OOP RAC Database without downtime

in Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

Hi,

currently I test Oracle prefered OutOfPlace patching method for an RAC database.

Thus I've created an golden image with all OneOff Patches and last RU, extract it to the new home and hit "./runInstaller" to install it over all nodes.

The problem: I didn't found any MOS about OOP patching for a RAC DB environment. Especially I want to know how to switch the instances to the new home without downtime. I only can do this with "srvctl modify database -dbhome new home" but this changes the new target dbhome for all instances and as found here you need to stop the entire database:

Howdy, Stranger!
