This post covers overview of applying Oracle Application Server 10g R3 patchset 4<\/strong> (10.1.3.4) on existing 10g R3 (10.1.3)<\/p>\n

Key Points for 10.1.3.4 Upgrade<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> Patch Number for OAS 10g R3 patchset 4 (10.1.3.4) is 7272722<\/strong><\/p>\n

2.<\/strong> 10g R3 patchset 4 (10.1.3.4.0 – 7272722) is cumulative and includes all fixes from 10.1.3.0, 10.1.3.1, 10.1.3.2 and 10.1.3.3<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>10g R3 patchset 4 (10.1.3.4.0) is NOT<\/strong> complete software, you need to install in on top of one of existing software i.e. 10.1.3.n (10.1.3.0, 10.1.3.1, 10.1.3.2 or 10.1.3.3)<\/p>\n

4.<\/strong> If you are on Solaris<\/strong>, minimum OAS version should be 10.1.3.1 (If you are on 10.1.3.0.0 on Solaris, first upgrade to 10.1.3.1 and then upgrade to 10.1.3.4)<\/p>\n

5.<\/strong> 10g Rel 3 patchset 1 (10.1.3.1.0) is starting point for Oracle SOA Suite<\/strong> (BPEL<\/strong>, ESB<\/strong>…) and 10g Rel 3 patchset 2 (10.1.3.2.0) is starting point for WebCenter Suite<\/strong> (ContentDB<\/strong>, WebCenter Services<\/strong>). If you are using Oracle SOA Suite or Oracle Web Center then you need to do additonal steps before upgrade like
\n— upgrade_10131_10134_oracle.sql<\/strong> (10.1.3.1) or
\n— upgrade_10133_10134_oracle.sql<\/strong> (10.1.3.3)\u00a0 (For BPEL from ORABPEL schema<\/strong>)
\n— upgrade_10133_10134_oracle.sql<\/strong>\u00a0 (For ESB from ORAESB schema<\/strong>)<\/p>\n

6.<\/strong> 10.1.3.4 patch set updates DSA<\/strong> (Application Server Guard) ports so if you have edited dsa.conf , reset it back after 10.1.3.4 patch set. – Oracle is moving away from ASGuard\/DSA; try not to use it * More information coming soon …<\/font><\/p>\n

7.<\/strong> It is NOT<\/strong> possible to upgrade from 10g Rel2 (10.1.2.X) to 10g Rel3 (10.1.3.X) Application Server (Till date)<\/p>\n

Top Level Steps<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n

1.<\/strong> If you are using BPEL; Run\u00a0 upgrade_10131_10134_oracle.sql (10.1.3.1) or upgrade_10133_10134_oracle.sql (10.1.3.3) from ORABPEL schema
\n2.<\/strong> If you are using ESB; Run\u00a0 upgrade_10133_10134_oracle.sql from ORAESB schema
\n3.<\/strong> Install 10.1.3.4 Software in same ORACLE_HOME (as of 10g R3, 10.1.3.X)<\/p>\n
