Patch Number: 16229450 availale via metalink (oracle support)
Patch Filename: p16229450_111200_Generic.zip
Download the patch, unzip it and make it available and all servers you want to patch OIM. Read the Readme (that's what it is for).
Make sure you have at least OPatch Version 11.1.0.8.3 (I used 11.1.0.9.0). Also make sure you have recent backups of your file system and repository database.
1. Stop all OIM- and SOA-Servers in your OIM-Domain.
2. Change to the directory where you have unzipped the patch and
[oim0@server0 16229450]$ opatch apply

Patch history file: /opt/idm0/mwh/idm0/cfgtoollogs/opatch/opatch_history.txt
OPatch detects the Middleware Home as "/opt/idm0/mwh"
OPatch will do the following:
[Oracle Home discovery] : Configure and Validate Oracle Home info.
[Prerequisite for apply] : Invoke prerequisites to see if patch can be applied.
[Patch conflict detection for apply patch] : Check if any conflict with already installed patches in Oracle Home.
ApplySession applying interim patch '16229450' to OH '/opt/idm0/mwh/idm0'
Running prerequisite checks...
To continue, OPatch will do the following:
[Back up for restore] : Back up 92 files for Oracle Home restore in case of patching error.
[Back up for rollback] : Back up 86 files for future patch rollback.
[Patch Oracle Home for apply] : Copy 86 file(s) to Oracle Home.
[Update inventory for apply] : Modify the inventory to record patch [16229450].
[Post-script processing] : Excute post script for patch [16229450].

OPatch detected non-cluster Oracle Home from the inventory and will patch the local system only.
Please shutdown Oracle instances running out of this ORACLE_HOME on the local system.
(Oracle Home = '/opt/idm0/mwh/idm0')
Is the local system ready for patching? [y|n]

The local system has been patched and can be restarted.
OPatch succeeded.
3. confirm all prompts and repeat opatch apply on all cluster members (if you don't have your middleware home on shared storage).
4. After opatch succeeds you have to edit the file OIM_ORACLE_HOME/server/bin/patch_oim_wls.profile which is needed for the next update step. The file already contains all needed values but they have to be changed to fit the local environment (I have no idea why the patch mechanism does not do this automatically). You may specify your weblogic and db passwords in that file but you also can enter them interactively. The file is write-protected, for whatever reason.
5. Start all servers in OIM domain (AdminServer, soa_server1, oim_server1, and all others if clustered)
Execute patch_oim_wls.sh (and enter passwords if not already done in profile-file):
[oim0@server0 bin]$ . ./patch_oim_wls.sh
Buildfile: /opt/idm0/mwh/idm0/server/setup/deploy-files/automation.xml
[input]Enter the oim db password:
[input]Enter MDS db password:
[input]Enter Weblogic password:
[input]Enter OIM password:
6. It is very important to check patch_oim_wls.log, because patch_oim_wls.sh does not generate any output. So check patch_oim_wls.log and see if everything went fine. I first had following error message:
BUILD FAILED
/opt/idm0/mwh/idm0/server/setup/deploy-files/automation.xml:132: The following error occurred while executing this line:
/opt/idm0/mwh/idm0/server/setup/deploy-files/automation.xml:77: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
So obviously I did not enter the correct schema password.
Be careful, a "BUILD SUCCESSFUL" does not mean there were no errors before, so take a look at the whole file.
If the script fails, it can simply be re-executed.
7. If this is a clustered environment, repeat steps 4, 5 and 6 on every cluster member. The script recognizes all changes already commited to the repository database.
8. Restart all servers in OIM domain.
9. Check if everything is fine and the version now is 11.1.2.0.4.
I thought you could check the version with the following SQL query in OIM repository:
I thought you could check the version with the following SQL query in OIM repository:
select XSD_KEY, XSD_CODE, XSD_VALUE, XSD_CREATE, XSD_UPDATE from XSD;
But this is not the case anymore, the output is still:
XSD_KEY XSD_CODE XSD_VALUE
