Hi,

I am using Oracle 11g (11.2.0.1.0) and I want to apply January patch on 11.2.0.1.0. I have applied 3 patches. I have single Instance with ASM and Grid.

Grid home: /opt/grid/11.2.0/grid
Oracle Home: /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db

1. Opatch (6880880)
2. Grid patch (9655006)
3. Oracle Patch (10248516)

I have followed the following steps.

1. Applied Opatch on grid.
unzip p6880880_112000_LINUX.zip -d /opt/grid/11.2.0/grid

2. Validated the Oracle Inventory.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/OPatch/opatch lsinventory -detail -oh /opt/grid/11.2.0/grid

3. Shut down the databases.
4. Run the prepatch script
./9655006/custom/server/9655006/custom/scripts/prepatch.sh
5. Shutdown the ASM.
6. Ran the below command to stop CSS etc.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/roothas.pl -unlock

7. Applied grid patch.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/OPatch/opatch napply -oh /opt/grid/11.2.0/grid -id 9655006

8. Applied Opatch on Oracle home
9. Applied Oracle patch
/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db/OPatch/opatch napply -oh /opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db -id 10248516

8. Run the postpatch script
./9655006/custom/server/9655006/custom/scripts/postpatch.sh

9. Run the following script to enable CSS etc.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/roothas.pl -patch
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl check has
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl check css

10. If CSS is not online ran the below command.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl modify resource "ora.cssd" -attr "AUTO_START=1"
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl modify resource "ora.diskmon" -attr "AUTO_START=1"
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl stop has
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/bin/crsctl start has

11. Up the ASM and Databases. Ran the postinstall in GRID and Oracle.
@catbundle.sql psu apply

12. Ran the below command on grid and Oracle.
/opt/grid/11.2.0/grid/OPatch/opatch lsinventory
/opt/oracle/product/11.2.0/db/OPatch/opatch lsinventory

1. Let me know steps which are followed are right because I didnot see the version change after connecting to database? (for example 11.2.0.1.0 after applying I can see 11.2.0.1.4 but not changed the version). Please let me know How should I know the patch is applied properly?

2. Is the above steps are applicable to HA setup. If steps are different please provide the steps.

Please advice.

Dude, if you are installing the CPU then you will not see a change on the minor version#, if you are installing the PSU (patch set update) then you will have a new minor version # such as from 11.2.0.1.0 to 11.2.0.1.1.

Looking at your patch#, I think you are installing indeed the PSU, which should result in a new version. As mentioned check the output of OH/Opatch/opatch lsinventory and see if you have the 5th number changed.

Hi,

I am seeing the output which I mentioned in Opatch lsinventory but when I connect to sqlplus I am seeing 11.2.0.1.0.

Will not be shown after connecting to sqlplus?

Please advice.

I just installed a bran new GI home (non RAC) and created a couple of ASM disk groups, then applied the PSU for GI, the latest available and got the same result, no change on the fifth version component... I guess it is normal but you may want to ask Oracle support.
