Applying OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1 patch on OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0

Step 1: Extract 6 files into E:\Middleware\Oracle_BI1 path

Step 2: Stop all the Servers and components ( Stop all components using Enterprise Manager, Shut down BI server and Admin Server using console)

Step 3: Apply Patch one by one on 6 extracted files (16453010, 16842070, 16849017, 16850553, 16869578, 16916026)

Step 1:

Extract p16556157_111170_MSWIN-x86-64 file

 

Open p16556157_111170_MSWIN-x86-64 extracted file and again extract the below 6 files in E:\Middleware\Oracle_BI1 folder one by one

1.      BIFNDN_11_1_1_7_0_WINDOWS_X64_130605_1300_16842070

2.      BIFNDNEPM_11_1_1_7_0_WINDOWS_X64_130606_1421_16916026

3.      BIINST_11_1_1_7_0_GENERIC_130423_1920_16453010

4.      BIPUBLISHER_11_1_1_7_0_GENERIC_130607_0438_16849017

5.      BISERVER_11_1_1_7_0_WINDOWS_X64_130531_2306_16850553

6.      BISHIPHOME_11_1_1_7_0OBIEEBP_GENERIC_130607_1544_16869578

  

In Middleware folder we can see 6 extracted files after we extracted above 6 files like as in the below screen shot.

Open 16453010 file and read READ.HTML document for patching instruction in Section 5


Step 2:  
1. Stop all the components using Enterprise Manager
        Login to the Enterprise Manager and Goto -> Business Intelligence -> Core Application -> Availability path and Stop all the Services using STOP ALL option as shown in the below screen.

 2.      Go to console link and shut down the BI Server

We can get a message like as shown in the below screen

3.      stop the Admin Server using below screen

Then we will get the below screen if everything is stopped.

Step 3: Run the below scripts in Command to set the variables and apply patch for 6 files to patch.

set ORACLE_HOME=Installation drive:\Middleware\Oracle_BI1

set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

set JAVA_HOME=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdk

set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\OPatch;%PATH%
 

Open Command Prompt as Administrator then go to BI Installation Drive

Suppose here we have installed in “E” drive. So, we are moving to E drive in Command prompt

Go to Oracle_BI1 folder in Middleware using command

Run below scripts as shown in the below screen

set ORACLE_HOME=Installation drive:\Middleware\Oracle_BI1

set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

set JAVA_HOME=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdk

set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%

set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\OPatch;%PATH%

Go to 16453010 folder path using “cd 16453010” command as shown in below screen

 Then type “opatch apply” in side of the 16453010

If it is succeed, then will get message like “Opatch Succeeded”as shown in below screen

 

 

 

Now we have successfully done patching for 16453010. Similarly do patching for other 5 files also (16842070, 16849017, 16850553, 16869578, 16916026)

Example: Come back from the 16453010 folder and go to 16842070 folder and run the “Optach apply” command in 16842070
