Good morning all,
I boldly applied the latest cluster patch to one of my little blade
servers. However, I don't see anything on Metalink that states you must
relink the executable after patching the OS.
This seems like the logical next step, but since I didn't see it
anywhere (and relinking can prove to be problematic), I decided to let
it go and start up the database. It's only my test database, after all.
My next step is to cluster patch one of my database servers that runs
ASM. This action was suggested by Oracle Support. ASM makes me nervous
because it's crashed multiple times and left no clues as to why. If a
relink is required, and it's not done, it seems to me the first thing
that will crash is ASM. (ASM crashes are spectacular!)
Comments, anyone? Also, if I've missed this in the documentation
somewhere, a link to anything discussing this topic would be greatly
appreciated.
Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
