In Numbers, highlighting a gap?
I have a line graph in Numbers with multiple lines to show the trends. But I want to show the gap between the two points. So is there a way to highlight from a point on the first line to a point on the second line?
Hope that makes sense.. not sure if it is possible!
You had to pick that one didn't you?
this is not a feature or anything, it's a trick, a workaround if you will. A real workaround
First it's a scatter plot, I don't think it will work in a line chart at all.
Second, I am on my ipad, so what you see is what you get, maybe SG can answer the line thickness part.
Ok, Scatter plots, they can plot data that isn't continuous, meaning if there isn't a Reading for Tuesday, it won't show zero (like other chart types typically do), it will just draw a line from Monday across Tuesday to the Wednesday point for example. It also will only draw a line between two points if they are one above the other in the table. If there is a blank row, no line between the last value and the next one further down in the table in that column.
I use these two things together to get the result.
So for each vertical section the chart. I am plotting three things, so three columns, but I need to draw a line between two of them, so I need different data in the third column between two rows. This will draw a line in that color between the data points on rows 1 and 2. But I don't want the other points to change so I leave them in place for all three rows. The blank row is there to stop it drawing a yellow line between columns of information in the chart ( put something in and watch the difference.
Look at my table, I typed in values by hand, but it could easily be accomplished using some Formulas.
It actually, plots three dots at 10 and at 15 for value 1 and 2, but it draws a line from the 10 to 15 in the third column, then stops because of the blank row. If you put data there or remove the blank row, you get a yellow line from 15 in counter one data to the 10 in counter 2 data. Try it to see what I mean.

Sequence numbers - with no gaps!
I seek some advice from anyone with first hand experience in this area.
My need is simple; generate a new ID number for every order for use as the primary key.
Obviously this simple exercise could be a bottleneck as volumes ramp up, so I was pleased to find the Oracle feature to generate such numbers (efficiently presumably). However, upon closer reading it was apparent that aborted transactions would result in the loss of the number allocated to to that order if another transaction had obtained the next sequence number already (as one would want it to, rather than serializing transactions).
I don't want to have gaps in the sequence as the system needs a high degree of auditability. I am thinking of utilising the Autonomous Transaction feature to write the newly acquired sequence number to the order file with a flag indicating that the record is incomplete, and that record is to be skipped by normal system applications (but available to audit reports which will interpret the reason correctly), then returning to the far more extensive main transaction which updates many tables.
The other alternative is to control sequence numbers within the application itself, or try to get the sequence number as the very last step before writing the new order record, but this probably won't guarantee gapless reliability either. The ID itself has no significance, and it doesn't matter if an ID was used out of strict date/time sequence, so I really don't want to execute these updates serially.
So, my question is this:
a) do most people use the builtin sequence number feature?
b) if so, is there a standard technique for avoiding or accounting for gaps?
c) if the application must take over this task, should the counter for the last used ID be in a single row table to minimise bottlenecks caused by the thisrecord being locked? There will be several such counters for different aspects of the application, and i thought of having each in its own row in a small table, but I'm concerned about the whole table getting locked and freezing out otherwise-unrelated updates.
Thanks for any advice you may have.

I don't want to have gaps in the sequence as the system needs a high degree of auditability. One of the very very few reasons for me to have a requirement for "gapless" sequences is if you have a kind of checking mechanism outside of the database that is implemented using this gapless number. I had such a requirement once, when exchanging files with another bank where we had to ensure that each file was transferred correctly and in the right order. Your "high degree of auditability" might be a similiar requirement. Just remember as long as you are still inside the database you can use other mechanisms to increase auditability.
I am thinking of utilising the Autonomous Transaction feature to write the newly acquired sequence number to the order file with a flag indicating that the record is incomplete, and that record is to be skipped by normal system applications (but available to audit reports which will interpret the reason correctly), then returning to the far more extensive main transaction which updates many tables.Hm. I don't see why you want to use Autonomous Transactions for this. It might be useful to lessen locking conflicts , depending how your future sequence mechanism will be built.

