Patching ODA X8-2HA with minimal downtime
Hi,
I am trying to understand the steps and flow to execute the ODA patching in x8-2HA with minimal downtime.
Currently, the ODA is on 19.28 and planning to upgrade to 19.29.
And we have 2 dbsystems, 1 running RAC and another EEHA.
My understanding on the steps are as below:
- Patch Baremetal Node1 (OS --local,GI --local,Storage Rolling)
- Patch DBsystem in Node1 (OS --local, GI --local fails due to node0 error in prepatch)
- Switchover DB to Node1 in dbsystem (downtime needed for switchover)
- Patch Baremetal Node0 (OS --local,GI --local)
- Patch DBsystem in Node0 (OS --local, GI --local)
- Patch DB (Downtime needed)
