, as it already said, the reading of readme is always a good idea...

  • Listener not stoping while apply CPU(patch)

    Any body know the effect if i dont stop listener while apply CPU(Patch), i dont want to stop listener which is serving 30more dbs also....

    You are heading for a train wreck.
    If the CPU is going to patch the listener code (did you read the docs to see if it is?) then it is going to affect all 30 instances.
    But then 30 instances on a single server is, by definition, a train wreck waiting to happen.
    If you are the junior DBA I'd suggest you talk to the senior DBA immediately. If you are the only DBA it is time you either called in a consultant or had a long talk with management about the concept of consolidation as you are presiding over lunacy.

  • What are the basic steps for creating a content repository?

    I am trying to create a document store on a file system (fsdb) that will hold files that are ftp's to that location. Is this possible using KM? If so, what are the basic steps for creating a file system repository and using it through KM? I have found stuff on help.sap.com but that only tells you what each component does not what actual steps need to be taken to setup KM, such as user rights , creating an entry point, so that all of KM is not visible, etc...
    If anyone knows of any guides that show a step by step process that would be great too.
    Thanks
    Paul

    Hi Paul
    First of all you need to create a new repository
    Suppose you want to add all the documents under folder Paul under C: Drive
    (Even you can put whole documents of C: drive into Paul)
    Navigate to System Admin -> System Configuration -> Knowledge management -> Content Management -> Repository Manager -> File System Repository
    There you can create a new directory by clicking on button New
    Give the parameters as follows :-
    Name               :           Anything you like
    Description       :           Anything you want
    Prefix (must start with /)  :  Probably same as your repository name like \Paul
    Lookup mode : caseless
    Root Directory   :  C:\Paul
    NOTE:  This is the trick. You need to give the proper path means folder path which you want use as repository)
    Repository Services  :  Any services you want
    Property Search : Managercom.sapportals.wcm.repository.manager.generic.search.SimplePropertySearchManager
    Security Manager         :           AclSecurityManager
    ACL Manager Cache   :           ca_cm_rep_acl
    The save it
    Now see whether the same repository is coming under KM Content or not, if not may be after restart it will come.
    I think the above information will help you. If still you have problem, please feel free to contect me.

  • How to apply CPU patch

    Hi...guys...
    I want to apply the CPU patch for 2-NODE RAC Database..
    Actually I never applied patches..plz can any one guide me how to apply the CPU patches for RAC...
    As per as my knowledge..
    1.apply the patch for clusterware.
    2.apply the patch for database level...
    is its right...
    Another thing is how to upgrade the 10.2.0.2 to 10.2.0.4 for RAC ...
    plz help me..

    Hi,
    you are right, clusterware always has to be on the same or higher patchlevel as/than the database so you will patch it first. Generally, the hardest part is finding the patch on metalink, once you have found it, there is a readme with every patch that has very detailed instructions on what to do. For CPUs and other patches, you will generally bring down services on one node, then run opatch on that node. Once it is done patching, it will tell you to restart all services on that first node and shut down services on the other node(s). Once you hit OK opatch will continue to patch the remote hosts.
    The upgrade to 10.2.0.4 will be a bit more complicated. AFAIR there is a real installer with that one and once you are done patching the software you also have to patch the database itself which means downtime.

  • APPLYING CPU PATCHES

    Hi Hussein:
    I am planning to apply the CPU patches for my EBS instance. I know that the application server and the Database server patchsets are cumulative. So I can apply the latest CPU.But the EBS patchsets are not cumulative. In order to get the list of all the patches that needs to be applied since April 2006,I need to query AD_APPLIED_PATCHES with the EBS patch numbers since April 2006 right? Is this the right approach.
    Regards,
    Bala

    Bala,
    If your instance release is 11i then you are correct. You need to query AD_APPLIED_PATCHES (I would prefer querying AD_BUGS table) to get the list of applied patches.
    In R12, CPU patches are cumulative.

    You can run the patch with apply=n but this will let you to test the patch before applying it only.

  • What are basic steps for using Handbrake ripping software?

    I free downloaded Handbrake 0.8.0b1 to my 10.4.9 Mac OSX intending to download a DVD of home 8mm movies, that had been compiled by comm. photo shop, so that I could use iMovie & iDVD programmes to create new DVDs of segments of the 8mm movies. Can't find basic instructions on how to run Handbrake. When I open it the menu is mostly greyed out, so I have little or no choice. Tried downloading parts of the DVD several times, and only once did it register a file (in desktop) which I was able to open. I subsequently lost that by trying to move its destination. Other times a destination for the download is shown in the menu, (greyed out) but it isn't registered anywhere on the hard drive, nor shown on the desktop. So I would appreciate learning the elementary abc's of the steps to use that software.
      Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    These Apple-hosted forums are best for Q&A about Apple software. The best place to get info about using non-Apple software is from the developers themselves. Check out the Handbrake FAQ page and/or post your question on the Handbrake developers' forums.

  • Cpu patch step

    hi i am fresh graguate using my friend account and just got jog as dba.i am told to apply cpu patch on aix 5.3lL. I need to apply CPU July on Oracle database version 10.2.0.4. I do not have metalink access and I'm not to good in using OTN. Could someone help me with steps to apply CPU patch.
    Thank You!
    Lakshmi

    To be able to download the CPU, you need your metalink credentials. No one here can send you the patch.
    Steps for applying the patch are documented in the readme file bundled in the patch itself.

  • Steps to apply patch...

    Hi,
    I found on page 3-2 on doc titled as "Oracle Applications Maintenance Procedures" the steps required for applying a patch.
    During step 7: "Respond to the AutoPatch prompts" the system asks for the password of ORACLE user. Is this the password of system db user account..???
    Do i have to run autoconfig after each applied patch, or once after applying the last one, or if the readme file of a patch does direct to do so....or...???
    Note: i use EBS 11.5.10.2
    Thank you,
    Sim

    Sim,
    Ah.... that's why on paragraph "Testing a Patch Before Applying It" page 3-5 (of the doc i reffered to my previous post) it is written:
    ".... In test mode, AutoPatch reads and validates the patch driver file, reads product file
    driver files, extracts object modules from product libraries (for version checking),
    performs version checking, *and runs AutoConfig (in test mode)*." Test mode means you use "option=no", this is is useful if you want to know exactly what a patch will do before applying the patch.

    Except for the notes written on this doc, Is there anything else i have to be careful of as i'm going to apply my very first patch and i do not want to fail....Just make sure you take a backup, and follow the steps in the patch README file.