The ID itself has no significance, and it doesn't matter if an ID was used out of strict date/time sequence, so I really don't want to execute these updates serially.I would go for generating the sequence as the very last step. It needs to be set to NOCACHE of cause. This will garantee that the sequence fetched from mySeq.nextval is gapless. The problem is then in your application. Your application must be built in a way that it ensures to use this sequence, or at least to create a noticable alert when this generated sequence can't be used anymore. In essence this means. Each unhandled (database) error that happens after you fetched the next sequence value must be raised in a way that informs all relevant people about this error.
Example: It might be that you use the sequence to write an order file. What happens if halfway through writing the file your disk runs out of space? This can be such an issue where a sequenced value will be lost. Your organisation must take care of those things.
>
So, my question is this:
a) do most people use the builtin sequence number feature?Yes. But for some tasks a sequence is not the best way, for example if you want a numbering for each item of your order. This "sequence" needs to restart with every new order.
b) if so, is there a standard technique for avoiding or accounting for gaps?NOCACHE => Avoids gaps during generation
Database Trigger => Tries to use the sequence as late as possible
c) if the application must take over this task, should the counter for the last used ID be in a single row table to minimise bottlenecks caused by the thisrecord being locked? There will be several such counters for different aspects of the application, and i thought of having each in its own row in a small table, but I'm concerned about the whole table getting locked and freezing out otherwise-unrelated updates.This is a possibility and the issues you describe are why we avoid such a solution in general. Autonomous transactions help to reduce the locking conflict, but they increase the chance that you produce gaps.

CSOracle can guarantee to produce gapless sequences. But it can't guarantee that your application uses such a sequence in a gapless way. -
Spreadsheet imported from excel. Formula to add columns gives a syntax error as soon as the colon key is pressed and system freezes. However, highlighting the columns works and shows the formula as expected. The system works properly on new sheets!
Ron,
In cases of bad behavior such as this, it sometimes helps to close and quit everything and restart the computer. Try that and let us know if the problem persists after the restart.

Produce a range of numbers with select from the gaps of ID column
(1)
Suppose I have a table t which has rows like this:
A B
2 4
6 7
I would like to use select to produce rows with numbers ranging between A column and B column inclusive
for each row, like this:
select ... from t ...
2
3
4
6
7
(2)
Suppose I have ID column which has gaps, I would like to get lowest <N> available numbers between the gaps.
I did research, and I can find the range of the gaps, but I cannot have the numbers listed individually, that is why
I ask question (1). But is there a direct way to get the list instead of going through ranges and the list.
For example, I have ID column which has
2
5
6
7
9
2000000
I would like to get a select query that produces
select ...
3
4
8
10
11
I have a way to get a list from 2 to 2000000 and then minus what we have to get all the
gap numbers, but that is not efficient and could runs out of memory.
PS: Before I post to this group, I did research already on "connect by", with recursive queries.First of all, I would like to thank jeneesh and Frank for helpful and correct reply. However, due to the a bug of this forum,
when I mark jeneesh's reply as correct, I cannot mark Frank's reply as correct anymore. Therefore I would like to formally
state here that I have tested both solutions and they are both correct. jeneesh and Frank use different approach, connect by
and less join ( <=, I do not know what is the proper name for it ).
Secondly I would like to report my small findings: use connect by, you control the level from 1 to the max number, so you
do not need to use order by, and the performance is better (0.37 seconds version 0.92 seconds). And also it performs better
if I use an intermediate view to limit the result sets. One line of code is worth one thousand words, now I am posting two
versions of the code and highlighted the points I mentioned here.
I am sorry that either I do not know how to format the code or I do not have the capability when posting on this forum.
The code listing does not look good, but I hope you get the idea. I have "plain text" and I am not if I can use fixed width font
and preserve space. After I used the spelling checker, it becomes double spaced and I have to manually delete the blank lines.
/* I learned about { code } after the post and edited the original post */
Thanks again to both jeneesh and Frank.

Error while saving FYV : Gaps in financial year variant periods
Hello Experts,
We are getting an error while saving a new FYV as:
Gaps in financial year variant periods XY
Message no. FGV556
Diagnosis
The period specification has gaps. The periods must be sequentially numbered without any gaps.
System Response
Only a correctly defined period assignment can be saved.
Procedure
Define the periods with consecutive numbers.
Details: The new FYV has 52/53 weeks as posting periods depending on calendar year.
For example, we are trying to define Fisc 2009 as follows. (Fiscal year 2009 = Nov 01 2008 to Oct 31 2009).

Inspite of making sure that all the days of 2009 are covered by periods 1 to 52. We are still unable to save the FYV.
Please help!
SusanHello, I am getting this error while saving the FSV. My FSV is based on Weeks. Below is what I am inputting for this. Other details are Calender Year - 2017, No. of posting periods - 53, checked year dependent. Also, I have FSV for previous years also where weeks are 52 but configured as 53. So, hope that this is not creating this issue. Solicit your early response.

