This article describes patching a virtualized Oracle Database Appliance (ODA) containing only an ODA_BASE virtual machine. <\/p>\n

Do this patching first on test machines because it can not be guaranteed that all causes of failures of single VM ODAs are covered in this article. I got the experience that precheck for ODA patches does not detect some failure conditions which may lead to an unusuable ODA.<\/p>\n

Overview:
\nPatch first to 12.1.2.12.0
\nAfter that patch to 12.2.1.4.0<\/p>\n

Procedure for both patches:<\/p>\n

Preparation:<\/p>\n

Apply all files of the patch to repository on all nodes as user root:
\n
\noakcli unpack -package \/directory_name\/file_name
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Verify patch and parts to be patched on all servers:
\n
\n[root@xx1 ~]# oakcli update -patch 12.2.1.4.0 --verify

To dry run of ospatch (does not work for any other components than ospatch):
\n
\n[root@xx1 ~]# oakcli validate -c ospatch -ver 12.2.1.4.0
\nINFO: Validating the OS patch for the version 12.2.1.4.0
\nINFO: 2018-09-25 08:34:28: Performing a dry run for OS patching
\nINFO: 2018-09-25 08:34:52: There are no conflicts. OS upgrade could be successful
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

All packages which are mentioned as incompatible must be removed before patching. Also somebody who is able to install and configure compatible versions of these packages properly after patching should be available. Also compatible versions of these packages should be prepared beforehand.<\/p>\n

Before applying patch:
\nIn dataguard installations, set state to APPLY-OFF for all standby databases
\nDisable all jobs which use Grid Infrastructure or databases
\nSet all ACFS replications to “pause”.
\nUnmount all ACFS filesystems
\nStop all agents on all ODA nodes
\nRemove all resources from Grid Infrastructure which depend on ACFS filesystems (srvctl remove)
\nThese resources can be determined with:
\n
\ncrsctl stat res -dependency | grep -i acfs
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Remove all packages which were found incompatible to patch.<\/p>\n

Note:
\nScripts of both patches cannot unmount ACFS filesystems (at least filesystems mounted with registry) and usage of Grid Infrastructure files by mounted ACFS filesystems causes both patches to fail. Check scripts of both patches seem not to check for this condition. In Grid Infrastructure all resources on which other resources have dependencies must exist, otherwise their configuration must be saved and the resources must be removed from GI.<\/p>\n

Use UNIX tool screen for applying patch because any network interruption causes patch to fail. <\/p>\n

Patching:
\nOnly server and storage should be patched with oakcli script, databases should be patched manually. In \/ filesystem at least 10 GB, in \/u01 at least 15 GB available disk space must exist.<\/p>\n

All commands have to be executed on primary ODA node as user root. The http server error at end of server patching can be ignored.<\/p>\n
