Summary :
This SAP Note details the installation process for Oracle database patches using the MOPatch tool, exclusively available for UNIX systems starting from Oracle release 10.2.0.2. MOPatch allows for the simultaneous application of multiple patches into an Oracle Home by automating unpacking and applying operations through the use of the `opatch apply` command. The tool supports various command-line options, including "-h" for a summary of available settings. Enhanced versions support newer OPatch versions and differentiate between RDBMS and Grid Infrastructure patches, ensuring they are applied to correct Oracle Homes. Detailed documentation, control over patch conflict resolution, and structured parsing of patch metadata are notable features. MOPatch also maintains compatibility with specific OPatch versions and accommodates installation of SAP Bundle Patches and Critical Patch Updates, with options for disabling default settings via a configuration file.
