Latest Releases

The table below contains the list of the most recently released versions and patches for components of Oracle Exadata Database Machine and HP Oracle Database Machine.  When new versions are released, previous versions listed in this table are moved to the Release History section below.

Patch Release Frequency

Updates for the software listed in the Latest Releases tables below are delivered following different release schedules, and are as follows:

Note: Patch release frequency is subject to change without notice.

 

Software	Patch Release Frequency
Quarterly Full Stack Download	Quarterly
Exadata Storage Server (5)	Quarterly to semi-annually (3)
Database Server (5)	Grid Infrastructure / RDBMS Bundle Patches (2) 12.1.0.2 - Monthly 12.1.0.1 - Quarterly (1) - Patching end date 22-Jul-2015 11.2.0.4 - Quarterly - Patching end date 31-Jan-2018 11.2.0.3 - Quarterly - Patching end date 27-Aug-2015 11.2.0.2 - No further bundle patches - Patching end date 31-Oct-2013 11.2.0.1 - No further bundle patches - Patching end date 30-Apr-2012
InfiniBand Switch	Semi-annually to annually

(1) Exadata systems running Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1) apply the standard Grid Infrastructure Patch Set Update (GI PSU) released as part of the quarterly CPU process for planned maintenance.

(2) Recommended Grid Infrastructure and Database patch bundles for Exadata are released quarterly, aligned with and including the database Critical Patch Update (CPU) and Patch Set Update (PSU) releases. The quarterly patch bundles are targeted for planned Grid Infrastructure and Database patching activities and are the only patch bundles that will be applied by most customers.  All patch bundles are cumulative.

For the most recent Oracle Database patch sets, Oracle may make interim patch bundles available on a monthly or bimonthly basis, also. Most customers will install these only if they are recommended by Oracle Support to address a specific issue that is fixed in an interim patch bundle and the customer cannot wait for the next quarterly release containing the fix. Interim patch bundles provide faster response for specific issues and are expected to contain fewer fixes than quaterly releases.

Grid Infrastructure and Database patch bundles for Exadata are produced until the patching end date for a given patch set, as described in Note 742060.1.

(3) For information about the Lifetime Support Policy for Exadata  and Oracle Database software, refer to Oracle Software Technical Support Policies.

Recommended Versions

The recommended version depends on the state of deployment and may not be equal to the latest release specified in the Current Versions table below.  The general guideline is the following:

• Systems that are in production or are in late testing stages before production should plan to periodically adopt more current patch releases. It is not required or necessary to install every new patch release. A patch should be installed on a production system only after it has been validated in a proper test environment, and no less than one month after release to allow field experience to solidify. However, if the system requires a fix that is available in a newer version, then plans to adopt a newer version should be accelerated.
• Systems that are in the early stages of testing before production or proofs-of-concept should adopt new releases and patches as they are made available as indicated in the Current Versions table below.

• Oracle Linux on 8-socket (X4-8, X3-8, X2-8) Database Servers
• Oracle Solaris on 2-socket (X4-2, X3-2, X2-2) Database Servers

Review Note 1262380.1 for database server software and firmware guidelines.

Oracle Linux on 2-socket (X5-2, X4-2, X3-2, X2-2, V2) Database Servers

12.1.2.1.0:

• Database servers move to Oracle Linux 6.6.  Upgrades from previous versions performed in place using dbnodeupdate.sh.
• OracleVM on database servers available for new deployments.

11.2.3.3.0: Systems use UEK2 kernel

• dbnodeupdate.sh is required for database server upgrade. Latest dbnodeupdate.sh in patch 16486998.

11.2.3.2.0: Oracle Linux Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK) default on database servers

• Beginning in 11.2.3.2.0 database servers use Oracle Linux Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK). 
• You may switch to the non-UEK Oracle Linux kernel as a separate post-installation or post-upgrade step.  Refer to the Exadata release README for instructions. 
• To switch back to UEK see Document 1524411.1.

11.2.3.1.0: Database server updates delivered through the Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN)

• Beginning in 11.2.3.1.0 database server updates are delivered through the Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN).  Database server updates are no longer delivered via the minimal pack.
  
  • Updates via ULN require populating and maintaining a yum repository for Exadata.  See Document 1473002.1 for details.
• Database servers must be running Oracle Linux 5.5 before updating with ULN.  To update the kernel package and other key software components on database servers from OL 5.3 to OL 5.5, refer to Document 1284070.1.  Systems originally deployed with 11.2.1.2.6 or earlier will run OL 5.3 unless the steps in Document 1284070.1 have been performed.  Minimal pack installation during upgrade does not update OL 5.3 kernel package.

