All,
Oracle version = 9.2.0.1, OS = Solaris8
I know that this is a simple question but I have just started in this job and thought I would ask anyway - Is there a command that will tell me what ORACLE patches are loaded? I know that the OS has showrev -p and all but I was wondering if there was something internal. Also, Does anyone know of a way - in metalink, to show all of the latest patches without all of the accompaning text, links, etc. I just am looking for a comparison list of what I have and what I should have. Thanks in advance for any help.

If you are on 8i, you could run 'owhat oracle' to get the list of patches installed against this kernel. 9i doesnt include owhat, but since its a shell script, which calls Unix's what program, you can copy 'owhat' from 8i installation to the 9i $ORACLE_HOME/bin and still use it.
Other than this, you could use
thiru@9.2.0:SQL>select banner from v$version;
BANNER
----------------------------------------------------------------
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release <B>9.2.0.1.0</B> - Production
PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
CORE 9.2.0.1.0 Production
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
that tells you the Release,major,minor patch numbers.
