I'm doing a test upgrade from 8.0.4 to 8.1.6.3. Finished the 8.1.6 upgrade.
Was about to do the patch installation when I was called into a meeting then
got 2 phone calls (this all kept happening during the upgrade also) and had
several people stop by. Finally got back to it, started the patch
installation and soon realized that I hadn't shut the database down before
doing so. I immediately stopped to patchset installation and tried to shut
down the database but I get the following errors:
$ svrmgrl

ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
SVRMGR> connect internal

Is there anything I can do or do I need to restore from backup and start the
whole procedure from scratch?
2nd question: Is it possible to do the patch install and then do the
upgrade? The patchset instructions imply not, but there's a technical forum
response that implies you can. Which is it?
