For non-recommended patches, you must have the exact symptoms described in the service request (SR). 2. Verify the OUI Inventory. OPatch needs access to a valid OUI inventory to apply patches. Validate the OUI inventory with the following command: % opatch lsinventory If the command errors out, contact Oracle Support and work to validate and verify the inventory setup before proceeding. 3. Please use the latest Version of OPatch. Oracle recommends that all customers be on the latest version of OPatch. Please review the following metalink note and follow the instructions to update to the latest version if needed: https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showNOT?p_id=224346.1 4. Confirm executables appear in your system PATH. The patching process will use the unzip and the opatch executables. After sourcing the ORACLE_HOME environment, confirm both of these exist before continuing: - "which opatch" - "which unzip" If either of these executables do not show in the PATH, correct the problem before proceeding. 5. Create a location for storing the unzipped patch. This location will be referred to later in the document as <PATCH_TOP>. 6. Unzip the patch zip file into the <PATCH_TOP>. unzip -d <PATCH_TOP> p8350262_102040_Generic.zip 7. Shut down services running from the ORACLE_HOME.
