Hi,

I am managing a software that uses a set of 8 oracle databases. I am preparing to upgrade all my databases from 8.1.6.3.0 to 8.1.7.0.0 then apply a patch to the oracle software installation after the upgrade. The software that uses these databases are only certified on patch 2 level at the time of release. Since now the patchset 3 for 817 is available, I would like to get advice in whether to apply patch 3 instead of patch 2. Same amount of work, more benefits. The only thing is that the application vendor does not officially support the patch3.

platform: Sun Solaris 2.8
Oracle EE server 8.1.6.3.0

Any input is appreciated.
