Applying patch 16083653 on RAC
Hi,
We have a 2 node 11.2.0.3 RAC database on Linux 6 with ASM
We are planning to apply patch 16083653 to bring the GRID Infra structure and RDBMS home to 11.2.0.3.6
ORACLE_HOME and GRID_HOME are local on each node (not shared)
Shared storage is on NFS Server We are using Direct NFS to access the database files
Now, the readme of that patch 16083653 states
"2.1.4 Download and Unzip the Patch
To apply the patch, it must be accessible from all nodes in the Oracle cluster. Download the patch and unzip it to a shared location, this is called the <UNZIPPED_PATCH_LOCATION>. This directory must be empty and not be /tmp. Additionally, the directory should have read permission for the ORA_INSTALL group"
