11gR2:Oracle Online Patching

 

 / 22 June, 2012

 

 

Online patching is new feature introduced in 11.1.0.6 and oracle started delivering patches with 11.2.0.2.

This patch allows you to apply patch to live database i.e we do not need to shutdown database. This feature is only available for RDBMS home and can be installed/enabled using opatch.

 

RDBMS Online Patching Aka Hot Patching [ID 761111.1] explains internals of how this patching works.

 

I tested it while working on Database corruption issue caused by Bug 10205230 ORA-600 / corruption possible during shutdown in RAC. This bug is present in 11.2.0.2 database which causes corruption when you try to use shutdown immediate/normal/transactional option to shutdown RAC database. As per MOS note 1318986.1, Data corruption occurs around shutdown one or more of the RAC instances

* One of the following ORA-600 asserts:
- ORA-600 [kclchkblk_3]
- ORA-600 [kclwcrs_6]
- ORA-600 [ktubko_1]
- ORA-600 [kcratr_scan_lostwrt]
- ORA-600[3020] on the standby database

Workaround is to perform local check point and do shutdown abort. Patch 10205230 was available for our platform and I downloaded using below command directly to server

read mos_user_id
read -s h_passwd
wget --http-user="$mos_user_id" --http-password="$h_passwd" "https://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Services/download/p10205230_112020_Linux-x86-64.zip?aru=13671866&patch_file=p10205230_112020_Linux-x86-64.zip" -O p10205230_112020_Linux-x86-64.zip

mos_user_id - Metalink aka Mos user id (email id)
h_passwd - Password

To query if patch is online, go to patch directory and run following

 

$opatch query -all online

OPatch succeeded.

"Patch is an online patch: true" indicates patch can be applied to live db.

To apply the patch, we can use following syntax

Non - RAC => opatch apply online -connectString <SID>:<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>:<NODE>
RAC => opatch apply online -connectString <SID>:<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>:<NODE1>,<SID2>:<USERNAME>:<PASSWORD>:<NODE2>,...

Since we are patching RAC database, we will use second syntax

$ opatch apply online -connectString orcl01d1:sys:oracle123:prod03,orcl01d2:sys:oracle123:prod04

You can verify that patch is applied and enabled

SQL> oradebug patch list
Patch File Name State
================ =========
bug10205230.pch ENABLED

If you have multiple ORACLE databases running out of same RDBMS Home, you can enable patch for other database using enableonlinepatch option

$ opatch util enableonlinepatch -connectString orcl02d1:sys:oracle123:prod03,orcl02d2:sys:oracle123:prod04 -id 10205230

In case of single instance home, below syntax is used

$ opatch util enableonlinepatch -connectString orcl:sys:oracle123 -id 10205230

Alert log is updated with following entries during patch application

Patch bug10205230.pch Installed - Update #1

Online patching is very important feature introduced in 11.2.0.2 as this allows you to apply patches without any downtime. Note that if you apply patch using normal opatch apply, it will not be enabled. You can confirm this by oradebug patch list command.
