Hi
I am trying to download the OCT 2012 CPU patch for the 11.2.0.3 to install on Linux x86-64 which is having OS of RHEL 5.7. I am able to get the OCT 2012 PSU patch which include the CPU patch too.
Database 11.2.0.3.4 PSU Patch 14275605, or
GI 11.2.0.3.4 PSU Patch 14275572, or
But I just require only the CPU patch. Can anyone provide me the patch number or some link where I can download the Oracle CPU patch OCT 2012

Download of January CPU Patch, the filename is somewhat cryptic

I've tried to download the january cpu patch for three different o/s and when I click the download button, the file name looks right (i.e. p9952279_10105_SOLARIS64.zip), but when I click save the file name changes to a variation of letters and number (i.e. CAER8HUF.zip).
Why does this happen?

Finding CPU patches on oracle support

I could open a ticket and ask, but that would be a while for a response. Possibly days. So I am going to the patch screen. I am doing a search for CPUJUL2010 and nothing comes back. I need the July one on Solaris Sparc 64 bit.
on the left there is a security link with a bar graph. I click that and I get alot of things, but I do not get one for 11.1.0.7 (I think 11.1.0.6 will work, but I don't see it. I can check the notes). How do I find exactly what I am looking for? The search feature doesn't work. When I do a search the back button does not appear to work either.
I also opened up one of the cpu patch notes (not the one I want). All I get is al ist of bug fixes. Is there an easier way than going to each patch and reading the readme notes to see what is fixed? I need to go through all of this to tell management whether there is a critical security whole we just have to patch. I doubt there is, but I need to check.

for future refrerence. how do i easily find the MOS note for a new CPU patch.
I dont see a socument that tells me with an overview what is in the CPU patch. I see one, but it just lists a bunch of Patches that are in it and I have to go to each document. That is what I see in the readme. The other documents don't appear to have it.

Cpu patches for 12c OEM

Hi,
Has anyone deployed CPU patches for 12c OEM? In the recent Jul, 2012 CPU patch there is patch for Oracle Database Plug-ins, has anybody deployed this Jul ,2012 CPU patch for 12c OEM.
Enterprise Manager Plugin for Database 12c Release 1, versions 12.1.0.1, 12.1.0.2 Enterprise Manager
Thanks
Amit

I have requested the "on request" patch for the Oracle Database Management Plug-in for the 12.1.0.1 Home, but was told by Oracle Support that there was no patch. I am on Solaris Sparc 64. I looked at the CVE-2012-1737 advisory, and I am trying to figure out if the vulnerability does not apply to my platform, but frankly can't figure it out from that document, and the support person did not elaborate. Have you been given a patch?
Regards,
Peggy

CPU Patch Project

This is the project i have been assigned need suggestion, queris to check CPU,(qualified DBs), Road map...etc, any other suggestion
PHASE I
1) Identify all the existing oracle versions across the board for the preparation of cpu patch ===> you can logon to many servers and find out or contact the individual DBA to do it for you or ask India team to help you.
2) Identify the oracle versions qualified for cpu patch on non-prod env for the preparation of cpu patch
3) Identify the oracle versions need to be upgraded for applying the cpu patch on non-prod env for the preparation of cpu patch
4) Identify the oracle versions qualified for cpu patch on prod env for the preparation of cpu patch
5) Identify the oracle versions need to be upgraded for applying the cpu patch on prod env for the preparation of cpu patch
PHASE II
6)Check with the customer if we can test/install the cpu patch on the lab server & upgrade/cpu patch if we get the approval
7) Work with the customer to get an outage on non-prod qualified databases and schedule the change window for cpu patch
8) Work with the customer to get an outage on prod qualified databases and schedule the change window for cpu patch
9) Work with the customer to upgrade the oracle versions if the application is compatible with the upgraded version of oracle
10) If the customer provides acceptance for the upgrade, the databases will be upgraded and the cpu patch will be installed by the DBAs with in a maintenance window.

See also the Oracle On Demand Best Practices Critical Patch Update white paper which is a good reference document on CPU patching project.
However it seems that since July 2007, CPU patch will now also include many bug fixing for non security issues which might change application behaviour and raise the question about application testing needed. For example,
4711525 - PARSING BITMAPPED PLANS IS 3X TIMES MORE COSTLY
4712638 - ORA-00600 [15160] ORA-7445[KKOGBRO]
4722645 - ORA-7445 ON COMPLEX QUERY
There are 319 fixes in 6079588 (10.2.0.2 for Linux) but only 19 security fixes according to http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/security/critical-patch-updates/cpujul2007.html#AppendixA.

About CPU patches

Hi All,
Does anyone knows if the patches in note Oracle E-Business Suite Releases 11i and 12 Critical Patch Update Knowledge Document (April 2012) (Doc ID 1406263.1), are included in patch 8919491 (R12.ATG_PF.B.delta.3)??
Thanks in advance!

No they are not - CPU patches are separate from EBS patches and need to be applied separately.
For R12, CPU patches are cumulative, so applying the latest CPU should suffice.

Cpu patch apply

Hi,
does we need to apply the patches in sequence. i installed oracle 11g r2 today only, then which patch i can install. if i like to install cpu, then does i need to install all the previous or only the latest one. if only latest one only, then how can i find the cpu patch number.
of course, instead of cpu i can install psu patch, then which one has to install. only latest one or all previous also. if latest one only how to find latest psu patch that has to apply.
Please let me know.
Thank you!

Specific to CPU patches, every CPU contains bug fixes of quarter, you can apply latest one but run the pre-requisite check, whether there is any dependenices if any patches that are conflicts with it.
of course, instead of cpu i can install psu patch, then which one has to install. only latest one or all previous also. if latest one only how to find latest psu patch that has to apply.Yes , PSU is molecules of all bugs. You can go with PSU instead of CPU patches.

CPU Patch Jan 08 rollback

Hello,
We attempted to apply CPU Patch Jan 08 to our 10.1.0.5 database and the optach hang for a over an hour. So we did a control c and got our of the opatch. Then we rollback the opatch.
After the rollback the databases startup without errors. Now we like to know if the oracle binary is corrupted or not corrupted when we cancelled the opatch. How to check if the Oracle binary is not corrupted? Thank you.

There are not a lot of situations where you would end up with a corrupted Oracle binary from patching. Opatch relinks with make, which moves the new binary into place with mv. If opatch rolled back successfully, then you should be back on the original version.
This kind of extended downtime tryng to apply a patch is the reason I developed my method for staging patched Oracle binaries. It requires some work with a CPU patch, but it is not impossible, and it can save you serious sweat if downtime is intrusive at your site.
The method is outlined on page 7 of this document:

2> Will I have to apply latest Databse security patch too ??
Thanks.

@Thanks Hussein
I have been referrring to that note id from start , in its section 2, table 2 its given
+++'Critical Patch Update Availability for Oracle Fusion Middleware 10.1.3.5' table of My Oracle Support Knowledge Document 1159443.1, Critical Patch Update October 2010 Patch Availability Document for Oracle Products.+++
Thats the note 1159443. i referred to you.

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.
