parallel opatch

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

So I have a Linux 7 server with multiple 19.17 Container databases. Each database runs its own Oracle Home inside its own OS account. All databases use the central Oracle inventory.

When you Opatch any Oracle Home, the Central Oracle Inventory is locked, which prevents running Opatch at the same time, on different databases on that same server.

The question is: If I would like to run Opatch in parallel, what are my options to do so ?

It may be a temporary setup (which can be undone to free up the databases again after patching). But, excluding costly options like adding a new server, clustering or RAC. There is an eBS database involved, which doesn't support its container to be shared with any other database instance inside a container database.

Howdy, Stranger!
