Neu bei Oracle: „Database Release Update“

18. Juli 2017 Aus Von Markus Flechtner

Bei der DOAG Datenbank-Konferenz im Mai hat Andrew Mendelsohn bekanntgegeben, dass es zukünftig jährliche Releases geben soll. Auch bei den Patches soll sich etwas ändern. Es wird „Release Updates“ (RU) und „Release Update Revisions“ (RUR) geben. Mit der Umbenennung der Patches hat Oracle – wie auch angekündigt – im Juli 2017 begonnen: Das erste „Database Release Update“ ist verfügbar.

Für die Datenbank Oracle 12c Release 2 sind folgende RUs verfügbar:

Patch 26123830 – Database Jul2017 Release Update 12.2.0.1.170718
Patch 25811364 – Oracle JavaVM Component Jul2017 Release Update 12.2.0.1.170718

Update 16.08.2017:

Oracle hat den Datenbank RU durch den Release Update 12.2.0.1.170814 ersetzt.

Auf meinem kleinen Test-System sind bereits einige Patches installiert:

oracle@nf12cdba:/u00/app/oracle/stage/ [rdbms12201] $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch lspatches
26187629;OCW Patch Set Update : 12.2.0.1.170620 (26187629)
25983138;DATABASE BUNDLE PATCH: 12.2.0.1.170620 (25983138)

OPatch succeeded.

Wir testen also auch, wie die RUs mit einem bereits installieren DBBP klarkommen. Von den DBBP wissen wir ja, dass sie Probleme mit bereits installierten PSUs hatten (man musste sich entscheiden: DBBP oder PSU und bei einem Wechsel erstmal alles deinstallieren).

oracle@nf12cdba:~/ [rdbms12201] $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch version
OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.9

OPatch succeeded.

Die OPatch-Version passt, denn der Datenbank-RU verlangt mindestens Version 12.2.0.1.6 und der OJVM-RU mindestens Version 12.2.0.1.7.

Tipp: ich habe mir angewöhnt, zusammen mit den RUs (bzw. DBBPs, PSUs etc.) immer das aktuelle OPatch herunterzuladen und gemeinsam im großen Patch-Archiv zu speichern. Dann hat man immer eine zum Patch passende OPatch-Version verfügbar.

Also: Runterladen der Release Updates von My Oracle Support, Hochladen auf den Test-Server, ZIP-Dateien auspacken, Datenbanken und Listener stoppen – und los geht‘s mit der Installation:

oracle@nf12cdba:/u00/app/oracle/stage/ [TVDNCDB] ls -l

Überprüfen wir das kurz mit „opatch lspatches“:

Nach der Software-Installation müssen wir mit dem Tool „datapatch“ die Änderungen in die Datenbanken einspielen:

Das wars. Die Patch-Installation lief auf meinem kleinen Test-System problemlos. Und außer dem Namen hat sich irgendwie nichts geändert.
