Database Patch Conflicts

Hi Experts,
While applying the latest SPU or CPU Jan14 (17478415), I'm getting following conflicts. I have also attached the log files
1. http://www.filedropper.com/opatch2014-01-2008-47-35am1
2. http://www.filedropper.com/lsinventory2014-01-2007-05-47am
The following warnings have occurred during OPatch execution:
1) OUI-67301:
Following patches have conflicts: [ 14727310 15862019 13696216 16056266 16314467 13923374 17540582 17478415 17748834 ]
Refer to My Oracle Support Note 1299688.1 for instructions on resolving patch conflicts.
2) OUI-67302:
OPatch found that the following patches are not required.
They are either subset of the patches in Oracle Home (or) subset of the patches in the given list
(or) duplicate :
13742433 13742434 13742435 13742436 13742438 14062795 14062797 14480675 14480676 15862016 15862017 15862018 15862020 15862021 15862022 15862023 15862024 16794241 16794242 16794244 17333197 17333198 17333199 17333202 17333203 17748830 17748831 17748832 17748833 17748835
The metalink docs 1299688.1 and 1321267.1 mentioned in the log file does not help , can you help me in understanding and fixing these patch conflicts.
Note: I have already applied the latest Jan2014 PSU (17540582) successfully.
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
Thanks

Thanks for replying Srini.
Really appreciate your quick response and the in-depth explanation.
So basically there are no true conflicts and I can proceed further.
There is one more thing I need to know, my current environment has a Grid Infrastructure home as well so before applying the latest PSU (11.2.0.3.9) I haven't applied the Grid Infrastructure PSU 11.2.0.3.9 Patch 17735354 to the Grid Infrastructure home and Database home.
Will that be fine or do I need to rollback the PSU and than apply the GI PSU, as I found in readme.txt that "GI PSUs are cumulative and include the Database PSU and associated CPU program security content."
Thanks

Patch conflict when applying the 10.2.0.5 Patch set on Windows 7.

Hi everybody.
I have problem when install PSR 10.2.0.5 on Windows 7.
First, Oracle Client 10.2.0.3 installed successfull. I want upgrade from Oracle Client 10.2.0.3 to Oracle Client 10.2.0.5.
I downloaded Database10g PatchSetRelease10.2.0.5 for Microsoft Windows(x32) from E-Delivery Japan Site, then used it installed successfull but new ODBC is not added.
Because of that I used metalink for download 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 and OPatch utility release 10.2.0.5.0.
I extracted OPatch utility release 10.2.0.5.0 zip file directly under the ORACLE_HOME (Old Opatch is been overrided).
Then Opatch aplly command executed for 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 but the error has occurred.
( D:\Oracle10.2.0.5\12332703 is 10.2.0.5 Patch 9 folder path. )

How to detect potential CPU patch conflict in advance.

Hi,
Is there any way to report the CPU patch conflicts before applying the patch.
I found this syntax: opatch apply -silent -no_bug_superset -report in http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpu-whitepaper-129885.pdf
However it doesn't work.
I downloaded the patch and unzipped the same:

10.1.2.0.2 OID not listening after database patch 10.0.5

Hi
I've installed database patch 10.0.5 to an Oracle Infrastructure 10.1.2.0.2. The software and scripts installed with no problems. I started the OID server using:
opmnctl start process-type=OID
Which always worked before and it returns with no errors. But OID is not listening on port 389. dcmctl start will throw an error trying to connect to OID.
Any ideas?

The readme for the patch has very detailed instructions !
OID needs to be up as you say plus the other components. But there is a good prereq checker before you run it.
If worried do a backup of $OH , the inventory and the IASDB then give it a try, if it fails just restore.

OPatch succeeded.
So I've done some reading but still not sure what to do here. Do I:
- download newer patches 13004894 and 12942119 that are available for 11.2.0.3.9?
- roll back 13004894 and 12942119
- install 11.2.0.3.9 PSU 17540582
- apply newer patches 13004894 and 12942119?

Patch 13004894 and Patch 12942119 are NOT included in Patch 17540582 so what you need to do is:
- Rollback Patch 13004894 and Patch 12942119
- Apply Patch 17540582
- Apply Patch 13004894 and Patch 12942119 (11.2.0.3.9)
Patch Set Updates for 11.2.0.3 - One-off Patch Conflict Resolution (Doc ID 1592104.1)
Thanks,

The above two patch are NOT included in the PSU Patch so they should be applied after applying the PSU

Oracle Database patching

Hi plz help me.
i want to learn oracle database patching from the people like u but before that i tried much hard to find the documentation of patching at oracle documentation center. now after searching it lot i m tired so plz can any one tell me the exact documentation by which i can learn patching for applications. plz help me.
nikhil

The patch(set) documentation is included in the patch zip file. The best way to learn about patching database should be to build a test db, then try to patch/upgrade it.

plz correct me if i am wrong?and give me complete details about them.All patches are applied on binaries i.e. ORACLE_HOME and some patches also have some scripts to be run to update data dictionaries.
For interim patch explanation please refer to MOS :
Oracle Data Server Interim Patch Installation (OPatch) [ID 189489.1]
Also i want to know,is there any database patch for ORA-1555 error?ORA-155 occurs due to undo tablespace.
check MOS note :
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE (TSG) - ORA-1555 [ID 467872.1]

Operating System And Database Patch

Hello everyone,
Does Sap have a specific note about operating system and database patch management? It is important for
me for applying operating system and database patches.

I'm not exactly sure what you're asking about but usually the operating system vendors have to make sure that applications work as before after a patch.
Since SAP applications run on many different combinations of operating systems and databases together with different kernels and/or database clients it's impossible to test them all in all combinations.
SAP has no notes with "don't use Hotfix A,B,C on your Windows machine together with Hotfix D or E on the database server"; known issues are listed in the notes for the patches themselves (on the vendors websites, not SAP).

PSU patches conflict

Hi,
Following readme of PSU patch 9952234:
Determine whether any currently installed one-off patches conflict with the PSU patch as follows:
unzip p9952234_102044_<platform>.zip
opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir ./9952234I unziped the file , and from the unziped directory run the command:
[/software/oracle/PATCHES/9952234]$ opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir ./9952234
Invoking OPatch 10.2.0.5.1
Oracle Interim Patch Installer version 10.2.0.5.1
Copyright (c) 2010, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
The argument "./9952234" does not exists.
PREREQ session
Argument(s) Error... Patch base location is not valid.
Please check the arguments and try again.
OPatch failed with error code 135I also tried to run the command directly from the ORACLE_HOME , but got the same error message.
Any suggestion ?

Try running the command from the directory location "/software/oracle/PATCHES" rather than "/software/oracle/PATCHES/9952234"

tnx,
sam.as per the oracle documentation... if a patch has been applied, all the bugs fixed by that patch could reappear after another patch is applied. This is called a conflict situation. OPatch detects such situations and raises an error when a it detects a conflict.
OPatch can detect the following types of conflicts:
Bug Superset
Subset
Duplicate
Bug Conflict
File Conflict
Combination Conflict...etc
please check below link for more info.
