opatch apply -ocmrf file format for silent patching

User_956QM

Hello All,

I have searched in all the wrong places, now come begging here for help:

when I apply a patch ( opatch apply ) I have to answer two questions with "Y", is there a resource file format ( for -ocmrf rf ) that can be shared or a script/bin to generate it. I looked in $ORACLE_HOME/ocm/bin, but that was empty. I need to patch several hundred servers and this would help with the automation of patching ( ansible in aws cloud ).

thanks in advance

So, the database is covered in a few other forums (this one is only for Oracle Analytics products).

You can look at the many categories in https://community.oracle.com/mosc/categories/oracle_database , or there is the developer community forum https://forums.oracle.com/ords/apexds/domain/dev-community/category/3063-general_questions . In the MOSC forum there are also various other categories that maybe match with your question. Find the best place and ask there.

Hi,

What products are you trying to patch?

You are probably in the wrong forum (do you really have several hundreds of OBIA servers?)…

A random Google search returned this: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocContentDisplay?id=966023.1

Based on your answer about the product you are asking for, something more precise could be said probably.
