On the same server running 8.1.6.1.5 and 8.1.7.3.2.
Now ready to upgrade the 8.1.6 database to 8.1.7. Our 8.1.7 is 8.1.7.3.2, in the 8.1.7.3.0 readme it stated:
Database Migration When migrating a database from an earlier release, for instance 8.0 to 8.1, you must complete the database migration to the 8.1.7 release prior to applying this patch set. You cannot perform the 8.1.7 migration after a patch set has been installed Being NT I really can't install another home of 8.1.7. Does this mean I can't upgrade directly from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7.3.x!!!! I have never heard of this before and have done it for other releases. The following is from note 148903.1 talking about upgrading to the latest version of 8.1.7 with the oracle apps. While not applicable to my case, it even states when upgrading from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7, install 8.1.7 and patch to current release and then upgrade the database: You will be upgrading directly to the current 8.1.7 patch set level. You may disregard any admonition in the 8.1.7 patch set README that warns that you cannot upgrade directly to that patch set level. So can I upgrade directly or not.
