Prepare for PSU
Download PSU
Download the PSU from COMBO OF OJVM COMPONENT 12.1.0.2.5 DB PSU + GI PSU 12.1.0.2.5 (OCT2015) .
Check OPATCH Version
Used the following command to get the version of
opatch
:
/opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/grid/OPatch/opatch version
The output was:
OPatch Version: 12.1.0.1.3 OPatch succeeded.
Since the version is less than 12.1.0.1.7, I need to get the latest OPatch from 6880880 .
Update OPatch
The latest OPatch is downloaded from 6880880 as /tmp/p6880880_121010_Linux-x86-64.zip .
The Readme says:
The new opatch utility should be updated in all the Oracle RAC database homes and the GI home that are being patched.
OPatch was updated as follows:
unzip -o /tmp/p6880880_121010_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/grid unzip -o /tmp/p6880880_121010_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
The OPatch version is now correct:
OPatch Version: 12.1.0.1.10 OPatch succeeded.
Create OCM Response File
The Readme says:
The OPatch utility will prompt for your OCM (Oracle Configuration Manager) response file when it is run. You should enter a complete path of OCM response file if you already have created this in your environment. OCM response file is required and is not optional.
Emphasis Mine
Following the instructions in How to Create an OCM Response file to Apply a Patch in Silent Mode - opatch silent (Doc ID 966023.1) , I ran the following commands for Option #1:
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/grid
${ORACLE_HOME}/OPatch/ocm/bin/emocmrsp -no_banner -output /opt/app/oracle/software/ocm.rsp
The output was:
Provide your email address to be informed of security issues, install and initiate Oracle Configuration Manager. Easier for you if you use your My Oracle Support Email address/User Name. Visit http://www.oracle.com/support/policies.html for details. Email address/User Name: You have not provided an email address for notification of security issues. Do you wish to remain uninformed of security issues ([Y]es, [N]o) [N]: Y The OCM configuration response file (/opt/app/oracle/software/ocm.rsp) was successfully created.
Download Patch
Downloaded patch from here into /tmp/p21523260_121020_Linux-x86-64.zip .
Unzipped the patch as follows:
cd /tmp unzip -q p21523260_121020_Linux-x86-64.zip -d .
Patch Grid Infrastructure
GI Patch Conflict Detection
Ran the following command to detect any patch conflicts:
sudo /opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/grid/OPatch/opatchauto apply /tmp/21523260 -analyze -ocmrf /opt/app/oracle/software/ocm.rsp

Patch Singleton DB Home
Set Up Patching Environment for Singleton DB Home
Since the RDBMS home is not a RAC home, the PSU has to be applied separately. The following commands are used to set up the environment:
sudo su --login
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
export PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/OPatch:${PATH}
Validate PSU for Singleton DB Home
Make sure the patch is valid:
opatchauto apply /tmp/21523260 -oh ${ORACLE_HOME} -ocmrf /opt/app/oracle/software/ocm.rsp -analyze

Encountered Bug in OPATCHAUTO
It would appear that I had hit the bug described in MOS Doc ID 2002334.1 .
The solution is to set up the environment as follows, and reapply the PSU:
sudo su --login
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1
export PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/OPatch:${PATH}
export PERL5LIB=${ORACLE_HOME}/perl/lib # MOS Doc ID 2002334.1
opatchauto apply /tmp/21523260 -oh ${ORACLE_HOME} -ocmrf /opt/app/oracle/software/ocm.rsp
This also failed:

Further Investigation
MOS Doc ID 1933203.1 suggests the cause could be:
A relink error relating to target " jox_refresh_knlopt " typically implies a mismatch of patch levels involving an OJVM PSU patch:
- OJVM PSU patches require that the database home is already patched to at least October 2014 Database PSU ( or equivalent Security Patch Update (SPU) or Database Patch for Exadata for installations using these other patching models ).
Emphasis in original
The recommended solution is to apply:
- Patch 21359755: DATABASE PATCH SET UPDATE 12.1.0.2.5
- Patch 21555660: ORACLE JAVAVM COMPONENT 12.1.0.2.5 DATABASE PSU (OCT2015)
- Post-installation for DB Patch
Clean Up Patches
As I now have three (3) patches to manage, I decided to create a special patch directory, /opt/app/oracle/software/patches , and move the patches there:
mkdir -p /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21523260 mv /tmp/21523260 /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21523260 mv /tmp/PatchSearch.xml /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21523260 mkdir -p /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21359755 /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21555660
The patches were downloaded in /tmp , and then unpacked into the appropriate patch directory as follows:
unzip -q /tmp/p21359755_121020_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21359755 unzip -q /tmp/p21555660_121020_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21555660
Apply DB PSU
Followed the procedure in Patch 21359755 - Database Patch Set Update 12.1.0.2.5 (Includes CPUOct2015) .
Check for Patch Conflicts
Ran the following command as the oracle user in order to detect any patch conflicts:
opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -ph /opt/app/oracle/software/patches/P21359755/21359755/

Recover from Failed PSU Apply of OJVM
As instructed by the previous output, I ran the following commands:
cd /opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/.patch_storage/NApply/2015-12-29_20-33-44PM ./restore.sh
The output was:
This script is going to restore the Oracle Home to the previous state. It does not perform any of the following: - Running init/pre/post scripts - Oracle binary re-link - Customized steps performed manually by user Please use this script with supervision from Oracle Technical Support. About to modify Oracle Home( /opt/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1 ) Do you want to proceed? [Y/N] y User responded with : Y Restore script completed.
After some trial and error, I successfully used the following commands to re-link the Oracle kernel:
export PERL5LIB=${ORACLE_HOME}/perl/lib
export PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/perl/bin:${PATH}
sh make.txt
