Dear All,

Recently, I have updated oracle version from 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3. Now I am checking the probabilities of conflicts of CPU patching. While issuing below command -
oracle:/usr/upgrade/ora11.2.0.3/db_home4/OPatch>$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /usr/psu_patch/16056266

OPatch version is showing 11.2.0.1.7. I am little bit confused over here. Since i haven't done patching from 11.2.0.1 that's why its showing the oldest OPatch version?

Assist me to know the concept about it.

Ishika

opatch is a product, with a release number. There is no reason why the release of opatch should be the same as the release of anything else. You would usually download the latest release, it is always patch number 6880880 (a number that you will come to memorize).

$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch is not in your PATH.
Why didn't you execute "opatch" with the same call in the second case when you see it works in the first one?

You haven't installed the latest OPatch, as I told you to, have you?
Are you actually following the instructions that come with your CPU?

Dear Mr. John,

I have downloaded the patch "Patch 16056266 - 11.2.0.3.6 Patch Set Update". Which would make my database version from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.3.7. Now, I have ran the Opatch apply through patch locations.
How do I know which one the patch for changing version from 11.2.0.3 to 11.2.0.3.6?

While running Opatch apply -

I have told you, twice, to download the latest OPatch. The instructions with 16056266 also tell you to download the latest OPatch. Your error message tells you to download the latest version of OPatch.

Can you deduce a course of action from this?

Dear John,

I got in read me, that -
"The new minimum OPatch version requirement for GI PSU 11.2.0.3.6 is OPatch 11.2.0.3.4"
Do I need to all the CPU patch from 11.2.0.3.1 to 11.2.0.3.6 ?

Ishika

This is also mentioned in the readme file.

In registry$history, it showed that patch is applied. I am having one doubt. Do version will update accordingly or not?

Do version will update as 11.2.0.3.1 or it will be as 11.2.0.3?

Dear All,

I got my answer. It will not reflect version in "v$version". It will always shows the release not the patch update. It can be seen from registry$history.

Below link is helpful to know about it -
