Hello Associates,

I need some detail information regarding the CPM Patches released by oracle quarterly.

Is it compulsory to set the CPM patch when it is being realized.
How to set or apply this patch. (either by runInstaller or OPatch utility i am not sure about this)

What is the difference between the interim & CPM patches.

Thanks in advance


Thanks,
Abhijeet Kshirsagar.

CPM or CPU?

Read the bugs it fixes then apply it if you feel you're in danger.

Just follow the detailled steps described in the readme file.

What do you mean by interim patch?

Sorry For CPM Its CPU


As per my understanding.
If any bug comes in between two cpu Patchs released then oracle suggest a patch for fixing that particular bug this patch is called interim patch(ONE-OFF Patch).

Please correct me if i am wrong.


Thanks
Abhijeet K.

Not exactly, one-off patches fix one (or few) bug but they are not released, you get them when you ask for them to fix these very specific bugs.
CPUs are fixes that cover a set of security bugs and only security bugs. They are released quaterly.
PSUs are fixes that cover all kind of bugs and embed CPU. They are released quaterly.

Regards
Michel
