One of our reader asked us, what we should take care before applying the bundle patch on Exadata, so thought to write this article where we have mentioned some points based on our patching experience, we can say it's part of bundle patch pre-preparation.
Missing of single point can lead you to difficult stage which we can eliminate by planing better.
"Always plan for worst to do the best"
- Make sure that you have backup plan for Exadata box connectivity in case you are doing things remotely
- Install VNC client on your workstation
- Install VNC server on Exadata in case if you required GUI. You can also use Xmanager and Xming to take GUI from your workstation
