Step 3. Use the Right Tools and Features
Tools, Features and Tips for Optimizing Maintenance
33

Tip #1:
Apply Patches Like a Master Apps DBA
34

Apply Patches with Non-Interactive Mode
35
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1
• User interaction is not required during patch application
• AutoPatch information is provided in a default file
• Delays between successive tasks are reduced
What to Know
• Create the defaultsfile
– Execute AutoPatch using defaultsfile option
– Type abort when prompted for patch directory
– Verify defaultsfile exists
• Execute AD Patch using noninteractive and
defaultsfile options
• After defaultsfile created, execute AutoPatch as
follows:
adpatch interactive=n
defaultsfile=
APPL_TOP/admin/prod_def.txt
R12.1: What to Do

Apply Patches with Input File
36
• Potential errors entered during AD Online Patching input
reduced
• No need to remember patching options entered with
command line
• File is unique to each patching cycle
What to Know
• Create the inputfile and execute as follows:
adop inputfile=[pathfilename]
R12.2: What to Do
Oracle E-Business Suite Maintenance Guide Release 12.2 Part No. E22954-13

Apply Patches Using Additional Options
37
• Options can be used with AutoPatch to optimize
deployment
• Many system tasks can be deferred to the end of patching
cycle
What to Know
• Example:
adpatch
options=nocompiledb,
nogenerate, nocompilejsp
R12.1: What to Do

Apply Patches Using Additional Options
38
• ADOP is optimized and plays an active role in managing
the patching process
• Many deferred system tasks are executed in the AD
Online Patching FINALIZE or CUTOVER phase
What to Know
• Do nothing!
R12.2: What to Do
Oracle E-Business Suite Maintenance Guide Release 12.2

Tip #2:
Apply Multiple Patches at a Time
39

Merge Oracle E-Business Suite Patches
40
• Multiple patches can be merged into a single patch
• AutoPatch overhead is eliminated
What to Know
• Create merged patch
1. Review patch readmes
2. Create directories
3. Unzip patches
4. Run AD Merge Patch
admrgpch source_dir target_dir
5. Check log files
• After patches are merged, execute AutoPatch to apply the
merged patch as follows:
adpatch
• When prompted, enter the merged patch name
R12.1: What to Do
MOS Doc ID 228779.1

Apply Multiple Oracle E-Business Suite Patches at a Time
41
• Multiple patches can be applied in a single execution of
AD Online Patching
• Input file may be used with each patching cycle
What to Know
• Use the adop patches or inputfile to apply
multiple patches at a time. For example:
adop
phase=prepare,apply,finalize
patches=1234, 5678
R12.2: What to Do

Tip #3:
Don’t Apply MLS Patches if You Don’t Need To
42

• A language enabled as Lightweight
MLS eliminates required NLS patch
• Disk space used for translations is
reduced
• Base language must be English
• User Interface is English
• Data entered in relevant language
• Reports can be generated with the
language data entered
• Mixing Lightweight MLS and Full
MLS is not supported
• A hybrid of Lightweight MLS and
Full MLS for multiple languages is
supported
• Converting to Lightweight MLS
from full translation mode is
available with Release 12.2.2 and
higher
43
Use Lightweight MLS
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1, 12.2

Tip #4:
Use Oracle Applications Manager (OAM) for
Patch Research
44

Verify if a patch has already
been applied
45
Patch Research with Oracle Applications Manager (OAM)
Review patch worker logs
from recent

Tip #5:
Streamline Technology Stack Updates
46

47
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1: Application Tier
• Application tier technology stack updates can be applied
while EBS patches are being applied
• Parallel execution of technology stack patches and EBS
patches can reduce overall maintenance window
What to Know
• Execute technology stack updates. For example:
opatch apply
• Execute AutoPatch to apply EBS patches in parallel. For
example:
adpatch
R12.1: What to Do

48
• Application tier technology stack updates can be
– Applied to the PATCH file system while EBS is online
– Applied in conjunction with an EBS Online Patching
cycle
or
– Applied as a separate Online Patching exercise
• Sequential execution of technology stack patches
and EBS patches is performed
• A full re-clone must be performed after applying
Application tier patches to synchronize the RUN and
PATCH file systems
What to Know
• Prepare the PATCH filesystem.
• Apply technology stack patches to PATCH filesystem.
• Apply EBS patches (optional).
• Coordinate time for CUTOVER and complete the online
patching cycle.
• Synchronize the technology stack patches between the
RUN and PATCH filesystems.

environment prior to executing database upgrade
• Database binaries can be staged while Oracle E-Business
Suite is up and running (online)
What to Know
• Install Oracle Database software prior to downtime
required for executing database upgrade.
• For example:
RunInstaller
R12.1, R12.2: What to Do

Tip #6:
Expedite Multi-Node Maintenance
52

• Expands concept of Shared APPL_TOP
• Eliminates patch synchronization requirements
• Reduces disk space requirements
• Enables the use of Distributed AD
53
Oracle E-Business Suite R12.1, R12.2: Use a Shared Application Tier Filesystem
MOS Doc ID 236469.1, R12.0/12.1; 1375769.1, R12.2

58
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1: Use Distributed AD
• Available with Shared Application Tier Filesystem
• Patch workers run in parallel on primary and secondary
nodes
• Time to complete AD tasks reduced
• Better utilization of system resources
What to Know
• On Primary Node: Execute the AutoPatch with
distributed option. For example:
adpatch workers=8
localworkers=3
• On remote nodes: Start AdController with distributed
option. For example:
adctrl distributed=y
R12.1: What to Do
MOS Doc ID 236469.1

59
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2: Use Distributed AD
• With Online Patching, expediting patch application is no
longer the objective.
What to Know
• Do nothing!
R12.2: What to Do

60
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1: Execute AutoConfig in Parallel
• AutoConfig parallel execution available for all Oracle E-
Business Suite Release 12 releases
• Maintenance downtime is reduced
• 45% reduction in Autoconfig execution time
What to Know
• Execute AutoConfig on each node with parallel option.
• For example:
adconfig.pl -parallel
R12.1: What to Do
MOS Doc ID 387859.1

61
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2: Execute AutoConfig in Parallel
• Can be executed on the RUN filesystem.
Caution: Changes will not be propagated to the PATCH
filesystem if there is an active Online Patching cycle
• Can be executed on the PATCH filesystem ONLY during an
active online patching cycle
What to Know
• Execute AutoConfig on each node with parallel option.
• For example:
adconfig.pl -parallel
R12.2: What to Do
MOS Doc ID 387859.1

Tip #7:
Apply Patches Before Taking Production Down
62

Apply Patches to a Copy of Production
63
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1: Use a Staged Applications System (APPL_TOP)
• Patches are applied to a copy of production (staged
environment)
• Patches are applied while production is online
• Database updates applied to production requires
downtime
What to Know
• Clone production (staged area)
• Apply patches to staged area
• Take production offline, then update the production
database as follows:
adpatch options=nocopyportion,
no generateportion
• Update production APPL_TOP
• Synchronize patch history
R12.1: What to Do
MOS Doc ID 734025.1

Apply Patches to a Copy of Production
64
Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2: Online Patching
• Patches are applied to production
• Users remain online during application of EBS patches
• Brief downtime during cutover phase
What to Know
• Use AD Online Patching to apply patches to production .
For example:
adop inputfile=myinputfile.txt
• After PREPARE, APPLY and FINALZE phases, patches can
be promoted to production with the Online Patching
CUTOVER over phase.
R12.2: What to Do

Tip #8:
Apply Patches with the
