RAW devices Will be going to 9.2.0.5. Too much else going on to do .0.6 patch OS upgrade, HACMP upgrade then 8i to 9i. PLUS the 3rd party app is only certified .0.5 ________________________________ From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tanel Põder Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 7:01 PM To: ORACLE-L Subject: Re: Upgrade mania Hi, If you go to 9.2.0.6 you should apply the patch 4074633 otherwise starting up your RAC instances can take a long time due some timeout bug in LMS code. Also, after applying 9.2.0.6 patchset, you might run into some OPatch problems, read note 294725.1 to work around it. Are you on GPFS or raw devices?
