PATCH RECOMMENDATIONS PAGE SHOWS DB PATCHES ALREADY APPLIED

I applied the latest APR PSU to all our oracle RAC 11gR2 databases. However the Patch Recommendations page from Grid control 11g still shows that the patches have not been applied. I need to stop receiving these misleading patch recommendations, as my senior management uses Grid control to view/get the latest information on all databases. How can I get Patch Recommendations page to sync with the correct patch list for my targets?

Try moving the files in /export/home/var/sadm/patch and /export/home/var/sadm/patch back to their correct locations.
You might then find that updatemanager works as expected again. Did you ever stop to think what those directories were used for?

Which patches are already applied

Hi,
how can I requeste from the database which patches are already applied ?
select * from TABLENAME ;
I have forgotten the name of table or view.
Many thanks before.

If you want to see installed product versions, then you can use V$VERSION and DBA_REGISTRY dictionary views (the last one 9i onwards).

Critical Patch Updates - already applied

Does anyone know how to get a list of Critical Patch Updates already applied on a system.
I am aware that from 11.5.10.2 with ATG 6 onwards all CPU's are cumulative. However I also believe that there is no current way to get a list of CPU's applied - Oracle have not yet created a script for this purpose. I believe the only way is to look at each CPU document and try to crossmatch the patch number to ad_bugs.
Does anyone have a better method than this or a script already created ?
Jim

Hi Jim;
I belive you should use Critical Patch Updates and Security Alerts and check those patch avaliable by using Opatch utulity and from ad_bugs table

HOW to find out the tablespace space utilized by a patch after applying the

someone has already applied the patch in test env before recording the tablespace size , so I cannot find out the figure in test env.
So is there any general practice or general guidelines on it?
hOW to find out the tablespace space utilized by a patch after applying the patch?
Thanks & Regards,
Sree.

I think there is no direct way to determine what tablespace is utilized by a patch from the README file. You could check the content of the patch file and see what modules are affected (assuming there are changes and the database level), then query DBA_USERS (DEFAULT_TABLESPACE column) for those schemas which are updated by a patch. Or, you could check the size of the tablespaces before and after applying the patch and you will determine what tablespaces have been utilized (provided that the application services are down, and none of the application users is connected to the application).
Thanks,
Hussein

Which patch to apply in OEM 12c 12.1.0.4 - PSU or Bundle patch

Hello All,
Could you please help me to understand - which patch to apply in OEM 12c 12.1.0.4 - PSU or Budle patch ? Per doc id - Enterprise Manager 12.1.0.4.0 (PS3) Master Bundle Patch List for Agent and Plug-ins (OMS and Agent side) (Doc ID 1900943.1) -
which of the below mentioned patch to be applied in OMS ?
1> System Patch 12.1.0.4.10 - Patch 20675595 (This is a single Sytem patch that includes all the OMS-Side Plug-in Bundles released this month as well as OMS-side Plug-ins released in previous months.)
or
2> For 12.1.0.4, this is Patch: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/BugDisplay?parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=1900943.1&id=20392036https://updates.oracle.com/ARULink/PatchDetails/process_form?parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=1900943.1&aru=20392036 &patch_password=&no_header=020392036 (12.1.0.4.3 PSU). Please refer to Note.1995267.1 for the latest PSU patches available for Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 4 (12.1.0.4).
We recently upagraded our OEM from 12.1.0.2 to 12.1.0.4 with out using software updates option during upgrade, hence none of the PSUs are applied to OEM. Now we want to apply latest OEM patches which fixes all the fixes and bug/securities.
I thought BP will include PSU as well but why does DOC id - 1900943.1 says - NOTE: We recommend that you always apply the most recent quarterly PSU. For 12.1.0.4, this is Patch: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/BugDisplay?parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=1900943.1&id=20392036https://updates.oracle.com/ARULink/PatchDetails/process_form?parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=1900943.1&aru=20392036 &patch_password=&no_header=020392036 (12.1.0.4.3 PSU). Please refer to Note.1995267.1 for the latest PSU patches available for Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 4 (12.1.0.4). ??
Please help .