How best to include additional on-page info (*as well as*) page numbers in a Table of Contents?
Hi all -
I'm creating a directory / listings document. At the end of the publication, I need to create a "quick reference" section - with an alphabetised listing of each entry, some key info from each entry, and the page number for each entry.
I've created a unique paragraph style for each of the lines that I need to include here - so the Table of Contents is picking them up successfully.
However, I'm struggling to style the outputs of the Table of Contents the way I need: I want a tab between each of the included paragraph styles that are returned for each entry, and then a line return at the end.
So…
First Hotel name -> Star Rating -> Number of Bedrooms -> etc etc
Second Hotel name -> Star Rating -> Number of Bedrooms -> etc etc
Instead of…
First Hotel name
Star Rating
Number of Bedrooms
etc
Second Hotel name
Star Rating
Number of Bedrooms
etc
Any suggestions?
One important point to note - I'm using CS5.5… an upgrade is in my future, but I want to finish this project first! (Don't want to switch mid-stream.)
Thanks!Thanks. I went there and bulleted align by decimal, but it didn't work on the page. For one thing, when I highlight that page, for some weird reason the numbers from 9 up DO NOT HIGHLIGHT. ! Only the text following those numbers highlight, altho all the other numbers and text following 9 highlight!
Don't know why it would have this weird situation! Seems like a flaw in the design.
I tried moving the little blue cursors above, but I'd need to move it half a step either way to bring those one-digit number decimals in alignment with the rest. For some reason the cursors will ONLY move a full step! So they're out of alignment no matter what I do. Darn!

Does anybody have a sales organization setup for Italy... where they have implemented either:
1 - invoice lists
2 - parallel buffering
We are having performance issues with our Italy billing because they want 1 invoice per payer... per month... so we have to hold all billing until month-end. The monthly volume is so high, that it takes a major hit on our system. And they (our Italy business) say that legally, they cannot use invoice lists. (something to do with the legal requirement of consecutive billing doc numbering WITH NO GAPS that matches up 1:1 with accounting docs). They say we can't do invoice lists because there is no accounting document to go with the invoice list.
We are also hesitant to implement parallel buffering for fear of creating gaps in the number ranges, which is apparently forbidden.
If anybody has any "ammunition" I can use to take to the Italy business to convince them to go one of the paths above... or if someone has another option to propose, that would be very helpful!Hello,
it the OSS 746162 realy the newest information? It's only until Release SAP_APPL 500
Is there a newer version avalilable?
In SPRO I saw the "Cross-Application Document Numbering" for Italy - it this the new technique?

