Patch 30501932

1) Check and install the latest OPatch utility , which should be greater than 12.2.0.1.17 on all RAC nodes for both GI and DB HOMES.

[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 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30593149
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30585969 
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30586063 
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/26839277
[grid@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30591794

Now run as DB owner grid user:

[oracle@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30593149
[oracle@racnode1 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /media/sf_Software/12201-190115/30501932/30585969

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

      For Database home, as home user oracle:

      1. Create file /tmp/patch_list_dbhome.txt with the following content:

4) One-off patch conflict detection 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/12201-190115/30501932 -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/12201-190115/30501932 -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/12201-190115/30501932

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  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.

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

10)  Upgrade Oracle Recovery Manager Catalog.

If you are using the Oracle Recovery Manager, the catalog needs to be upgraded. Enter the following command to upgrade it. The UPGRADE CATALOG command must be entered twice to confirm the upgrade.

$ rman catalog username/password@alias
RMAN> UPGRADE CATALOG;
RMAN> UPGRADE CATALOG;
RMAN> EXIT;
