BSU & OPatch commands

Just a little reminder, because I’m fed up with being forced to look for them everytime I have to work with patches …

OPatch

Pre-requisites

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/em.111/b31207/oui7_opatch.htm

The OPatch utility requires the following environment:

• The Oracle home environment variable (ORACLE_HOME) must point to a valid Oracle home directory and match the value used during installation of the Oracle home directory.
  
• JRE version 1.4 or higher, Java commands for Windows, and ar, cp, fuser, and make commands for UNIX must be made available.
  
• The library path must be set correctly for Oracle Real Application Clusters environments. OPatch uses some APIs to detect if the system is a Real Application Clusters system. Ensure that the library path is set correctly as follows:
  

  For Solaris:
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH = $ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$ORACLE_HOME/lib
  
  For HP-UX:
  SHLIB_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:/usr/lib
