Thank you Andrew and Debra. It looks like the upgrade went successfully, at least from an oracle perspective. The users are testing their app now.  

ciao,

Brian

Basically, you do this (standard upgrade methodology):

1. Shutdown everything in the OH you want to upgrade.
2. Install the 10.2.0.4 patchset.
3. Startup upgrade
4. run catupgrd.sql
5. shutdown immediate/startup
6. Run utlrp.sql
7. Done.

The biggest problem I had was the undo setting. I had the undo retention set too high, and I ran out of undo tablespace, and everything froze waiting for my undo retention time to elapse.
