2 Patch Installation and DeinstallationThis section includes the following sections:
2.1 Patch Installation PrerequisitesYou must satisfy the conditions in the following sections before applying the patch:
2.1.1 OPatch Utility InformationFor GI PSU 11.2.0.4.2 and above, you must use OPatch utility version 11.2.0.3.6 or later.. Oracle recommends that you use the latest released OPatch for 11.2 releases, which is available for download from My Oracle Support patch 6880880 by selecting ARU link for the 11.2.0.0.0 release. It is recommended that you download the Opatch utility and the patch in a shared location to be able to access them from any node in the cluster for the patch application on each node.
When patching the GI Home, a shared location on ACFS only needs to be unmounted on the node where the GI Home is being patched.
The new opatch utility should be updated in all the Oracle RAC database homes and the GI home that are being patched.
To update Opatch, use the following instructions:
- Download the OPatch utility to a temporary directory.
- For each Oracle RAC database home and the GI home that are being patched, run the following commands as the home owner to extract the OPatch utility.
$ unzip <OPATCH-ZIP> -d <ORACLE_HOME>$ <ORACLE_HOME>/OPatch/opatch version
The version output of the previous command should be 11.2.0.3.6 or later.
For information about OPatch documentation, including any known issues, see My Oracle Support Document 293369.1 OPatch documentation list.
2.1.2 OCM ConfigurationThe OPatch utility will prompt for your OCM (Oracle Configuration Manager) response file when it is run. You should enter a complete path of OCM response file if you already have created this in your environment. OCM response file is required and is not optional.
If you do not have the OCM response file (ocm.rsp), see the following My Oracle Support Document 966023.1 How To Create An OCM Response File For Opatch Silent Installation.
2.1.3 Validation of Oracle InventoryBefore beginning patch application, check the consistency of inventory information for GI home and each database home to be patched. Run the following command as respective Oracle home owner to check the consistency.
$ <ORACLE_HOME>/OPatch/opatch lsinventory -detail -oh <ORACLE_HOME>If this command succeeds, it lists the Oracle components that are installed in the home. Save the output so you have the status prior to the patch apply.
If this command fails, contact Oracle Support Services for assistance.
2.1.4 Download and Unzip the PatchTo apply the patch, it must be accessible from all nodes in the Oracle cluster. Download the patch and unzip it to a shared location, this is called the <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION>. This directory must be empty and not be /tmp. Additionally, the directory should have read permission for the ORA_INSTALL group.
Important Note: In this readme: - The downloaded patch location directory is referred as <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION>.
- The Patch Number of the 11.2.0.4.x GI PSU as a whole is referred to as <GI_PSU_number>.
- The Patch Number of the 11.2.0.4.x DB PSU, which is bundled with the GI PSU, is referred to as <DB_PSU_number>.
- The Patch Number of the OCW Component of the 11.2.0.4.x GI PSU is referred to as <OCW Components_number>.
- The Patch Number of the ACFS Component of the 11.2.0.4.x GI PSU is referred to as <ACFS Components_number>.
BUG 18139609- GRID INFRASTRUCTURE SYSTEM PATCH 11.2.0.4.2 contains
BUG 18031668 -DATABASE PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.4.2 (INCLUDES CPUAPR2014)
BUG 18031740 - OCW PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.4.2
BUG 18031731 - ACFS PATCH SET UPDATE 11.2.0.4.2
In this example, the <GI_PSU_number> is 18139609; the<OCW Components_number> is 18031740 ;the <ACFS Components_number> is 18031731 ;and the <DB_PSU_number> is 18031668. | |
$ cd <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION>Check that the directory is empty.
$ lsUnzip the patch as grid home owner.
$ unzip p<GI_PSU_number>_112040_<platform>.zip For example, if <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION> in your environment is /u01/oracle/patches, enter the following command:
$ cd /u01/oracle/patchesIf the GI PSU patch number is 18139609, as the Grid home owner execute:
$ unzip 18139609_112030_<platform>.zipBy unzipping p18139609_112030_<platform>.zip in /u01/oracle/patches, One top level directory : 18139609 will be created which will have three directories inside it: 18031668 18031740 and 18031731 .
$ ls -1 /u01/oracle/patches18139609 $ ls -1 /u01/oracle/patches/18139609 18031668 <span id="mainframespan"></span><span id="mainframespan">18031740</span>18031731 bundle.xmlREADME.htmlREADME.txtThe PSU patch may include multiple patches and you may notice that there are multiple directories created with distinct bug numbers. For a discussion of the different patch numbers for the GI and DB components of the GI PSU, please see this important note. The GI and DB components are separate patches. When the apply instructions have separate instructions for the DB and GI PSU patches, you must be careful to follow the instructions for the correct one.
2.1.5 Stop EM Agent Processes Prior to Patching and Prior to Rolling Back the PatchYou must stop the EM agent processes running from the database home, prior to patching the Oracle RAC database or GI Home and prior to rolling back the patch from Oracle RAC database or GI Home. Execute the following command on the node to be patched or the node where the patch is to be rolled back.
As the Oracle RAC database home owner execute:
$ <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
2.2 One-off Patch Conflict Detection and ResolutionSee My Oracle Support Document 1061295.1 Patch Set Updates - One-off Patch Conflict Resolution to determine, for each conflicting patch, whether a conflict resolution patch is already available, and if you need to request a new conflict resolution patch or if the conflict may be ignored.
