Re: Preinstall cleanup question

Hi,
We are upgrading from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3 in RHEL6.
Step 1-Check for critical pre-upgrade patches for Financials (Required)--Merged and Applied necessary preinstall patches
---This created preinstall directory under $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK
Step-2:
Now, as per patch 7303029 readme applying 7303029:12.1.0 in "preinstall" mode
Below extract from Readme:
"If you have applied any other patch previously in preinstall mode and do not
intend to merge it with 12.1.1 upgrade driver u6678700.drv, clean-up the
directory $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall after taking the backup of
current directory.
Merge the patch drivers in $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall directory
with the 12.1.1 upgrade driver $AU_TOP/patch/115/driver/u6678700.drv"
So, Should we need to rename the preinstall patches directory created from Step1 before applying 7303029 in preinstall mode?

You need to maintain your pre-install directory with ALL of the driver files from the pre-install patches you applied prior to the 7303029.
However you should be uptaking the latest CUP patch referenced in
Oracle Applications Release Notes, Release 12.1.1 (Doc ID 798258.1)

  • Preinstall cleanup question

    Version 2.18. We are runing the Do Setup step on "9.1-Apply patch 7303029". The text in the Wizard for this step states:
    "Before applying 7303029, if you have applied any other patch previously in preinstall mode and do not intend to merge it with 12.1.1 upgrade driver u6678700.drv, clean-up the directory $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall after taking the backup of current directory.".
    "This step will download patch 7303029 and clean-up the preinstall directory so that only 7303029 remains. It will also verify that the u67780700.drv driver is in the correct location and ready to be merged."
    In reviewing the ad34009s.sh script it shows that all of the code that moved any contents of the preinstall folder to a backup folder has been removed (17-DEC-2010) so the text of what the step is going to do may be misleading.
    Question: We applied 15 financials patches in preinstall mode on step "Check for critical pre-upgrade patches for Financials" and all of these drivers are in our preinstall folder. Should we leave these in the preinstall folder or not? Thanks!

    Yes - I had development remove the cleanup so that it would not delete all the preinstalled financial patches - I will have the text fixed so that it is not misleading. Please leave all the preinstalled financial patches in the preinstall directory and they will all get merged into the new driver.
    Thanks

  • Preinstall mode question

    SunOS 5.10
    DB 11.2.0.2.3
    EBS R12.1.3
    I am reviewing the readMe's for some patches I may be applying to an EBS R12 environment.
    The readMe's say to apply the patch in preinstall mode.
    From the reading I have done about adpatch and preinstall mode it seems that you would normally use preinstall mode for example, when you are upgrading from 11i to R12.
    It seems that each patch run in preinstall mode is staged rather than applied and only applied once the upgrade is complete. Have I read the documentation correctly?
    My question is this, if I am already on an R12 environment should I be installing these patches in preinstall mode as the readMe says or as normal "preinstall mode=n"?
    Thanks in anticipation.

    It seems that each patch run in preinstall mode is staged rather than applied and only applied once the upgrade is complete. Have I read the documentation correctly?adpatch will copy the files to your $APPL_TOP which used by the main ugrade patch driver.
    Please see "Pre-Install Mode" section in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18727_01/doc.121/e12148/T531058T531062.htm#5281339 for details.
    My question is this, if I am already on an R12 environment should I be installing these patches in preinstall mode as the readMe says or as normal "preinstall mode=n"?Usually, you should not apply the patch in preinstall mode if you are already on R12 and you will need to apply it manually unless you were instructed to do so by the patch README file. Please always refer to the patch README file for the correct mode you need to use.
    Thanks,
    Hussein

  • Process cleanup questions?

