Questions about post-patch scrip datapatch

edited Aug 11, 2016 5:00AM in Patch Reviews - DB (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hi Experts,

In all readme files of PSU, there is a statement saying the following step need to run for each new (and upgraded) database.

    

     .$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/datapatch -verbose

My questions are:

1. Since this SHELL script does not have a input parameter to specify database, doesn't it affect all databases, or only the one defined by environment variable ORACLE_SID? The instructions however have no mention of setting up ORACLE_SID.

2. Does the "new database" mean existing database which was not upgraded from a previous version, or database created in the future?

Thank you in advance.
