Procedure

Recommended Patches

OEM recommends the following patch be applied to WebLogic Server:

  1. Patch 18040640: SU Patch [T5F1]: WLS PATCH SET UPDATE 10.3.6.0.8

Extract the Contents of the Patch into the Cache Directory

I needed to extract Patch 18040640 as follows: 

unzip -qo -d /opt/app/oracle/em/middleware2/utils/bsu/cache_dir /tmp/p18040640_1036_Generic.zip

Stop WebLogic Server

Since OMS is built on the WebLogic Server (WLS), I need to stop OMS in order stop WLS as follows: 

${OMS_HOME}/bin/emctl stop oms -all

Apply the Patches

Used BSU to apply the patch as follows: 

cd /opt/app/oracle/em/middleware2/utils/bsu
./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/opt/app/oracle/em/middleware2/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=T5F1 -verbose -install

This failed with the following error messages: 

Checking for conflicts..
Conflict(s) detected - resolve conflict condition and execute patch installation again
Conflict condition details follow:
Patch T5F1 is mutually exclusive and cannot coexist with patch(es): 6D9T,WE1X,SRUM

Remove Conflicting Patches

I used the following commands to remove the conflicting patches: 

cd /opt/app/oracle/em/middleware2/utils/bsu
./bsu.sh -prod_dir=/opt/app/oracle/em/middleware2/wlserver_10.3 -patchlist=6D9T,WE1X,SRUM -verbose -remove

The output is:

No conflict(s) detected
