Specify language code if you want to check patch for specific NLS language. You can use the following query to get the list of language codes of the installed languages in your EBS system. The final method reviewed in this post is Blitz report.
Report parameters use LOVs, so you can select each parameter from list. For Oracle EBS 11, You can use the following query:. Each method reviewed in this post has its advantages. While OAM is a convenient way to get the required information it has some disadvantages too. You may not have access to OAM or it is possibly not convenient to switch from the EBS forms interface to just query a patch.
The method of querying the database is widely used among DBAs. Also you have to be able to connect to the database. You can run Blitz report directly from EBS forms interface and quickly get results in the form of excel file. You also can use Blitz report to create any custom report. Applying a patch can update your existing system in various ways, from adding a new feature or product to improving system performance. This chapter introduces the various types of patches, the utilities you use to apply them, and the ways to monitor their effect on your system.
Throughout the course of an Oracle E-Business Suite life cycle, patches are applied to maintain your system. This maintenance process may be necessary for a number of reasons, including, but not limited to:. Depending on its type, a patch may update the system files, the database, or both. In addition, you can apply patches to other tiers according to your system architecture.
Patches generally consist of a top-level directory that may contain several files, and one or more subdirectories. If the patch contains manual steps, then the readme file provides information on using Oracle Patch Application Assistant PAA to generate customized installation instructions.
If the patch does not contain manual steps, the readme file provides instructions for running AutoPatch to apply the patch. It contains a sequential list of copy, database, and generate instructions, which are arranged in sections. However, there may be scenarios where you run only the applicable portion of the driver. In these cases, the readme file directs you to run PAA to generate the specific instructions.
Patch format describes the way the patch is packaged and applied. If a patch format is described as cumulative , that patch contains a consolidation of updates for a given codeline from the inception of a release, up to, and including, the latest release level.
Oracle E-Business Suite patches are released in the following formats:. Patch formats can additionally be identified as high-priority. This means that the patch has an impact that is broad enough to merit application by all customers who have installed the affected product. Note: You can find the latest available patches by logging on to My Oracle Support. A codeline begins with a point release for example, Release The initial Release Additional point releases introduce new codelines, each identified by a unique letter.
For example, Release Codelines and their associated codelevels ease the tracking of patch prerequisites, dependencies, and compatibilities. Important: This discussion of releases, codelines, and codelevels including the diagrams used as examples , is intended solely to illustrate the concepts of codelines and codelevels.
It does not represent any release commitment on the part of Oracle. Patches associated with codelines not only implement a set of product features for that point release, but also provide fixes to that set of features. We describe this unique set of product features for a point release as a codelevel and assign it a unique number. The following diagram illustrates how codelines and codelevels might be associated with Oracle E-Business Suite Release Further, codelevels identify patches for individual products.
A, R Codelevels are cumulative - each one contains the initial set of features plus all the fixes created to date for that product or product family. If individual bug fixes are created along the codeline, then subsequent codelevels will contain the bug fixes. For example, in the preceding diagram, the two bug fixes along codeline A will be included in codelevel A. All codelevels created after the initial point release for a product or product family are aggregated into release update packs RUPs.
To list all the patches applies to your database use the lsinventory option:. I understand the original post is for Oracle 10 but this is for reference by anyone else who finds it via Google. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group.
