Applying Latest Opatch in GRID_HOME  Opatch (6880880) 


[grid@dbapath.com patch]$ mv $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch_old
mv: cannot move `/u01/app/11.2.0/grid/OPatch/’ to `/u01/app/11.2.0/grid/OPatch_old’: Permission denied

You must either unlock GRID_HOME or you can move OPatch directory as a superuser.

[oracle@grid_server1 ]$ cd /u01/app/11.2.0/grid/crs/install
[oracle@grid_server1 ]$ sudo perl rootcrs.pl -unlock -crshome /u01/app/11.2.0/grid

Using configuration parameter file: /u01/app/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/crsconfig_params

Undefined subroutine &main::read_file called at /u01/app/11.2.0/grid/crs/install/crspatch.pm line 86.

If you hit an error like above, here is the workaround (according to this paper: roothas.pl -patch or rootcrs.pl -patch Fails with ‘Undefined subroutine’ [ID 1268390.1]):

# Take a backup of the file /crs/install/crsconfig_lib.pm

grid$ cd /crs/install

grid$ cp crsconfig_lib.pm crsconfig_lib.pm.bak

# Make the following change in that file crsconfig_lib.pm
#From
# my @exp_func = qw(check_CRSConfig validate_olrconfig validateOCR
#To
# my @exp_func = qw(check_CRSConfig validate_olrconfig validateOCR read_file

#Execute relock:

[grid@dbapath.com ]$ cd /u01/app/11.2.0/grid/crs/install

[grid@dbapath.com ]$ sudo perl rootcrs.pl -patch -crshome /u01/app/11.2.0/grid
