UPGRADING
Patching and upgrading:
Patches are two types.
1. Standalone patch (means one of the patch)
2. Patch set(combination of patches)
In ordered to apply patches we need to download patches from Meta link
site.
Before applying the patch we have to backup the oracle software and oracle
database.
$unzip *****.zip
$cd *****
$./runInstaller
