David, It may not be necessary at all to shutdown your Databases. However, because Oracle has changed the way they load in TDP for Oracle library from version to version, it is sometimes necessary and in our readme's we try to cover worst case scenario. In short, be aware that it could be necessary to shutdown the Oracle instances, your upgrade may do fine without doing so.

The README with the patch says "All the database instances under $ORACLE_HOME should be shutdown before performing the following steps" The steps are copying several TDP files and libobk.a file. Is this really necessary to shutrdown? Don't have to shutdown to install = 2.2.0.0. Thanks, David B.
