What we are announcing All supported releases of Oracle Databases need to be patched to a minimum patchset/PSU level before April 2019 to ensure proper functioning of database links. This note only applies to Database Server installations and the interoperability of database clients with database servers is not impacted by this patch. What action you need to take For all database releases prior to 12.2.0.1, ensure that all interconnected databases are in the below mentioned patchset/ PSU/BP levels or above: Minimum Required PSU/RU | Patch Name | Release Data | Patch Number | 12.1.0.2.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER | 09/01/15 | | 11.2.0.4.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER | 08/27/13 | | DATABASE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.3.9 (INCLUDES CPUJAN2014) | 01/14/14 | | DATABASE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.1.0.7.20 (INCLUDES CPUJUL2014) | 07/14/14 | | ORACLE 11G 11.2.0.3 PATCH 28 BUG FOR WINDOWS **Patch 28 is withdrawn. Apply Patch 29 or above. | 02/26/14 | | ORACLE 11G 11.1.0.7 PATCH 57 BUG FOR WINDOWS | 07/15/14 | | QUARTERLY DATABASE PATCH FOR EXADATA (JAN 2014 - 11.2.0.3.22) | 01/14/14 | | In summary, 12.2.0.1 and higher releases, 11.2.0.4 and 12.1.0.2 patchsets have this fix included, while patches are available for 11.1.0.7 and 11.2.0.3 releases. If you have any other database server installations (e.g. 10.2.0.5, 11.2.0.2), you should upgrade such databases if you would like the older databases to continue using database links with newer versions of databases. What is the change introduced by the patches listed above? The patches listed above make the older databases capable of supporting increased SCN soft limit (i.e. support transactions with higher SCN rate) though the increased SCN soft limit only becomes effective at a later time (after April 2019). Timelines All databases should be at the above mentioned release/patchset/ PSU/BP levels (or above) before April 2019. Support and Questions |
