Upgrade using Database Upgrade Assistant in Oracle 12c cloud control.

Login to the web page for cloud control and choose target database from list of targets.

Click on Oracle Database, then on Provisioning and finally on Upgrade Database.

Search for New Oracle Home by clicking on search icon.

Click on Select.

Choose Named Credential button.

Next

Expand the RDBMS Pre-Upgrade Tool Checks ( yellow warning sign)

This can be ignored – since we are not using db control.

Continue

Click on search button and choose /u01/oracle for Diagnostic Destination

Click on Upgrade Timezone Version

Let Restore Settings only remain as in most upgrades we will take a backup separately.

A BACKUP OF THE DATABASE IS A MUST BEFORE AN UPGRADE.

Next

Add new Listener - for some reason the upgrade process does not pick up the running listener with the green arrow and fails to continue.

Hence I’ve added a dummy listener – that can be changed later on.

Next

Next

Notice the dummy new listener.

SUBMIT JOB.

Click on OK

On the server – to check the logs ….

cd /u01/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbua/tcloud/upgrade1

tail -f Oracle_Server.log

Upgrade Successful.
