Hi Sudheer,
Thanks for sharing this valuable information !!
This (Doc 2053709.1) doesn't describes about running autoconfig on both DB & Apps tier.
Please confirm, is this mandate to run autoconfig post completion patching?
Yes, you have to because it is included technology upgrade also. you need down time for this patch.
Thanks
Sudheer
Hi Sudheer,
Recently in my application , after RPC5 patching many objects became invalid.
So I have reviewed and compiled successfully the ones that were missing db_link but still following are invalid and need correction .
Why this invalid objects?
How to fix them ? Please provide some guide.
Many thanks!
Regards,
Kalpana
Hi Sudheer,
I am going to apply RPC5 on EBS R12.1.3. What is the estimated time duration for applying the patch along with prerequisite patch. Which impact analysis is better for the developer to know impact of code if customer have custom code. Patch wizard or autopatch adpatch apply=no option.
How much time duration the patch analysis take for RPC5 on EBS R12.1.3?
Regards,
Ranjith R
