However, you would not need to rerun the sql scripts (catalog.sql, catproc.sql) unless the new option requires it -- e.g. if you install Advanced Replication later, you would need to run catrep.sql Hemant K Chitale Principal DBA Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd [EMAIL PROTECTED] 19/02/2002 10:53 AM Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc: (bcc: CHITALE Hemant Krishnarao/IT/CHRT/ST Group) Subject: Oracle 8i patch installation Hi, At my site I normally install Oracle Server EE using custom installation, i.e. I install only the products that I need. Now an Oracle 8i patchset (e.g. 8.1.7.3 patchset) contains patches for many products (RDBMS, PL/SQL, Networking, Intermedia etc). If I install say 8.1.7.3 on top of my current 8.1.7.0 it will install not only patches for products that I have in my current 8.1.7.0 installation, but also extra patches as well. This is fine for now I can foresee a problem in future when I install additional products from the 8.1.7.0 CD. Should I reapply the 8.1.7.3 patchset then to ensure that all products are properly patches? Do you see any problem with installing the same patchset more than once for an Oracle server?