The fastest and easiest way to determine whether you have one-off patches in the Oracle home that conflict with the patch, and to get the necessary conflict resolution patches, is to use the Patch Recommendations and Patch Plans features on the Patches & Updates tab in My Oracle Support. These features work in conjunction with the My Oracle Support Configuration Manager. Recorded training sessions on these features can be found in Document 603505.1.
2.3 OPatch auto for GIThe Opatch utility has automated the patch application for the Oracle Grid Infrastructure (GI) home and the Oracle RAC database homes when run with root privileges. It must be executed on each node in the cluster if the GI home or Oracle RAC database home is in non-shared storage. The utility should not be run in parallel on the cluster nodes.
For more information about opatch auto, see My Oracle Support Document 1339140.1 FAQ: OPatch/Patch Questions/Issues for Oracle Clusterware (Grid Infrastructure or CRS) and RAC Environments.
For detailed patch installation instructions, see Section 2.4, "Patch Installation".
2.4 Patch Installation This section will guide you through the steps required to apply this patch to Oracle RAC database homes, the Grid home, or all relevant homes on the cluster.
The patch instructions will differ based on the configuration of the Grid infrastructure and the Oracle RAC database homes.
The patch installations will also differ based on following aspects of your existing configuration:
- GI home is shared or non-shared
- The Oracle RAC database home is shared or non-shared
- The Oracle RAC database home software is on ACFS or non-ACFS file systems.
- Patch all the Oracle RAC database and the GI homes together, or patch each home individually
You must choose the most appropriate case that is suitable based on the existing configurations and your patch intention.
Note: You must stop the EM agent processes running from the database home, prior to patching the Oracle RAC database or GI Home. Execute the following command on the node to be patched. As the Oracle RAC database home owner execute:
$ <ORACLE_HOME>/bin/emctl stop dbconsole |

2.5 Patch Post-Installation InstructionsAfter installing the patch, perform the following actions:
- Apply conflict resolution patches as explained in Section 2.5.1.
- If applying a PSU, load modified SQL files into the database, as explained in Section 2.5.2.
- Upgrade Oracle Recovery Manager catalog, as explained in Section 2.5.3.
2.5.1 Applying Conflict Resolution PatchesApply the patch conflict resolution one-off patches that were determined to be needed when you performed the steps in Section 2.2, "One-off Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution".
2.5.2 Loading Modified SQL Files into the DatabaseThe following steps load modified SQL files into the database. For an Oracle RAC environment, perform these steps on only one node.
- For each database instance running on the Oracle home being patched, connect to the database using SQL*Plus. Connect as SYSDBA and run the catbundle.sql script as follows:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/adminsqlplus /nologSQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBASQL> STARTUPSQL> @catbundle.sql psu applySQL> QUITThe catbundle.sql execution is reflected in the dba_registry_history view by a row associated with bundle series PSU.
For information about the catbundle.sql script, see My Oracle Support Document 605795.1 Introduction to Oracle Database catbundle.sql.
- Check the following log files in $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/catbundle for any errors:
catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_APPLY_<TIMESTAMP>.logcatbundle_PSU_<database SID>_GENERATE_<TIMESTAMP>.logwhere TIMESTAMP is of the form YYYYMMMDD_HH_MM_SS. If there are errors, see Section 3, "Known Issues".
2.5.3 Upgrade Oracle Recovery Manager CatalogIf you are using the Oracle Recovery Manager, the catalog needs to be upgraded. Enter the following command to upgrade it:
$ rman catalog username/password@aliasRMAN> UPGRADE CATALOG;
2.6 Patch Post-Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of Patch in the Oracle HomeThese instructions are for a database that is created or upgraded after the installation of the patch.
You must execute the steps in Section 2.5.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" for any new database only if it was created by any of the following methods:
- Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
- Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database
There are no actions required for databases that have been upgraded.
2.7 Patch Deinstallation You can use the following steps to roll back patches. Choose the instructions that apply to your needs.
Note: You must stop the EM agent processes running from the database home, prior to rolling back the patch from Oracle RAC database or GI Home. Execute the following command on the node to be patched. As the Oracle RAC or Oracle RAC One Node database home owner execute:

2.8 Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for an Oracle RAC EnvironmentFollow these steps only on the node for which the steps in Section 2.5.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" were executed during the patch application.:
- Start all database instances running from the Oracle home. (For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.)
- For each database instance running out of the ORACLE_HOME, connect to the database using SQL*Plus as SYSDBA and run the rollback script as follows:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/adminsqlplus /nologSQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBASQL> STARTUPSQL> @catbundle_PSU_<database SID PREFIX>_ROLLBACK.sqlSQL> QUITIn an Oracle RAC environment, the name of the rollback script will have the format catbundle_PSU_<database SID PREFIX>_ROLLBACK.sql.
- Check the log file for any errors. The log file is found in $ORACLE_BASE/cfgtoollogs/catbundle and is named catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK_<TIMESTAMP>.log where TIMESTAMP is of the form YYYYMMMDD_HH_MM_SS. If there are errors, see Section 3, "Known Issues".
- Ensure that you verify the Oracle Inventory and compare the output with the one you ran in Section 2.1.3, "Validation of Oracle Inventory" and re-apply any patches that were rolled back as part of this patch apply. To verify the inventory, run the following command:
$ opatch lsinventory
All other instances can be started and accessed as usual while you are executing the deinstallation steps.
