Steps for Patching
Login using grid user:
su - grid
Create a folder where the patch and OPatch software to be downloaded and extracted
mkdir /home/grid/dbpatch
OPatch installation will go first. Take backup of existing OPatch folder from $ORACLE_HOME directory.
Installation of OPatch Using Grid User
sudo su - grid
backup OPatch as OPatch.org
cd $ORACLE_HOME
mv OPatch OPatch.org
Go to patch folder /home/grid/dbpatch
cd /home/grid/dbpatch
unzip p6880880_122010_Linux-x86-64.zip $ORACLE_HOME/
check if everything is fine
opatch version
This command should run without any issue and it should give you version of OPatch as : 12.2.0.1.39
if everything is fine, take inventory list :
opatch lsinventory -detail -Oh $ORACLE_HOME > /home/grid/GridInventoryListPreUpgrade.txt
OPatch installation will go first. Take backup of existing OPatch folder from $ORACLE_HOME directory.
Installation of OPatch Using Oracle User
sudo su - oracle
backup OPatch as OPatch.org
cd $ORACLE_HOME
mv OPatch OPatch.org
Go to patch folder /home/grid/dbpatch
cd /home/grid/orclsoft
unzip p6880880_122010_Linux-x86-64.zip $ORACLE_HOME/
check if everything is fine
opatch version
This command should run without any issue and it should give you version of OPatch as : 12.2.0.1.39
if everything is fine, take inventory list :
opatch lsinventory -detail -Oh $ORACLE_HOME > /home/oracle/OraInventoryListPreUpgrade.txt
Unzip Patch 35319490 in folder /home/grid/orclsoft
unzip p35319490_190000_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /home/grid/orclsoft/
Check conflicts with patch :
sudo su - grid
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35320081
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35320149
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35332537
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35553096
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/33575402
Same with Oracle User:
sudo su - oracle
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/oracle/orclsoft/35319490/35320081
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -phBaseDir /home/oracle/orclsoft/35319490/35320149
Validate if /tmp has free space:
Login with grid user
sudo su - grid
Create a file in /tmp folder:
vi /tmp/patch_list_gihome.txt
/home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35320081
/home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35320149
/home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35332537
/home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/35553096
/home/grid/orclsoft/35319490/33575402
Execute checking space command:
sudo su - grid
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckSystemSpace -phBaseFile /tmp/patch_list_gihome.txt
Validate if /tmp has free space for Oracle user:
Login with oracle user
sudo su - oracle
Create a file in /tmp folder:
vi /tmp/patch_list_dbhome.txt
/home/oracle/orclsoft/35319490/35320081
/home/oracle/orclsoft/35319490/35320149
Execute checking space command:
sudo su - oracle
$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch prereq CheckSystemSpace -phBaseFile /tmp/patch_list_dbhome.txt
Note: Skip step 2.1.2 as there are no conflicts
Note: Skip step 2.1.3 as We don't have clustered installed. We have only binaries
Now the environment is ready for patching. We can start patching grid home.
Login with root
su -
export PATH=$PATH:/u01/app/19.0.0/grid/OPatch
validate opatch and opatchauto is working here with root user:
opatch version
opatchauto version
if everything looks fine, apply the patch on grid home using:
opatchauto apply /home/grid/orclsoft/35319490 -oh /u01/app/19.0.0/grid
if the patch returned successful, the validation can be done by logging into sqlplus as:
sqlplus / as sysasm

Patching on Grid home done, let's move to patching oracle home
Open new Terminal and Login with
root
su -
export PATH=$PATH:/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/db_1/OPatch
validate opatch and opatchauto is working here with root user:
opatch version
opatchauto version
if everything looks fine, apply the patch on grid home using:
opatchauto apply /home/oracle/orclsoft/35319490 -oh /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/db_1
This will provide output at the end like:
if the patch returned successful, the validation can be done by logging into sqlplus as:
sqlplus / as sysadmin
This should return:
