Checking Prerequisites Before Applying a Patch

Before you apply a patch, you can check its prerequisites to make sure that it can be successfully applied.

The prerequisites-checking operation:

  • Confirms that the patch is available for download.

  • Verifies that there is enough space to apply the patch.

  • Compares the patch’s prerequisites to the database deployment.

You can perform the prerequisites-checking operation using the MySQL Cloud Service console. See Checking Patch Prerequisites.
