Optional: Applying Individual OPatches

Oracle recommends that you apply the set of Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System Release 11.2.16 product Opatches together, using the ApplyUpdate script. See Applying Release 11.2.16 for more details.

However, you can also apply selected OPatches based on your operating system environment:

Note:

It is recommended to take a back up of the original configure<OS>.properties file before you edit the properties file for the desired OPatches.
  1. From the directory where you downloaded and extracted the 11.2.16.0-Update-<OS> folder, open configureWindows.properties or configureLinux.properties file based on your operating system.
  2. In the configure<OS>.properties file, include only those products that you want to apply. For example, if you want to apply Oracle Hyperion Calculation Manager OPatch, ensure that the entry CALC=35975910 is present in the configure<OS>.properties file. The list of individual products and their OPatch IDs in the configure<OS>.properties file are listed below:
    • CALC=35975910
    • FCM=35977782
    • FDMEE=36037639
    • FR=35969500
    • HFM=35801686
    • HP=36036321
    • HPCM=35973301
    • HSS=36016278
    • Infra=35983616
    • TAXPROV=35977741
    • Workspace=35980876
    For more details on individual EPM system products, OPatch ZIP file names and OPatch IDs, see OPatch Dependencies and Details.
  3. Run the ApplyUpdate Script to apply the individual OPatch:
    • On Windows:

      Note:

      The following script must only be run with Administrator privileges. 
      ApplyUpdate.ps1 <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>
    • On Linux: 
      ApplyUpdate.sh <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>

After applying the 11.2.16 OPatch, Oracle HTTP Server fails to start.

Use one of the options listed below as a workaround:

  • Option 1 - Use the roll back command to manually roll back the OHS patch 34840232. Ensure that you run the following OHS command only from the OHS home location:
    • Windows - <Local Drive>: /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> opatch.bat rollback -id 34840232 -oh C:/Oracle/Middleware/ohs
    • Linux - /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> ./opatch rollback -id 34840232 -oh /Oracle/Middleware/ohs

    Then Apply OHS Patch 35943354 manually from OHS home location using the following commands:

    • Windows - <Local Drive>: /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> opatch.bat apply 35943354 -oh C:/Oracle/Middleware/ohs -jdk C:/Oracle/Middleware/jdk
    • Linux - /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> ./opatch apply 35943354 -oh /Oracle/Middleware/ohs -jdk /Oracle/Middleware/jdk
  • Option 2 - Use -force option to apply the OHS Patch 35943354 manually as shown below:
    • Windows - <Local Drive>://Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> opatch.bat apply 35943354 -force -oh C:/Oracle/Middleware/ohs -jdk C:/Oracle/Middleware/jdk
    • Linux - /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> ./opatch apply 35943354 -force -oh /Oracle/Middleware/ohs -jdk /Oracle/Middleware/jdk
36300224

Using the ApplyUpdate.ps1 -verify command reveals conflicts between 11.2.16+ patches and older EPM patches.

Workaround:

  1. Stop all the EPM Services.
  2. Back up comps.xml file located under:
    MIDDLEWARE_HOME\EPMSystem11R1\inventory\ContentsXML
  3. Remove the oneoffs folder located under:
    MIDDLEWARE_HOME\inventory\oneoffs
    For example: <Local Drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\inventory\oneoffs
    1. Edit comps.xml file located under:
      MIDDLEWARE_HOME\inventory\ContentsXML\comps.xml
      For example: <Local Drive>:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\inventory\ContentsXML\comps.xml
    2. Locate <ONEOFF_LIST> and delete all rows up to </ONEOFF_LIST>
      <ONEOFF_LIST>
</ONEOFF_LIST>
  5. Use the roll back command to manually roll back the OHS patch 34840232. Ensure that you run the following OHS command only from the OHS home location:
    • Windows - <Local Drive>: /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> opatch.bat rollback -id 34840232 -oh C:/Oracle/Middleware/ohs
    • Linux - /Oracle/Middleware/ohs/OPatch> ./opatch rollback -id 34840232 -oh /Oracle/Middleware/ohs