    I saw an earlier thread that was related to it, but didn't really see any resolution and I still had questions that were not addressed by it. But basically, the issue of trying to catch and log the program shutdown. Right now I have called addShutdownHook and that works pretty well. The only thing is that I would like to have an idea of why it is shutting down, was it a normal user exit, an uncaught exception, or signal? So, first, is there a way to get this information from the shutdown thread?
    There is also an uncaughtException method in the ThreadGroup class. I assume that I can just create a new class extending threadgroup from my main start process and define the uncaughtException. Then just create this new class from the main process and my method will be called whenever there is an uncaught exception? Is there any caveats about what you can or cannot do in this method different than a catch block?
    Chris

    Hate replying to myself, but some additional
    l aspects.
    Seems that the shutdownHook does not get called due to
    exceptions. Is this true? Semeed like it should
    always have been called.
    Second, the uncaughtExcepotion also doesn't work as
    expected. I assumed that I could create a class that
    extends ThreadGroup, override this method and then if
    there was an uncaught exception in this thread or a
    thread that was created afterwards, this should get
    called. Again, doesn't seem to.
    Are your threads members of this new ThreadGroup? Just creating a new ThreadGroup class is not enough.

  • R12 preinstall cleanup

    Hi,
    We are upgrading oracle applications from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3 in RHEL6.
    As part of upgrade, we applied
    1) Critical pre-upgrade patches for Financials in preinstall mode.
    This created preinstall directory under $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK
    To merge the pre-install patches:
    Review the contents of the $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall directory and ensure that only the patch drivers of the desired pre-install patches are present in the directory.
    Merge the patch drivers present in the $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall directory with the Release 12.1 upgrade driver $AU_TOP/patch/115/driver/u6678700.drv.
    Change directory to $AU_TOP/patch/115/driver. For example:
    cd $AU_TOP/patch/115/driver
    Perform the merge using the following command:
    admrgpch -d . -preinstall -master u6678700.drv
    Note: By default, the merged driver is created in the specified destination directory with the name u_merged.drv.
    2) Now,
    Before applying 7303029:12.1.0 in "preinstall" mode -
    If you have applied any other patch previously in preinstall mode and do not
    intend to merge it with 12.1.1 upgrade driver u6678700.drv, clean-up the
    directory $APPL_TOP/admin/$TWO_TASK/preinstall after taking the backup of
    current directory.
    Can anyone clarify the above contradict statement?
    As per Pre-install Patches Report, we need to merge the preinstall directory along with main driver but as per patch 7303029, preinstall directory should be clean-up.
    Should we need to rename preinstall directory created by preinstall patches or not?
    Gone through below link.  But still expecting more clarity on this.
    https://forums.oracle.com/message/9413390#9413390

    Hi All,
    Raised an SR and got confirmation.
    We should not get confused on the Below statement.
    We should apply all Critical pre-upgrade patches for Financials in preinstall mode and 7303029:12.1.0 in "preinstall" mode and then merge those with main driver.
    Clean up of preinstall directory only requires when there is any other patch applied in preinstall mode( which is not part of upgrade ), only those needs to get cleaned up.
    Regards,
    RKA.

  • Cleanup Question on 30gb Zen X

    Why is it that my **bleep** clean up % keeps going past 00%? if anyone knows or if this has happened to anyone else before let me know. thanks.

    Creative has some of the most poorly written software in the industry. Much like ATI of a few years ago they have decent enough hardware but their software is written my retarded monkeys with bi-polar disorders.
    The stupid program will probably finish, you just won't really know when. Let it go for several hours if necessary.
    The programs Creative had /2 to 2 years ago was much better, easier to navigate and actually worked.
    They completely ruined the Jukebox and their 64 bit stuff might as well be running in 6bit, it is crap.

  • Server Cleanup question?

    Hi all,
    We currently run 3 x ZCM 11.3 Primary servers. 1 Win2008R2 (VM), 1 x Win2008R2 (Physical), and 1 x Linux (physical).
    The initial machine (Win2008 VM) was the original server, and has grown to be clunky, and prone to failures. What I'd like to do is decommission this server, and rebuild a new (Win2012R2) primary, with the same name/IP of the original server (to save us needing to modify agents).
    Is this easily done? Has anyone been down this track?
    Also, is there a way to 'clean' the content-repo, which I'm sure has content from long-since-gone bundles, etc. I assume that since the content exists on all 3 servers (they are all designated content servers), the 'real/active' content will replicate to any new server. yes?
    Appreciate any thoughts ..

