datapatch and central inventory lock

in Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC) 6 commentsAnswered ✓

We are running a 19c Grid Infrastructure cluster on Linux 7 and we're having the below problem:

If we want to patch ALL of our databases with the same patches, we can patch only one instance at any time, on any cluster, because opatch locks the Central Inventory while it is running for one instance on that cluster. It is a problem for big patches, like CPU patches, because these opatch sessions can take +1 hour.

But, part of the patching process is also the need to run datapatch (after opatch).

But the question I have is:


Can we run datapatch on one (or any) cluster node, WHILE at the same there is an opatch running (for another instance) ?

Howdy, Stranger!
