Patches downloaded :

Patch 29708822 - GI Jan 2019 Release Update Revision 12.2.0.1.190716
Patch Number Description Applicable Homes
29708478 Database Jan 2019 Release Update Revision 12.2.0.1.190716 Only DB Home for non-Oracle RAC setup. Both DB Homes and Grid Home for Oracle RAC setup.
29263382 OCW Jan 2019 Release Update Revision 12.2.0.1.190416 Both DB Homes and Grid Home
28864846 ACFS Jan 2019 Release Update 12.2.0.1.190115 Only Grid Home
26839277 DBWLM Release Update 12.2.0.1.170913 Only Grid Home
28566910 Tomcat Release Update 12.2.0.1.0 Only Grid Home

1) Check and install the latest OPatch utility , which should be greater than 12.2.0.1.14 on all RAC nodes .

[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch version
OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.18

OPatch succeeded.
[grid@racnode2 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch version
OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.18

OPatch succeeded.
[grid@racnode2 ~]$

2) Run OPatch Conflict Check.

First run as GI owner grid user:

[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29708478
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29263382
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/28864846
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/26839277
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/28566910

Now run as DB owner grid user:

[oracle@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29708478
[oracle@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29263382

3)Run OPatch SystemSpace Check:

Check if enough free space is available on the ORACLE_HOME filesystem for the patches to be applied as given below:

  • For Grid Infrastructure Home, as home user grid:
    1. Create file /tmp/patch_list_gihome.txt with the following content: 
      [grid@racnode1 ~]$ cat /tmp/patch_list_gihome.txt
/media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29708478
/media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/29263382
/media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/28864846
/media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/26839277
/media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822/28566910
    2. Run the opatch command to check if enough free space is available in the Grid Infrastructure Home: 
      [grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckSystemSpace -phBaseFile /tmp/patch_list_gihome.txt

4) Check for conflicts in both the 12.2.0.1 GI home and the 12.2.0.1 DB homes.

  • In case you are applying the patch, run this command: 
    [root@racnode1 ~]# /u01/app/12.2.0.1/grid/OPatch/opatchauto apply /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822 -analyze 
[root@racnode1 ~]#
  • In case you are rolling back the patch, run this command: 
    #/u01/app/12.2.0.1/grid/OPatch/opatchauto rollback /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822 -analyze

5) Patch both 12.2.0.2 GI and 12.2.0.1 DB home by running “opatchauto” as root user.

[root@racnode1 ~]# /u01/app/12.2.0.1/grid/OPatch/opatchauto  
                apply /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/29708822

6) Please repeat step 1 to 5 on node 2.

7)Run “datapatch” or post patch SQL as per instructions, if ‘opatchauto’ is not used. In this situation, this step is not required because we have used opatchauto to patch both GI and DB HOME.

On the node was last patched, check the log. Please note if a PDB is not OPEN,  the post patch SQL will not be applied onto this PDB, it has to be manually applied later.

8) Check the patches applied.

a) Run ‘opatch lsinventory’ against both GI and DB homes.

As GI Home owner grid user:

[grid@racnode1]$ opatch lsinventory

b) Query database .

SQL>  select PATCH_ID, VERSION, ACTION, STATUS, DESCRIPTION 
      from dba_registry_sqlpatch;

  PATCH_ID VERSION              ACTION          STATUS                    DESCRIPTION
---------- -------------------- --------------- ------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  28822515 12.2.0.1             APPLY           SUCCESS                   DATABASE JAN 2019 RELEASE UPDATE 12.2.0.1.190115
  28822515 12.2.0.1             ROLLBACK        SUCCESS                   DATABASE JAN 2019 RELEASE UPDATE 12.2.0.1.190115

  29230950 12.2.0.1             ROLLBACK        SUCCESS                   DATABASE JAN 2019 RELEASE UPDATE REVISION 12.2.0.1.190416

9) Recompile invalid objects if any.

SQL> select owner, count(*) 
     from dba_objects 
     where status!='VALID' group by owner;

no rows selected

If the OJVM RU or RUR is also installed, you may see invalid objects after execution of datapatch in the previous step. If this is the case, run utlrp.sql to re-validate these objects.

cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
SQL> @utlrp.sql
