In this article I will show you how to upgrade your Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 4 to the first Patch Set Update (PSU).
First of all, you need to check the current version of you opatch utility. Patch 19218456 requires OPatch version 11.1.0.11.0 (or higher).
[oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$ opatch version OPatch Version: 11.1.0.10.4 OPatch succeeded. [oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$
As in my case the version is lower than the required, I needed to download the latest one in: https://updates.oracle.com/download/6880880.html
Select the release “Oracle 11.1.0.0.0” and, in my case, it is a Linux x86-64. Download and place the new version correctly.
[oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$ opatch version OPatch Version: 11.1.0.12.3 OPatch succeeded. [oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$
Better now.
P.S: It’s recommended to read the “readme.html” inside the patch folder before starting.
Next, download and unzip the patch 19218456 (file name is p19218456_121040_Generic.zip):
[oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$ unzip p19218456_121040_Generic.zip Archive: p19218456_121040_Generic.zip creating: 19218456/ ... [oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$
Go inside the patch directory and verify if everything is ok:
[oem@oraem12ctrj001 ~]$ cd 19218456
[oem@oraem12ctrj001 19218456]$ opatchauto apply -analyze
