Oracle cloud Infrastructure (OCI) - Part 2 : OCI -VM Server and DB Patching

 


Acronym - 

OCI - Oracle Cloud Infrastructure  

Intro

Security is a major concern in current data era and value of the data is getting higher in every minute .To keep the data secured , organization are trying hard to meet the industry standard compliance scores for their systems. database security plays a major role in any organization. To address these vulnerabilities organizations needs to be proactive to update their systems with the latest security patches. Significant  part of the maintenance is applying the psu patches quarterly to meet the database compliance requirements. This process required considerable amount of time to stage the patches and test in lower environments.

OCI enables really stable automation to all the maintenance work such as patching , creating homes and server os patching etc ... .Also oracle has ease this task by taking the responsibility of staging . 

In-addition, there are many tools introduced by oracle for addressing these work , major tools are 

1. dbaascli
2. exacli
3. dbcli
4. exadbcpatchmulti


To easy the work on bare metal and vm server patching in OCI introduces new tool called dbcli.

We have two ways of patching the database:

  1. Oracle Cloud GUI
  2. Command line tool 

In this article I will illustrate about the commands line patching using dbcli.

Now we will discuss about the steps and best practices for vm patching. 
This patching includes server , db and grid components.

1. Gather environment details

First we need to gather environment details using dbcli tool

List database details


[root@dbsdpl21 ~]# dbcli  list-databases
ID                                       DB Name    DB Type  DB Version           CDB        Class    Shape    Storage    Status        DbHomeID

List of database homes

[root@dbsdpl21 ~]# dbcli list-dbhomes

List storages


[root@dbsdpl21 ~]# dbcli list-dbstorages

List available patches

We need to identify which psu are available to patch. dbcli describe-latestpatch will display the currently patches. Oracle will stage these patches for us, ease our work on staging.



[root@dbsdpl21 ~]# dbcli describe-latestpatch

dbcli -h commands gives all the possible commands that we can execute this tool. Also if you are not sure about commands still can check the options using dbcli -h. Please find the sample below.

 
  [root@dbsdpl21 ~]# dbcli update-dbhome -h -- check the update-home options
Usage: update-dbhome [options]
  Options:
    --cloneOcid, -o
      clone OCID

Patching Prechecks


OCI vm server patching consist 3 major components.


  1. Server patching (updating the os version)
  2. Grid patching
  3. DB Patching

1. Pre-requisites

Access to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage service,
including connectivity to the applicable Swift endpoint for Object Storage.
Oracle recommend using Service Gateway to enable this access.
  • /u01 FS with at least 15Gb of free space
  • Clusterware should be up and running
  • All DB system nodes running

Backup

Backup your database prior to the patch event.

Non Prod first

Test this patch on non prod (or test) server first

Patching

Before performing patching run pre check commands to validate the environment with these patches.Also make sure to update the cliadm before patching..

I always recommend to patch standby database first before moving to prod.
 

  
  [root@dbsdpl251 ~]#  cliadm update-dbcli

This is really convenient feature , once you execute this it will automatically run in background . Status can be checked from describing the job id. For each job there will be unique job id.

2. Patching

-– rolling fashion

Patching happen in rolling fashion.

We need to follow the correct patching sequence. start with the server patch. 
This server patch includes with grid patching.

2.2 Server patching failures.

While performing the server patch , patched failed due to conflicts . 

In this senario best option is to raise a SR with oracle and get the work plan. There can be change oracle will provide merge patch to address some of the bugs.

Patching Failures on Bare Metal and Virtual Machine DB Systems

Solution

Better option is to create a SR with oracle get for merge patch or the steps to avoid this failure. (rollback conflict patches)
--- Action plan 1. Please rollback conflict patch 32847378 2. and proceed with 19.12 grid patch( note: This patch 32847378 is already included in 19.12) Rdbsm Home: 1.Please rollback conflict patch 29780459 2. proceed with 19.12 patch 3.Then apply below one off patch on top of 19.12 db home INCREASE _LM_RES_HASH_BUCKET AND BACK OUT CHANGES FROM THE BUG 29416368 FIX (Patch) p29780459_1912000DBRU_Linux-x86-64.zip --- Steps 1. Run the pre root script. I1.f this is a GI Home, as the root user execute: # $GI_HOME/crs/install/rootcrs.sh -prepatch >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>This step will shut down CRS and unlock the binaries 2.As the GI home owner execute: $ $GI_HOME/OPatch/opatch apply or rollback 3. Run the post script. If this is a GI Home, as the root user execute: # $GI_HOME/crs/install/rootcrs.sh -postpatch >>>>>>>>>>>>this step will start the crs