11.2.2.2.2: Minimal pack installation will update the database server Oracle Linux kernel package

• For Exadata releases 11.2.2.2.2 through 11.2.2.4.2, minimal pack installation will update the database server Oracle Linux kernel package to the current release for systems that are already running the 2.6.18-194 (OL 5.5) or later kernel.  
• Systems that were initially deployed with Exadata 11.2.1.2.6 or earlier and run the 2.6.18-128 kernel (OL 5.3) will not have their kernel package updated during minimal pack installation. 
• To update the kernel package and other key software components on database servers from OL 5.3 to OL 5.5, refer to Document 1284070.1.

Oracle Solaris on 2-socket (X4-2, X3-2, X2-2) Database Servers

General guidelines for running Oracle Solaris on Exadata Database Machine

• 12.1.1.1.1 is the terminal version that supports Oracle Solaris.
• Oracle Solaris is supported only on 2-socket database servers (e.g. X3-2).  8-socket database servers (e.g. X3-8) must use Oracle Linux.
• Database servers may be updated to a later SRU than what was originally installed.
• Oracle Solaris package version number is obtained with command "pkg list entire".

Oracle Solaris 11.1

• Instructions to upgrade from Solaris 11 to Solaris 11.1 on Exadata Database Servers - Document 1534482.1
• Oracle Solaris 11.1 Resource Center - Document 1501144.1

Oracle Solaris 11

• Instructions to upgrade from Solaris 11 Express to Solaris 11 on Exadata Database Servers - Document 1431284.1
• Solaris 11 supports only Oracle Database 11.2.0.3 and later, hence earlier version grid infrastructure and database installations must be upgraded to 11.2.0.3 before performing the Solaris upgrade.  Perform upgrades in the following order:
  1. Upgrade Exadata Storage Servers to 11.2.3.1.0 or later (during the upgrade path to Solaris 11, it is acceptable to run Exadata 11.2.3.1.0 or later with Solaris 11 Express)
  2. Upgrade Grid Infrastructure and Database to 11.2.0.3.
  3. Upgrade Solaris 11 Express 2010.11 to Solaris 11 2011.11.
• Oracle Solaris 11 Resource Center - Document 1313405.1

Oracle Solaris 11 Express

• As of 06-September-2012, Oracle Solaris 11 Express is no longer supported for use on Exadata.  Systems running Oracle Solaris 11 Express must be upgraded to Oracle Solaris 11.
• List of available Oracle Solaris 11 Express 2010.11 Support Repository Updates (SRUs) - Document 1275533.1.

InfiniBand HCA

The following table lists InfiniBand HCA models and the supported firmware versions.

InfiniBand HCA firmware is automatically maintained on Exadata storage and database servers when performing software maintenance. The information provided in the table below is for reference purposes only. It can be used to plan firmware updates for non-Exadata servers connected to the Exadata InfiniBand network, such as backup media servers.

Exadata Storage Servers and database servers will interoperate with different InfiniBand host channel adapter (HCA) firmware versions, however, Oracle recommends that all versions be the same unless performing a rolling upgrade. Review Note 1262380.1 for database server software and firmware guidelines. 

The HCA model installed is identified by obtaining the Parameter-Set Identifier (PSID). The PSID is obtained with the command "/usr/bin/ibv_devinfo | grep board_id".  InfiniBand HCA firmware version is obtained with the command "/usr/bin/ibv_devinfo | grep fw_ver".  Firmware updates must match the PSID of the installed HCA.

Oracle Database and Grid Infrastructure

The information in this section applies to more than one Oracle software release.

Oracle JavaVM Patch Set Update (OJVM PSU)

• In CPUOct2014 and later, OJVM PSU is a new Patch Set Update for Database versions 11.2.0.3, 11.2.0.4, 12.1.0.1 and 12.1.0.2.  It addresses OJVM security vulnerabilities.  Refer to Document 1929745.1 for OJVM PSU details.
• For RAC deployments, OJVM PSU patch cannot be installed in a RAC Rolling manner and requires database downtime to install.  OJVM PSU patch is installed separately from the standard PSU patch (e.g. 12.1.0.2 Database Patch for Engineered System, or 12.1.0.1 GI PSU, or 11.2 Exadata BP), which continues to be RAC rolling installable.
• Do not apply Combo OJVM patches to Exadata systems.  Instead use the individual OJVM PSU patch, or the OJVM PSU patch supplied with QFSDP.

Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.2) Patch Set 1

Follow the step-by-step instructions in Document 1681467.1 to upgrade Grid Infrastructure and Database from 12.1.0.1 or 11.2 to 12.1.0.2.

For Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.2) Patch Set 1 apply the  Database Patch for Engineered Systems and Database In-Memory bundle patch to Exadata systems.  This patch also includes all CPU security fixes, and the GI and Database PSU bug fixes.

Before upgrading, see the Requirements for Exadata Feature Usage section in this document for software requirements that may necessitate pre-upgrade patch application to other software in order to support specific Exadata features or patch application methods.