Cond. format/how to automagically highlight LOWEST number in a set?
greetings.
i have a spreadsheet which collects and summarizes the results of a very complex bid procedure with many individual positions.
in order to help us make a decision on which bid to accept, i'd like to have numbers highlight the lowest bid out a of a large series and just make that one on a blue fill, and then the highest bid and make it have a red fill.
is this possible_? if so, how do i do it. in conditional formatting there doesnt seem to be an option for that...thinkbuild wrote:
It is also useful to have the min/max (and average) numbers for each position as well for quick analysis.
HOWEVER -
I am having problems with "copy/paste style" in Numbers (iWork '09, v2.0.3) - as follows:
(1) When using Copy/Paste Style, the usual relative or absolute locations are not copied as they would be when working with the normal contents of the cell.
For example, if as you suggest, I put a conditional format like this in a cell, say :
"if equal to M4, then Blue,"
when I then *_Copy Style_* (Format>Copy Style) and then *_Paste Style_* to the another ROW (say 5), it simply puts
"if equal to M4, then Blue,"
*and not*
+"if equal to M5, then Blue,"+
Which means I have to go into to each cell once again to get it to assign the conditions based on the lowest or highest value for that particular row (postion). This really slows me down as you can imagine.
As Jerry answered in the second thread, ALL conditional format rules refer to an absolute cell location (M4 in your case). The only way to change the location of the referral cell is to edit it.
BUT that does not mean you have to edit the rule for each individual cell in your table.
As I read your description, you have a table containing of a row of bids on item one, followed by a row of bids on item two, followed by a row of bids on item three, etc. You wish to find the minimum and maximum bid on item 1, the min and max bid on item 2, the min and max bid on item 3, etc.
You have no interest in finding (only) the ultimate minimum bid on any item and the ultimate maximum bid on any item (which, unless one or more bidders really does not understand the process, will be on a different item!).
In the context of the table, you want to mark both the minimum and maximum is each row, not just the minimum and maximum in the full table.
Here's how:
Data for the first item is in B2:L2
Data for the next item is in B3:L3
Data for the last item is in B20:L20
Max for each row is in column M
M2: =MAX(B2:L2) --drag handle to fill down to M20
Min for each row is in column N
N2: =MIN(B2:L2) --drag handle to fill down to N20
Select B2:L20
Open the Inspector, choose Cell Format, Click Show Rules...
Set the rule as "Equal to", Click the cell assignment button at the right end of the box, click cell M2
Click Edit, then the Fill box to show the color palette.
Click the red you want.
Click Done to finish editing that rule. (The button's label will change to "Edit")
Click Plus to add a second rule.
Use the same steps as above to set this rule to "Equal to N2" and to set the fill colour to green.
Click Done to finish editing the second rule. (The button's label will change to "Edit")
You now have every cell in the data set to fill with red if its value is equal to the maximum value in Row 2 or green if its value is equal to the minimum value in Row 2. Not yet exactly what you want (except for B2:L2).
Continues below.
Also:
(2) I find it is annoying that there is no green "accept" checkmark in the conditional formatting box. This makes it difficult to quickly edit the location upon which the condition is set and then easily get "out" of the cell for working on the next task. Or am I missing something here too?
While there is no green checkmark, there is a clear indication that you have set the conditions and are ready to move on.
For each rule, you may toggle at will between the Edit state and the Done state, using the button below that rule.
When you are "Done" with a rule, the line below the rule will show only the "Sample" of the cell's appearance when the rule's conditions are met and the Edit button.
Clicking the Edit button adds color wells for the Text and Fill of the cell and Bold, Italic, Underline and Strikethrough buttons to apply to the text in the cell, and changes the button's label to "Done". Clicking the Done button saves the rule, removes the editing tools from the display for this rule, and changes the button's label back to "Edit".
IF you are DONE, all rules will show only the rule, the sample box and the Edit button. If any of the rules show a Done button, you are not yet DONE.
Just as you set up the rules (above) for many cells, you can apply edits to sets of cells rather than to single cells. The restriction is that the same rule will apply to all of the edited cells. In your document, each row of data cells is a separate set.
The rules set above are correct for Row 2.
Before deselecting, check that both rules refer to the correct cell (M2 for Max, N2 for Min) and the correct colour, and that you have clicked the Done button for both buttons (ie. both offer the choice to Edit).
The Cell Format inspector should remain open, with the Conditional Format window showing.
For each row (where n represents the number of that row):
Select cells Bn:Ln
Click the cell reference (M2) in the first rule.
Type Mn (lower case m is OK, n is the number of the selected row)
Press return
Click the cell reference (N2) in the second rule.
Type Nn (lower case n is OK, second n is the number of the selected row)
Press return
Check that each rule's button says "Edit", and that the cell references are both to the correct row.
Select the next row and repeat.

Hi,
I created a sequence and a trigger for autonumber, as a primary key in my CAND_PERSONAL_INFO table. Every time i insert a row in the table, i get long gaps between my autonumber. I don't understand why cant i get a series of numbers without any gaps in my autonumber column.Sequence is not a good way of automatically generating the numbers due this gap problem.I disagree. Sequences are the best for auto-generating unique numbers. Why are gaps a problem?
The second solution is to fire a query select max(num) and add 1 to it every time you want to generate a number. That is a horrible idea in a multi-user environment. This will fail when 2 users do this at the time. -
Hey all
This is driving me crazy!
I need to calculate the average of a group of percentages excluding cells listed as '0%'.
Please see screen print below, numbers highlighted need to be averaged, when the table is filled out correctly some will remain '0%' whilst others will have a value, I want the average to be calculated only using numbers with a value greater than '0'.
FYI I am looking for the result to display in 'X2'
Thanks :-)you can use the averageif() function. Here is a simple example to get you started:
In this example the average if() function averages values that are non-zero
C2=AVERAGEIF(A1:E1,"<>0",A1:E1)
this is shorthand for select cell C2, then type (or copy and paste from here) the formula:
=AVERAGEIF(A1:E1,"<>0",A1:E1) -
I have a complex project in which I have divided half of the video clips to the left of my timeline, and another half to the right. I now want to drag the finished right half, and connect it to the left half, but there are so many files high up in video slot 7, that I can't click and drag to highlight them all. What do I do?
Track selection tool does that.
Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Find, select, and group clips in a sequence
A Tip on the side:
in your specific case the fastest action would be to highlight the gap in between your clips and ripple delete.
Lift and extract, delete, and ripple-delete clips | Adobe Premiere Pro CC tutorials
(the tutorial shows the ripple delete - function with a clip segment, but it works the same way with gaps.
Hope that clarifies a bit for you.
... and keep smiling -

