It is a full DB down, yes, but you only need to patch the OJVM if you are using
the OJVM. Not too many sites run Java in the database.

In reading the instructions on applying these (latest one is 22674687) to
11.2.0.4 Oracle RAC environment, it appears I have to shutdown the database
to apply. I'm hoping someone on this list will tell me I just read it wrong!
Is there a way to apply the JavaVM patches one node at a time without
shutting down the database?
Thanks!
