I've sifted thru the metalink note 553812.1 and then it pointed me to 550739.1 which then points me to another couple of notes. Is there someone who went thru this and can just give me the freakin cliff notes on it? I tired to follow the scripts but it keeps getting confusing.
ciao,
Brian

If you've run 10.2.0.1 for any appreciable length of time, then likely
the time columns in the scheduler package are stuffed up when you
upgrade to 10.2.0.3/4.
There is a note on Metalink about this and which script you need to run
to fix the problem. It is not included in the 10.2.0.4 upgrade, so if
the scheduler jobs stop working you know what the problem is anyway.
The 10.2.0.3/4 upgrade involves a step that upgrades the dictionary as
well, so no turning back the clock once done: take a backup before, just
in case.
Yes, it is a single step upgrade.
