Concerns About Prior Error Correction Support Policypp yNote 1195034.1
This led to…Version 3: February 2011
One off patches built for “Is EBS 12.1.1 desupported?”“Is EBS 12.1.2 desupported?”
One-off patches built forsuite-wide EBS
RUP minimum baselines.
Exception requests forthose “releases”New patches required
suite-wide EBS 12.1.3 RUP.
Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.21
Release Update Packs Aren’t “Base Releases”
Base releases get updates
p
Base releases are 12.0, 12.1Updates include:
– Release Update Packs– Critical Patch Updates– One-off patches
Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.22
Relaxing Prerequisites for EBS 12.1 Patchesg qNote 1195034.1
Version 4: March 2013Version 3: February 2011
One off patches built for One-off patches built for EBS 12.1 base release.
One-off patches built forsuite-wide EBS
RUP minimum baselines.
New patches require 12.1.3 Family Packs.New patches required
suite-wide EBS 12.1.3 RUP.
Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.23
Faster, Simpler Patches, pAssuming 12.1.3 Family Packs as minimum prerequisites means:
– Patches will be simpler and smaller– Patches can be produced more quickly for the vast majority of customers who have already
applied the 12.1.3 family packs – Patches will be tested by Oracle in environments that are likely to closely match the customer
environmentenvironment– Customers can more easily obtain existing patches
What if I haven’t applied the minimum prerequisites? Y t “d t d”– You are not “desupported”
– Oracle will recommend that you apply the minimum prerequisites to consume a one-off patch – In cases of urgent business need, Oracle will evaluate the feasibility of creating one-off patches
without the established minimum prerequisites
Copyright © 2012, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved.24
without the established minimum prerequisites.
You are likely closer to 12.1.3 than you realize y y
Many patches created after 12.1.3 include files from 12.1.3 Use Patch Wizard to compare your current system to 12.1.3 Family Pack contentsP d t th t ’ t h d ill lik l b ff t d b l iProduct areas that you’ve patched will likely be unaffected by applying 12.1.3 Family Packs
