Guys,
Have some complicated 3rd party software and a number of databases all within firewalls. I am considering (since plans in w9orks for migration to 9i latest release) to wait on applying the patches until after the 9i migration. Especially, since these patches are not part of a comprehensive patchset thus not integrated testing. Also, the doc. for the patchsets says don't install any other patchset - geez!!! Should I apply these patches in 8.1.7.4 just to turn around and apply them again after a migration to 9i? Seems like a waste. Any ideas?