I have a table say T1 with a column of unique sequential numbers that begin at 1. When one inserts a new row, one muse use a sequence number that is not currently in the column. that is Fill the gaps. If there are no gaps, then and only then one can use the next highest integer in the sequence.
create table T1
( seq_nbr INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY
CHECK (seq > 0);
junk CHAR(5) NOT NULL);
INSERT INTO T1
VALUES (1,'Tom'), (2,'Dick'), (4,'Harry'), (5,'Moe');
Here is the INSERT statement,i came across, where i am not able to understand how logic is working?
INSERT INTO T1 (seq_nbr,junk)
VALUES (CASE WHEN EXISTS -- no gaps
( SELECT 'no gaps'
FROM T1
HAVING COUNT(*) = MAX(seq_nbr))
THEN ( SELECT MAX(seq_nbr) FROM T1 ) + 1
ELSE ( SELECT MIN(seq_nbr) -- gaps
FROM T1
WHERE (seq_nbr -1)
NOT IN (SELECT seq_nbr FROM T1)
AND seq_nbr > 0) - 1, 'Jen');
the thing is i am not able to understand how this query is executing and the logic.. Can someone please explain this to me?Hi,
this works because the first part of the CASE statement assumes there are no gaps if the number of records in the table = the max(seq_nbr) and inserts the next one up. If there are gaps then it looks for the lowest missing seq_nbr. (without testing this code I wouldn't assume it works)
Overall though this is not good practice because with high volume systems it will most likely lead to all sorts of concurrency problems. Instead you should just use a straight oracle sequence. Every time I've seen someone try to specify the requirement that a PK must be contiguous set of numbers with no gaps I've found it to be based on an individuals perverse sense of completeness or a left over from an old manual system. Usually the sequence numbers where generated from a ledger and the only way they could easily count throughput was by subtracting yesterdays closing sequence from todays. Once you point out that the database can count these things in fractions of seconds, the requirement disappears.

Use of Official Document number in VAT Books for Italy
Dear All,
I would like to share with you a big doubt I have regarding the use of Official Document Number in the VAT Books. This is a requirement for an Italian client.
According to my clients requierement they would like to manage 5 different VAT Books:
1. Sale book (for all finished products sold in Italy, EU and outside EU)
2. Sale book for sundry sales (CAPEX, services, other goods ...)
3. Purchase book (for all the goods bought in Italy and out-side EU and for all the services bought in Italy)
4. EU purchase book (for all the goods and services bought from EU suppliers and for all the services bought from not EU suppliers)
5. EU sale (reverse charge) book (with the same numbers and amounts of the purchase book number 4)
For every VAT Book they want the Officil Document number to be displayed. Not only that, they want the Official Document Number to end in 1 (XXXXXXX1) at the start of every natural Year for EVERY VAT Book, and have sequential numbering with no gaps.
My intention is to use: RFKKITVATM. This is a specific VAT report for Italian Companies. The report selects documents that contain regular VAT and that have been assigned an Official Document number (ODN). You run this report to generate such a list for the current month. It selects documents with an ODN based on the invoice or credit memo posting date. You can create as many layout-variants (one per VAT Book??).
My question is: The VAT Books are based on different VAT Codes. How can we have every single VAT Book to start with an Official Document number ending in 1? The number range will be Document type dependant and not VAT Code dependant.
As per my knowledger, To use Official Document Numbering (ODN) in Italy we have to make a number of settings:
- Activate ODN
- Specify which document types the system is to assign official document numbers to.
- Assign installation-specific function modules to events
- Define Number ranges
Have you faced up a similar requirement? Is this a legal requierement or is my client mixing up with another legal requierement related to this subject: To print a sequential number and the fiscal year on each page of the reportu2019s output list. The System starts the numbering automatically at 1, as it does for each subsequent year.
Many thanks in advance for your help.Hello All,
Am facing an issue when implementing the ODN solution for Italy. I cannot replicate the ODN in field BKPF-XBLNR_ALT when posting Invoice via MIRO.
1. I have Defined a Document Class per VAT Book
2. I have Assign a Document Class to Document Types (in my example Document Type "RE" to Document class "43". And select "Generate Official Document Number, with date control".
3. I have mantained Number ranges
4. I have Assign the Number ranges to Document Class.
5. In order to transfer the ODN from Billing docs to Accounting docs I have entered the Document Type "RV" at Billing Document Type level.
It all works as expected except for the Accounting documents coming from Logistic Invoice verification - MIRO transaction. Document Type "RE" is used for posting but my field BKPF-XBLNR on Accounting document remains blank.
Is there any additional step am missing?
Thanks in advance.

