Yes the DB and GI versions are the same as far as I know.

So, I'll take a look at the Readme for:
*Combo OJVM PSU 11.2.0.4.5 and GI PSU 11.2.0.4.8 Patch 21744348 <https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/ui/patch/PatchDetail.jspx?parent=DOCUMENT&sourceId=2037108.1&patchId=21744348>*

I bet it will explain the components it patches...

Thanks!

Chris