The answer is Yes.
The PSU is core OMS patches (think console, incident rules, notifications, etc.) This gets applied to your OMS ORACLE_HOME (i.e. /u01/app/oracle/mw/oms)
The Plugin System Bundle is a compilation of all the latest plugin patch bundles (So for DB Plugin bundle it contains all the latest DB Plugin fixes). The system patch will apply required patches as necessary, skip what's not.
You can read more about the various patches here -

I highly recommend this note as well. It will help identify exactly what should be applied to the entire EM env.

How to check whether a patch is applied or not when we apply a patch using patch.sh in oracle apps 11i

Hi,
If we apply patch using adpatch,we can know whether the patch is applied or not by checking ad_bugs,even with opatch we can check by using opatch lsinventory...
But when we apply patch with patch.sh then how can we find out whether a patch is applied or not.
I have to apply patch 14615390 and 16414360...but how can i know whether those patches are already applied or not. We have jre upgrade so we need to find out whether these patches or already applied or not.
Thanks in advance,

Which patch to apply in ONLINE mode

How can we judge which patch to apply in ONLINE/Hot mode...??
Is the patch readme only option ??
or there is some other way ??

Hi Vicky,
General Patch readme shows you that if patch require down time or no? other than that you need to assume from your server performance wether you will able to apply patch online with sufficenet worker or not? and how much time will it take? also consider the size of patch you need to apply. And then take decision wether to apply patch online or not?
Thanks,

COMPLETE LIST OF PATCHES WHICH APPLY TO 9.0.2.0.1

It seems that there are several patches floating around for
the latest production release of portal: 9.0.2.0.1 (Linux)
My question is simple:
Can we get a complete patch list of all patches which apply
to 9.0.2.0.1?
It would be nice to install the patches BEFORE running into
the issues, instead of wasting cycles on things which are
already patched.
Product Management, is there a way to get this list???

it would be very useful to get a list of these one off patches as they are released - nothing is getting posted in this forum recently regarding availability of patches.
Any bug fixes are a good thing, especially if it means I do not have to wait until Q1 next year for a patch set.

Hi, I don't know how to find a specific security patch to apply to my Oracle database version to fix a vulnerability

Hi, I don't know how to find a specific security patch to apply to my Oracle database version 11.2.0.2.0 (on windows server 2003 32 bits) to fix the following vulnerability:
Risk: High
Application: oracle_tnslsnr
Port: 1521
Protocol: tcp
Synopsis:
It is possible to register with a remote Oracle TNS listener.
Description:
The remote Oracle TNS listener allows service registration from a remote host. An attacker can exploit this issue to divert data from a
legitimate database server or client to an attacker-specified system.
Successful exploits will allow the attacker to manipulate database instances, potentially facilitating man-in-the-middle, sessionhijacking,
or denial of service attacks on a legitimate database server.
Solution:
Apply the work-around in Oracle's advisory.
Thank you for your help

that sounds like the "tns poison" vulnerability. CVE 2012-1675 - Oracle Security Alert CVE-2012-1675

CUPC 7.1 addin breaks outlook after kb2293428 patch is applied

On our Windows XP sp3 with outlook 2003 once the patch is applied and the addin is enabled. You will get the "Outlook has encountered a problem an needs to close" when you launch outlook. Outlook will not launch untill you disable the addin.
Any ideas?

There is an open defect with CUPC. Please open a TAC SR and when referencing your issue give them the bug ID CSCti94141.

How to get list of applied patches which applied using admrgpch

How to get list of applied patches which applied using admrgpch

You can't really get the individual patch IDs from a merged patch, unless you have the log file from the admrgpch run available.
You can, however, get the list of bugs fixed by a merged patch, and those bug numbers sometimes, but not always, correspond to a patch ID. Keep in mind, though, that individual patches often contain entries for multiple bug numbers.
Here's a query that I use to look at the contents of merged patches. It works best if the merged patches have been given unique names, instead of the default name 'merged' from admrgpch. If you run it and see that everything belongs to patch name 'merged,' you might want to change the selected column to ap.applied_patch_id instead of ap.patch_name.
select ap.patch_name
, ad.orig_patch_name
, ad.driver_file_name
, ad.merged_driver_flag
, ad.merge_date
, bug.bug_number
, cp.patch_abstract
from ad_applied_patches ap
join ad_patch_drivers ad using (applied_patch_id)
join ad_comprising_patches cp using (patch_driver_id)
join ad_bugs bug using (bug_id)
order by applied_patch_id;