  • Help! Intersecting lines and cleanup question

    Hi there,
    I am brand new Illustrator CS5 user. I drew this image using the pen tool in Photoshop, and then I exported the paths from Photoshop into Illustrator.
    I have a picture that looks like this, currently. The things I want to change are circled in red. They are the jagged protrustion on the two flag tags, and the overlaping lines.
    I want it to look like this (edited using eraser in Photoshop):
    How do I get from point A to point B in Illustrator? I've tried various solutions without success.
    Your advice is very much appreciated!!

    hoppingbean,
    The flag edge with the zig zag should be a closed path with a fill, and each of the tags should be a continuous single path reaching or going underneath the flag edge (you may close them).
    The pole should be beneath the flag edge and the tags.
    You may see the stacking order in the Layers palette/panel.
    I hope this is enough: three quarters after midnight here, time to attend to other duties.

  • ExecutorCompletionService cleanup question

    I'm using ExecutorCompletionService in a thread's (let's call this MAIN_THREAD) run method to submit tasks to a thread pool and get results of the computation. I understand that when the tasks complete, the results are added to ExecutorCompletionService's queue. When one of the tasks encounter errors, I no longer need to wait for the other tasks to complete and exit MAIN_THREAD. Will this cause memory leak, since results are added to the queue and never removed?

  • Archive + Cleanup question

    I am looking for a methodolgy or application to help me clean out my iPhoto pictures. I understand that I can burn albums to CD/DVD (archiving) then I can delete those albums. That does not, however, delete the actual pictures from the library. I am hoping to find a way to burn my albums, then remove those pictures from the library. My library is very large and sifting through the library for a small subset of pictures seems daunting at best.
    Thanks in Advance!

    How do you delete the pics?
    Do you drag them to the Trash in your Dock, them
    empty it?
    or
    Drag them to the iPhoto trash, then empty it?
    Regards
    TD
    Okay,
    I deleted photos from the iPhoto Library today like I normally do. I highlight a photo and use delete key. It then goes to the iPhoto trash. I then emptied the iPhoto trash and wouldn't you know it the photos are gone from iPhoto and my hard drive too.
    So how do I have all of these old photos in my Pictures folder that I deleted as above? How could my photos be in the Pictures folder but not in iPhoto trash or an iPhoto library.
    I guess what I'm upset about is the fact that there are a couple of thousand photos in the Pictures folder that i thought were gone. So I'm using more drive space than I thought too, right?

  • How To Get iWork Apps Free on iPad 4 Purchased in June 2013?

    Since I've got my new 13" MBPr in June 2014, the iWork apps are apparently preinstalled, my question is, can I get the iWork apps free on my iPad 4 purchased in June 2013? On Apple Store on my iPad 4, the iWork apps show a price tag of $9.99 each. Any idea how to get those iWork apps free on my iPad 4 using same Apple ID?

    iWorks apps for Mac and iWorks apps for iOS are different products, the apps only work on the appropriate operating system. They are therefore priced and sold separately.

  • Macbook pro please help it wont work ???

    hi everyone i have a 3day old macbook pro 13inch its been woking fine until i downloaded lion x this morning and now when i switch on the mac all i get is a white screen with a flashing folder with a ? in the middle.  can somone please help me to get it working again thanks

    If Apple thinks it's a hardware problem, it's not something simple. Take it in for service.
    Next time you buy a computer, don't do so until you're ready to open the box and use it as soon as you get it home. If you had had this problem within 14 days of your purchase, you could have exchanged the machine for a new one with Lion preinstalled, no questions asked.
