Key Factors Driving Time and Resources12.1 to 12.2 Upgrade

•

Size of EBS footprint and uptake of new functionality – Number of modules and business flows that will need validation

• Number and complexity of customizations and integrations – Compliance with new 12.2 development standards, including for vendor-supp

• Complexity of topology – Multiple middle tier nodes, nodes inside and outside the firewall, RAC, etc.

• Technical team skills – Readiness to adapt to 12.2 technology changes: Online Patching and WebLog

• Other changes you combine with the EBS upgrade – Move to new HW/OS, combine multiple instances into a global single instance

Expectations Around Online Patching DowntimeSet Appropriate Expectations for Online Patching Downtime

•

Online Patching does not mean zero downtime – There is still a brief Cutover phase during which users are offline

• DBAs can choose to combine Online Patching Cutover with otmaintenance activities that prolong the downtime, e.g.:

– Applying custom code

– Updating system passwords

• Online Patching cannot be used for Database and OS patching

– Users will still experience a downtime when Database and OS patches

•

Understand that Patch Edition is not a test environment – Designed solely for reducing patching downtime

– Ensure consistency with latest upgrade documentation

– Use a topology similar to your production environment

• With each iteration, optimize your timing

– Tune performance of core upgrade driver• Identify long-running jobs & SQLs, check MOS for known issues & workarounds

–Minimize duration of tasks done before & after core upgrade driver runs• For example: interim backups, final acceptance testing

• Repeat practice upgrades until the process is predictable and fits wdowntime window, with no outstanding issues
