Apply weblogic patches on Oracle EBS 12.2 system

Below is method to apply weblogic patches on Oracle EBS system

Let me explain. For example,

fs1 is Run FS & fs2 is Patch FS
Follow below:

1) source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run
adop phase=prepare
2) source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env patch
Apply all the WLS Patches using bsu.sh on fs2 (Patch FS)
 Installing  a  patch
  cd $FMW_HOME/utils/bsu
  ./bsu.sh -install -patch_download_dir=$FMW_HOME/utils/bsu/cache_dir -patchlist=<patch_name without jar extension> -prod_dir=$FMW_HOME/wlserver_10.3 -log=patch_apply.log
  Removing a patch
  cd $FMW_HOME/utils/bsu
  ./bsu.sh -remove -patchlist=<patch_name without jar extension> -prod_dir=$FMW_HOME/wlserver_10.3

  List the patches applied

  cd $FMW_HOME/utils/bsu
 ./bsu.sh -report -bea_home=$FMW_HOME -output_file=bsu_patch_report.log
3) source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run
adop phase=finalize
adop phase=cutover
adop phase=cleanup
4) source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run
adop phase=fs_clone

Oracle Weblogic PSU Patching Process

1.    Introduction:

Read out all important oracle patching related documents and verify whether it applies for our database version or not.

              http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14759_01/doc.32/e14143/commands.htm

2.    Backup of Database/Application & Weblogic home.

Before applying any patches in database, kindly take a backup as follows.

-       Full database

-       Full Application

-       Weblogic home

3.    Download Weblogic CPU patches from ORACLE site

- unzip p29633432_1036_Generic.zip to {MW_HOME}/utils/bsu/cache_dir.

source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run and adop phase=prepare

-          source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env patch and apply patch (p29633432_1036_Generic.zip) on patch file system with bsu.sh command

-          Command:

./bsu.sh -install -patch_download_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/utils/bsu/cache_dir -patchlist=MXLE -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3

-           

-          The above patch will have following 5 conflict patches, hence remove conflict patches first and proceed with main patch.

                Remove conflicts:

              1] bash-4.4$ ./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=PSVV -verbose -remove  ------> Removed without any conflicts

              2] bash-4.4$ ./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=7P2C -verbose -remove  ------> Removed without any conflicts

              3] bash-4.4$ ./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=45ET -verbose -remove  ------> Removed without any conflicts

              4] bash-4.4$ ./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=96N5  -verbose -remove  ------> Removed without any conflicts

              5] bash-4.4$ ./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=FMJJ  -verbose -remove  ------> Removed ( It has conflicts: 7P2C,96N5 , so                      removed in step2,4)

Apply main patch:

./bsu.sh -install -patch_download_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/utils/bsu/cache_dir -patchlist=MXLE -prod_dir=/erp_appl/apps/fs2/FMW_Home/wlserver_10.3

-          source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run and adop phase=cutover

-          source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run and adop phase=cleanup

4. Perform Sanity Test

Post successful patching, perform basic sanity test and release it to end users if everything is fine and as expected

5.    Run FS_CLONE

source /erp_appl/apps/EBSapps.env run and adop phase=fs_clone
