You can patch separately the two installations for separate bugs i
think, and this is what
Oracle consultants had said to me. I think also that your vendor is
right, if you do not want
to have different versions of Oralce in the same box having separate
OH for ASM increases
management complexity. If you have only one installation i think is
meaningless pathch
db and not ASM or viceversa.
