Re: ODA update to 12.1.2.5.0 node 2 hostname reset

Wish I'd seen you first email, though I couldn't have provided a solution. We've got two X4s and two X5s and just went through the 12.1.2.2.0 to 12.1.2.5.0 upgrade on the X4s. We didn't have your problem though we had some of our own on one of the X4s. That involved having to restore the older (pre .2) patch repos, but it took Oracle Support a long time to figure it out. There aren't many of them that know ODAs very well.

The "good" X4 had no problems with the 12.1.2.5.0 patch and only minor problems (had to remove a few disallowed RPMs) with the 12.1.2.6.0 patch. We're applying the .6 patch to the other X4 tomorrow and expect no issues besides the disallowed RPMs. Actually, we did have a problem with the .5 patch - the DB part did not upgrade the 11.2.0.4.5 homes and DBs to 11.2.0.4.8. No errors, just nothing happened. However, the .6 patch did upgrade the 11.2.0.4.5 homes and DBs to 11.2.0.4.160119.

We'll apply the .5 patch to one of the X5s in the next few days, followed by the .6 patch. Later the other X5 will get both patches. It's sure hard to get downtime scheduled, even here at a School District over the summer.

Anyway, good to know there's another ODA-er out there. We'll keep in touch. BTW, we have a VM environment setup with no RAC at all.

Provided that nothing else was destroyed by the update, would changing the hostname back to what it should be allow OHASD to start?
