Re: windows users patch advisory

Oracle support confirmed to me that, for 9.2.0.8 / win32, patch 8 (6038279)
need to be installed on top of CpuApril2007 to solve the issue of
unrecoverability.

Hi Niall, thanks for raising this.

The whole release management of Oracle patches by the vendor is very
confusing even for oracle support analysts. I logged an SR about if we have
to apply patch 6038279 on top of CpuApril2007 (5916268 aka 9208  patch 6)
and the analyst told me that CpuApril2007 for 9208/win32 and patch *8* are
one and the same which is obviously NOT the case.

I am trying to explain to Oracle that their communication on patches are
sometimes very confusing and we customers have to figure out a lot
ourselves. It's difficult to assess patches if information from the vendor
is incomplete.

Regards,
Andre
