OPatch is a utility that enables us to patch update of an oracle database ( single and RAC instances). And you can download the latest OPatch utility from My Oracle Support (MOS).
Some of the advantages of OPatch includes, but not limited to:
- Apply an online patch without shutting down the Oracle instance that you are patching.
- Enables us to check if the patch is a rolling patch or not.
- It enables us to apply individual patches on the database.