Jan-2013 PSU on 11.2.0.3 over GI & RDBMS Homes (StandAlone Server),
Hello Experts,
Please excuse me if it fetches your precious time to read such a long request.
I need your help in applying patch over 11.2.0.3 Grid and 11.2.0.3 on single node stand alone databases.
I downloaded the two patches as given below and unzipped it under the directory /export/psu_grid and /export/PSU_Patch respectively. When I unzipped the grid patch I was little disturbed to see two numbers highlighted(So checked oracle documents and found it is a bundle for both rdbms and GI homes).
But I want to apply grid and rdbms homes seperatly, because I get confused when i read its readme.html file, because it talks about RAC only.
If I apply to GI home seperatly, Should I select 15876003 instead of 14727310 , Please check the below document which I have framed and guide me accordingly.
asm@dat-stb-ora05 /export/psu_grid > ls
14727310 bundle.xml README.html
15876003 p14727347_112030_AIX64-5L.zip README.txt
oracle@dat-stb-ora05 /export/PSU_Patch > ls
14727310 p14727310_112030_AIX64-5L.zip
Got from Oracle docs: For 11.2.0.3.5
BUG 14727347 - GRID INFRASTRUCTURE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.3.5 contains
BUG 15876003 - GRID INFRASTRUCTURE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.3.5 (GI COMPONENTS)
BUG 14727310 - DATABASE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.3.5
In this example, the <GI_PSU_number> is 14727347; the <GI_Components_number> is 15876003; and the <DB_PSU_number> is 14727310.
Here is my document: Please rectify me if I am going wrong in any way.
Grid home: /u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid
Oracle Home: /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db_1
Opatch version is : 11.2.0.3.0 ( SO I am good to go with Jan PSU patch i guess)
Grid patch (14727347) > 15876003(GI component) and 14727310(DB_PSU_Number) > I guess for grid the patch# 15876003
RDBMS Patch (14727310)
I will follow the following steps.
1. Validate the Oracle Inventory.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/OPatch/opatch lsinventory -detail -oh /u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid
OPatch version : 11.2.0.3.0
2. Shut down the databases.
3. Run the prepatch script
cd /export/psu_gird
./15876003/custom/server/15876003/custom/scripts/prepatch.sh
4. Shutdown the ASM.
5. Will Run the below command to stop CSS etc.
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/crs/install/roothas.pl -unlock
(since it is not a RAC, do i still need to run rootcrs.pl -unlock, please correct me if i go wrong)
6. Will Apply grid patch.
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/OPatch/opatch napply -oh /u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid -id 15876003 (Please verify if this is the right patch# I'm mentioning)
7. Will Apply psu patch on Oracle home
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db_1/OPatch/opatch napply -oh /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db_1 -id 14727310
8. Run the postpatch script
./15876003/custom/server/15876003/custom/scripts/postpatch.sh
9. Run the following script to enable CSS etc.
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/roothas.pl -patch
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl check has
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl check css
10. If CSS is not online ran the below command.
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl modify resource "ora.cssd" -attr "AUTO_START=1"
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl modify resource "ora.diskmon" -attr "AUTO_START=1"
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl stop has
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/bin/crsctl start has
11. Bring Up the ASM and apply as shown below and same way for Databases.
@catbundle.sql psu apply
12. Finally will run the below command on grid and Oracle.
/u01/app/asm/product/11.2.0.3/grid/OPatch/opatch lsinventory
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db_1/OPatch/opatch lsinventory
If steps are different please provide the right steps.
THanks in anticipation
Edited by: 982955 on Jan 25, 2013 7:56 AMLet me suggest something:
Use a response file for applying a PSU on any Grid construction. It's sounds litte bit like voodoo, but given you did the usual preparation and checking, it's usually just three steps:
* Apply p6880880 for the most recent OPatch utility (you have to do this anyway as a prereq of the PSU)
* Create the response file (execute $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/ocm/bin/emocmrsp - this binary comes with recent p6880880's) and move it to any convenient directory for the next step
* Do "opatch auto ./install/11203psu5 -ocmrf ./ocm.rsp"
I did it this way seven times now, and can't see a reason not to make it my common for the future.
