Installing  Patch  Set  Update  using  EM12c    Author:  Rob  Zoeteweij    Date:  22-­‐2-­‐2012  http://oemgc.wordpress.com    The  integration  between  EM12c  and  My  Oracle  Support  provides  us  with  a  constant  inside  on  available  and  relevant  patches.  Based  on  this  integration  we  can  access  all  patch  information  in  MOS  instantly  from  Enterprise  Manager  and  create  a  Patch  Plan,  Analyse  included  Patches  and  start  the  actual  deployment  to  multiple  Targets.    In  this  paper  we  will  see  that  the  installation  of  a  Patch  Set  Update  using  EM12c  is  as  easy  as  1,2,3    

 Figure  1  Patch  Recommendations  in  Console  Home  page  

Assuming  you  have  configured  the  integration  between  EM12c  and  My  Oracle  Support,  the  Enterprise  Summary  Page  will  keep  track  of  any  Patch  Recommendations  if  any.    As  you  can  see  in  this  example  there  are  several  recommendations  available.  Let’s  take  a  closer  look  by  selecting  the  All  Recommendations  link  

 

 Figure  2  Patch  Recommendations  in  MOS  

 The  link  will  navigate  you  to  an  overview  page  showing  you  all  recommendations  available.    For  this  example  we  will  install  Database  Patch  Set  Update  11.2.0.3.1  on  both  the  orcl1.mycorpdomain.com  and  orcl2.mycorpdomain.com  databases.    First  we  select  both  rows  in  the  page    

   Having  both  rows  selected,  we  select  Add  To  Plan  à  Add  To  New…    By  this  we  will  create  a  so-­‐called  “Patch  Plan”  and  add  both  Patch  deployments  to  it.    

   We  will  name  the  Plan  “MyPatchPlan1”  and  press  [Create  Plan]    

   

   The  right  upper  part  of  the  page  shows  the  message  “Plan  MyPatchPlan1  has  been  created”  and  includes  the  link  View  Plan    

 Figure  3  Patch  Plan  overview  in  My  Oracle  Support  

This  link  will  take  you  to  the  overview  page  of  the  Patch  Plan  you  have  created.    If  we  want  can  add  additional  Patches  to  the  plan  by  pressing  [Add  Patch…],  but  for  this  example  we  will  limit  the  plan  to  the  currently  selected  Patches.    Press  [Next]  

 

   We  will  leave  the  Stage  Location  as  is    We  have  selected  “Oracle  Home  Preferred  Credentials”  to  make  sure  the  correct  values  will  be  used  and  selected:  

• NC-­‐HOST-­‐ORACLE  • NC-­‐HOST-­‐ROOT  

 Press  [Next]    

   The  system  indicates  that  we  need  to  perform  a  Validation  of  this  plan  so  we  press  [Analyze]    

   The  message  bar  shows  “Analysis  In  Progress”  and  the  link  Show  Detailed  Progress    Selecting  this  link  would  take  you  to  a  detailed  overview  of  the  progress  of  the  Analysis  of  the  Patch  Plan    

   

   Then  after  analysis  has  been  completed  successful,  the  page  will  show  the  message  “Ready  for  Deployment”.    Press  [Next]    

 Next  a  review  page  is  shown    We  will  now  press  [Deploy]  to  activate  the  actual  deployment  of  the  patches    

   The  “Deployment  in  Progress”  message  bar  includes  the  Show  Detailed  Progress  link  allowing  you  to  view  the  exact  steps  being  run  by  the  OMS.

 Figure  5  Both  Databases  orcl1  and  orcl2  put  in  Blackout  during  the  deployment  of  the  Patch  

 When  taking  a  look  at  the  Database  Overview  Page  we  will  notice  that  both  Databases  orcl1  and  orcl2  are  put  in  Blackout  by  the  Deployment  Procedure.    

   After  some  time  the  Deployment  Pages  show  the  message  that  the  deployment  was  successful.    

   Notice  that  the  bottom  of  the  page  shows  the  Save  as  Template  link    Selecting  this  link  allows  you  to  create  a  Patch  Template  that  can  be  reused  later  for  applying  the  same  patch  to  other  Targets    

 Press  [Create  Template]    

   The  right  upper  corner  of  the  page  shows  the  message  that  the  Template  has  been  created  and  allows  you  to  view  the  Template    If  we  next  select  the  OracleHome  that  has  been  patched  “OracDb11g_Home1_myserver1”  we  will  see  the  details  of  the  PSU  we  just  installed:
