Questions about JVM Mitigation Patch 19721304

edited Oct 18, 2016 5:27PM in Patch Reviews - DB (MOSC) 2 commentsAnswered

Hi, DBAs

My bosses are pressing for this patch on all of databases.  We have a few at 10.2.0.4 that we cannot upgrade at this time, so applying the JVM Mitigation patch is the plan.  The vendor is warning us that LoadJava will not be allowed, and that we can "temporarily turn off the lockdown" load the new item, then relock.

The patch steps are:

1. opatch apply

2. postinstall.sql

3. exec dbms_java_dev.disable

If I run the reverse steps (below), will LoadJava work again?

1. exec dbms_java_dev.disable

2. opatch rollback -id 19721304

3. postdeinstall.sql

If so, I would re-apply the patch and run the post-install steps as originally.

Howdy, Stranger!
