Section 1: Known Issues
-----------------------------------
 
For issues documented after the release of this OSB Bundle Patch 12.2.1.4.250611, see My Oracle Support Document 2602696.1, Oracle Fusion Middleware 12.2.1.4.0 Known Issues (Doc ID 2602696.1) 


Section 2: Zero Downtime Patching
------------------------------------------
 
This patch has been marked as eligible for Zero Downtime Patching. 
 The type of Zero Downtime Patching supported by this patch is FMW_ROLLING_ORACLE_HOME. 

 With Zero Downtime Patching, a Patch can be applied to a system in a manner that does not incur any downtime. This ensures that the system can remain available and functioning during the patching process. 

 Certain pre-requisites, however, must be met before the patch can be applied. 

 For more information, consult the My Oracle Support MOS Note: Doc ID 1942159.1 


Section 3: Prerequisites
------------------------------------
 
Ensure that you meet the following requirements before you install or deinstall the patch:
 
1. Before applying the non-mandatory patches, ensure that you have the exact symptoms described in the bug.
 
2. Oracle Fusion Middleware 12.2.1 products are installed with OPatch NextGen 13.3 to apply interim patches.
 
The OPatch utility may be updated over time to resolve known issues.
 
You can check your version using the following command:
 
ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch version
 
Versions 12.2.1.0-12.2.1.2 do not require an update. For version 12.2.1.4, OPatch 13.9.15 is required.
 
OPatch 13.9.15 is available as Patch 28186730: https://support.oracle.com/rs?type=patch&id=28186730 
 
Review the following for more OPatch information: 
 
Doc ID 1587524.1 Using OUI NextGen OPatch 13 for Oracle Fusion Middleware 12c https://support.oracle.com/rs?type=doc&id=1587524.1 
 
3. Verify the OUI Inventory.
 
OPatch needs access to a valid OUI inventory to apply patches.
 
Note: This needs the ORACLE_HOME to be set(refer section "2. Pre-Installation Instructions") prior to run the below commands:
 
Validate the OUI inventory with the following commands:
 
$ opatch lsinventory -jre $ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/jdk/jre
 
Note:
 
Make sure the JDK version you use is the certified version for your product.
 
If the command errors out, contact Oracle Support and work to validate
 
and verify the inventory setup before proceeding.
 
4. Create a location for storing the unzipped patch: 
 
This location will be referred to later in the document as PATCH_TOP.
 
NOTE: On WINDOWS, the preferred location is the drive root directory.
 
For example, "C:\PATCH_TOP" and avoid choosing locations like,
 
"C:\Documents and Settings\username\PATCH_TOP".
 
This is necessary due to the 256 characters limitation on windows


Section 4: Pre-Installation Instructions
------------------------------------------------
 
 Set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to the directory where you have installed Oracle Service Bus


Section 5: Installation Instructions
---------------------------------------------
 
1. Unzip the patch zip file into the PATCH_TOP.
 
$ unzip -d PATCH_TOP p38059281_122140_Generic.zip 
 
NOTE: On WINDOWS, the unzip command has a limitation of 256 characters in the path name.
 
If you encounter this, please use an alternate ZIP utility like 7-Zip to unzip the patch.
 
For example: To unzip using 7-zip, run the command:
 
"c:\Program Files\7-Zip\7z.exe" x p38059281_122140_Generic.zip
 
2. Set your current directory to the directory where the patch is located.
 
$ cd PATCH_TOP /38059281/
 
3. Run OPatch to apply the patch.
 
$ opatch apply
 
Note:
 
When OPatch starts, it validates the patch and makes sure that there are no
 
conflicts with the software already installed in the ORACLE_HOME.
 
In case of opatch conflict, you will see a warning message similar to the one mentioned below:
 
Interim Patch XXXX has Conflict with patch(es) [ YYYY ] in OH ...
 
Conflict patches: YYYY
 
Patch(es) YYYY conflict with the patch currently being installed (XXXX).
 
If you continue, patch(es) YYYY will be rolled back and the new patch (XXXX) will be installed.
 
If a merge of the new patch (XXXX) and the conflicting patch(es) ( YYYY) is required,contact Oracle Support Services and request a Merged patch.
 
Do you want to proceed? [y|n] n 
 
You must stop the patch installation and contact oracle support on how to proceed.


Section 6: Post-Installation Instructions
------------------------------------------------


Note on Bug 30584890:


Please apply SOA-UI MLR Patch 31531514 which has both the fixes(bug 30960874, bug 31222412) 
 
Note on Bug 31857456:
 
 Patch added new System property 'oracle.sb.tracking.resiliency.MemoryMetricEnabled" to disable memory resiliency in OSB
 
 1. User needs to pass System property to like "-Doracle.sb.tracking.resiliency.MemoryMetricEnabled=false" to disable memory resiliency. Once memory resiliency is disabled via system property, it would remain disabled during life-cycle of server node.
 
 2. Also, if user does not disable memory resiliency from via system property , then memory resiliency behavior would be driven by EM->Global Properties -> Memory Resiliency (checkbox)
 
Note of Bug 25434715:
 
 (Doc.ID 880489.0) Open setDomainEnv.cmd and search for the line "set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS%" and append -Dcom.bea.wli.sb.kernel.charsetRequired=false to make it look like "set JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -Dcom.bea.wli.sb.kernel.charsetRequired=false". 
 
Note of Bug 30544745:
 
 New JVM property SYSTEM_ENTITY_EXTERNAL_REFERENCE_ALLOWED(Default=false): When it is false or absent and in the case of SYSTEM entity with external reference, OSB is to cause XMLBeans to throw security exception right away. 


Section 7: Deinstallation Instructions
----------------------------------------------
 
If you experience any problems after installing this patch, remove the patch as follows:
 
1. Make sure to follow the same Prerequisites or pre-install steps (if any) when deinstalling a patch.
 
This includes setting up any environment variables like ORACLE_HOME and verifying the OUI inventory before deinstalling.
 
2. Change to the directory where the patch was unzipped.
 
$ cd PATCH_TOP/38059281/
 
3. Run OPatch to deinstall the patch.
 
$ opatch rollback -id 38059281
 
4. Run opatch lspatches in the end to confirm that the patch is removed


Section 8: Post Deinstallation Instructions
--------------------------------------------------
 
Restart all servers (AdminServer and all Managed server(s)).
 
This is necessary to redeploy the original applications and bring the environment back to it's original state.
