ReplyHi Users,
I checked with Oracle Team , If I can pass on any Demo patch to User’s without metalink ID & they came back saying I am not allowed to do so , Hence I will not Upload any patches .
This is very good. please include cloning documenst for multinode to single ode on hp/solaris env and also on rapid clone ..
ReplyHi,
I will post multinode to single node clone & rapid clone. I am afraid I might not be able to go to detail specific to Operating System. I am trying to give overview of topics used by Apps DBA. I’ll definately point out specific metalink note specific to O.S.

Replyif i am applying one patch and some bug has been occured during application of patch. it is suggested that new new patch is to be applied what will be the steps ?
ReplySanjay,
In such cases you have to come out of first patch session by ctrl + C or ctrl + D when you restart adaptch again it will prompt you if you want to restart from where you left last time say No & then select new patch you want to apply .

Replymy question is still unanswered…
could you please let me know whats the option “Copy files to destination” in adadmin?
Anonymous,
For Copy file to destination , It checks file version in respective location with one in patch directory & if it finds higher version in patch directory of a product it replaces them with one in patch directory .
Do you wish to copy UNCONDITIONALLY when a target file exists [No] ?

ReplyHi Anonymous
This is from Apps maintenance utilities guide
It signs JAR files (if on the web server) and does the following:
ReplyI have already read this guide but it doesnt answer my question thats why tried ur blog.it generates jar files means???what exactly does it do while generation????
ReplyAnonymous JAR files are java archives (collection of java files with ext .java) these java files are used in java programming on which apps is built . Generate jar files wil generate these jar files in your JAVA_TOP & copy them to APPL_TOP. This option (generate jar files) also create some zip files (java related) & other java files.
Do let me know if you have any further doubt in this.
Replyi think ur understanding is wrong. java code is never shipped. its the class files that are shipped and class files cant be compiled witout the java code. thats why i was wondering what exactly happens during this step???sorry to bug u but i guess u dont have the answer with u….
