7月最新发布11.2.0.1.2 Patch set update

7月13日，11g release 2 的第二个补丁集更新发布了；9i的最终版本为9.2.0.8,10g上10.2.0.5很有可能成为最终版本，我们预期今后(11g,12g)中Patch set数量会有效减少，而patch set update数量可能大幅增加；这样的更新形式可以为Oracle Database提升一定的软件形象。可以猜想11gr2的最终版本号可能是11.2.0.2/3.x。 附该psu的readme note: Released: July 13, 2010 This document is accurate at the time of release. For any changes and additional information regarding PSU 11.2.0.1.2, see these related documents that are available at My Oracle Support (http://support.oracle.com/):

Oracle recommends that you use the latest released OPatch 11.2, which is available for download from My Oracle Support patch 6880880 by selecting the 11.2.0.0.0 release. For information about OPatch documentation, including any known issues, see My Oracle Support Note 293369.1 OPatch documentation list.

2.3 Patch Installation

These instructions are for all Oracle Database installations.

• Section 2.3.1, "Patch Pre-Installation Instructions"
• Section 2.3.2, "Patch Installation Instructions"
• Section 2.3.3, "Patch Post-Installation Instructions"
• Section 2.3.4, "Patch Post-Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of PSU 11.2.0.1.2 in the Oracle Home"

2.3.1 Patch Pre-Installation Instructions

Before you install PSU 11.2.0.1.2, perform the following actions to check the environment and to detect and resolve any one-off patch conflicts.

2.3.1.1 Environments with ASM

If you are installing the PSU to an environment that has Automatic Storage Management (ASM), note the following:

• For Linux x86 and Linux x86-64 platforms, install either (A) the bug fix for 8898852 and the Database PSU patch 9654983, or (B) the Grid Infrastructure PSU patch 9343627.
• For all other platforms, no action is required. The fix for 8898852 was included in the base 11.2.0.1.0 release.

2.3.1.2 Environment Checks

1. Ensure that the $PATH definition has the following executables: make, ar, ld, and nm.The location of these executables depends on your operating system. On many operating systems, they are located in /usr/ccs/bin, in which case you can set your PATH definition as follows:

   export PATH=$PATH:/usr/ccs/bin
   

2.3.1.3 One-off Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution

For an introduction to the PSU one-off patch concepts, see "Patch Set Updates Patch Conflict Resolution" in My Oracle Support Note 854428.1 Patch Set Updates for Oracle Products. The fastest and easiest way to determine whether you have one-off patches in the Oracle home that conflict with the PSU, 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 Note 603505.1. However, if you are not using My Oracle Support Patch Plans, follow these steps:

1. Determine whether any currently installed one-off patches conflict with the PSU patch as follows:

   unzip p9654983_11201_<platform>.zip
   opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir ./9654983
   

2. The report will indicate the patches that conflict with PSU 9654983 and the patches for which PSU 9654983 is a superset.Note that Oracle proactively provides PSU 11.2.0.1.2 one-off patches for common conflicts.
3. Use My Oracle Support Note 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.
4. When all the one-off patches that you have requested are available at My Oracle Support, proceed with Section 2.3.2, "Patch Installation Instructions".

2.3.2 Patch Installation Instructions

Follow these steps:

1. If you are using a Data Guard Physical Standby database, you must first install this patch on the primary database before installing the patch on the physical standby database. It is not supported to install this patch on the physical standby database before installing the patch on the primary database. For more information, see My Oracle Support Note 278641.1.
2. Do one of the following, depending on whether this is a RAC environment:
   • If this is a RAC environment, choose one of the patch installation methods provided by OPatch (rolling, all node, or minimum downtime), and shutdown instances and listeners as appropriate for the installation method selected.This PSU patch is rolling RAC installable. Refer to My Oracle Support Note 244241.1 Rolling Patch - OPatch Support for RAC.
   • If this is not a RAC environment, shut down all instances and listeners associated with the Oracle home that you are updating. For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.
3. Set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located and then run the OPatch utility by entering the following commands:

   unzip p9654983_11201_<platform>.zip
   cd 9654983
   opatch apply
   

4. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, "Known Issues".

2.3.3 Patch Post-Installation Instructions

After installing the patch, perform the following actions:

1. Apply conflict resolution patches as explained in Section 2.3.3.1.
2. Load modified SQL files into the database, as explained in Section 2.3.3.2.

2.3.3.1 Applying Conflict Resolution Patches

Apply the patch conflict resolution one-off patches that were determined to be needed when you performed the steps in Section 2.3.1.3, "One-off Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution".

2.3.3.2 Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database

The following steps load modified SQL files into the database. For a RAC environment, perform these steps on only one node.

1. 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/admin
   sqlplus /nolog
   SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
   SQL> STARTUP
   SQL> @catbundle.sql psu apply
   SQL> QUIT
   

   The 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 Note 605795.1 Introduction to Oracle Database catbundle.sql.
2. Check the following log files in $ORACLE_HOME/cfgtoollogs/catbundle for any errors:

   catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_APPLY_<TIMESTAMP>.log
   catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_GENERATE_<TIMESTAMP>.log
   

   where TIMESTAMP is of the form YYYYMMMDD_HH_MM_SS. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, "Known Issues".

2.3.4 Patch Post-Installation Instructions for Databases Created or Upgraded after Installation of PSU 11.2.0.1.2 in the Oracle Home

These instructions are for a database that is created or upgraded after the installation of PSU 11.2.0.1.2. You must execute the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, "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

2.4 Patch Deinstallation

These instructions apply if you need to deinstall the patch.

• Section 2.4.1, "Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment"
• Section 2.4.2, "Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment"
• Section 2.4.3, "Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment"
• Section 2.4.4, "Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment"

2.4.1 Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment

Follow these steps:

1. Verify that an $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK.sql file exists for each database associated with this ORACLE_HOME. If this is not the case, you must execute the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" against the database before deinstalling the PSU.
2. Shut down all instances and listeners associated with the Oracle home that you are updating. For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.
3. Run the OPatch utility specifying the rollback argument as follows.

   opatch rollback -id 9654983
   

4. If there are errors, refer to Section 3, "Known Issues".

2.4.2 Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment

Follow these steps:

1. Start all database instances running from the Oracle home. (For more information, see Oracle Database Administrator's Guide.)
2. 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/admin
   sqlplus /nolog
   SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
   SQL> STARTUP
   SQL> @catbundle_PSU_<database SID>_ROLLBACK.sql
   SQL> QUIT
   

   In a RAC environment, the name of the rollback script will have the format catbundle_PSU_<database SID PREFIX>_ROLLBACK.sql.
3. Check the log file for any errors. The log file is found in $ORACLE_HOME/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, refer to Section 3, "Known Issues".

2.4.3 Patch Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment

Follow these steps for each node in the cluster, one node at a time:

1. Shut down the instance on the node.
2. Run the OPatch utility specifying the rollback argument as follows.

   opatch rollback -id 9654983
   

   If there are errors, refer to Section 3, "Known Issues".
3. Start the instance on the node as follows:

   srvctl start instance
   

2.4.4 Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a RAC Environment

Follow the instructions listed in Section Section 2.4.2, "Patch Post-Deinstallation Instructions for a Non-RAC Environment" only on the node for which the steps in Section 2.3.3.2, "Loading Modified SQL Files into the Database" were executed during the patch application. All other instances can be started and accessed as usual while you are executing the deinstallation steps.
