- The Jan 2018 QFSDP requires that components be at the versions included in Apr 2016 QFSDP <patch 22738454> or later QFSDP prior to applying.
- Before applying the JAN 2018 QFSDP to SuperCluster systems that are using the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant to deploy and manage IO Domains and have not applied the July 2017 or October 2017 QFSDP, it is critical that the following MOS document be reviewed first:
  Updating to the SuperCluster Virtual Assistant version 2.5.0.1378 via the JAN 2018 QFSDP <Document 2356377.1>
Oracle Database Quarterly Full Stack Download Patch for SuperCluster Jan 2018 Known Issues <Document 2348803.1>
The preferred level for all Oracle SuperCluster T4-4, T5-8, M6-32,and M7 systems is the QFSDP JAN 2018 however, the minimum QFSDP level for all Oracle SuperCluster T4-4, T5-8, M6-32 and M7 systems is QFSDP JAN 2017.
- This is the minimum version to get Operating system fixes backported and included in the supercluster-solaris custom incorporation.
- If your Oracle SuperCluster T4-4, T5-8, M6-32, or M7 is below this level contact support for guidance on getting your system up to date.
The QFSDPs contain the Solaris 11 IDRs within a SuperCluster Custom Incorporation.
- If you want to see the contents you can do a pkg info or pkg contents command on supercluster-solaris.
- Please check <Document 2086278.1> for post release updates to the recommended Custom Incorporations, IDRs, and CVEs and apply these.

Important information

Please read the README files and the SuperCluster critical issues notes carefully. Please read them long before your patching window so you can make informed plans.
Note that Quarterly Full Stack Download Patches (QFSDPs) are provided as close to the standard Oracle CPU dates (Jan, Apr, July, Oct) as possible*.
- QFSDPs contain the recommended updates (if any) for SuperCluster component products, including system firmware, Solaris Operating System, Solaris Cluster, ZFS Storage Appliance, Exadata Storage Cells, Database, Infiniband Switches, the SuperCluster specific "exafamily" utilities, and user documentation.
- QFSDPs are intensely tested by Oracle and should be applied as a unit, in line with the Engineered Together, Tested Together philosophy of Engineered Systems.
- You should only ever need to apply the latest recommended QFSDP. The detailed component product tables below provide additional details regarding what works with what, but it should not be necessary to apply updates to individual components outside of the QFSDP unless advised to do so by Oracle Support to address a specific issue encountered.
- The exception to this is that additional or updated Solaris 11 Custom Incorporations including IDRs (Interim Diagnostics and Relief) released after the QFSDP was built to address critical issues may be recommended in <Document 2086278.1>.
- Read the nested READMEs in the QFSDP and the referenced Known Issues and SuperCluster Critical Issues docs thoroughly before applying and follow the instructions to the letter.
  
  *Issues found during testing may delay release.
Please Note that the 11.2.0.3.28 Exadata Bundle patch and the 12.1.0.1.8 GI PSU are the FINAL patch sets for these items , it is strongly recommended to get to 11.2.0.4 or 12.1.0.2.
Please Note that there is always an initial install build version for any Oracle SuperCluster and that may not map to a specific QFSDP level .
The 11.2.0.3 Grid Infrastructure portion of the BP still requires <Patch 20303485> 11.2.0.3.9 GI merge. However you should strongly consider upgrade to 11.2.0.4 or 12.1.0.2 and their latest bundle patches/PSUs as part of your patching exercise if your application permit.
Our recommendation is to upgrade to the latest EM framework with the latest plugins.

Oracle SuperCluster Update Policy

Overview

There are two types of maintenance – Proactive Maintenance to prevent issues, and Reactive Maintenance to address issues encountered.

Maintenance Updates will be provided quarterly for the proactive maintenance of SuperCluster. (1)

Reactive Maintenance should be undertaken in consultation with Oracle support who will advise if an update should be applied to a component.

Proactive Maintenance

For Proactive Maintenance, a Maintenance Update will be provided quarterly, comprising an update procedure checklist and the recommended versions of components to which to update.

The Maintenance Update should be applied as a unit.

Such proactive maintenance is important to help prevent issues arising in production, improve performance, etc.

Since the cost of planned downtime is typically far less than the cost of unplanned downtime, scheduled proactive maintenance windows should be part of SLAs with business units utilizing the servers.

Proactive Updates between Quarterly Maintenance Updates

Customers can apply additional Solaris packages to the General Purpose ( Application) domains and zones as needed to support applications. The packages should be at the same level of release as the GP domain that they are being applied to.

Customers can also apply later Solaris 10 patches and Solaris 11 SuperCluster Recommended Custom Incorporations, which may include Security IDRs <Document 2086278.1>.

Other components should not be updated outside of the quarterly Maintenance Updates without consulting Oracle Support.

Reactive Maintenance

Reactive maintenance should only be done when specifically requested by the Oracle support staff. Reactive maintenance may involve updating one or more components.

If a system has not been proactively maintained and is significantly out of date, or if Oracle support have grounds to believe the issue has been addressed in an available quarterly Maintenance Update, the customer may be advised to apply a quarterly Maintenance Update to the system.

A service request must be opened to receive a Solaris IDR (Interim Diagnostic Relief) that is not provided with the QFSDP or included in the following DOC as recommended between QFSDP cycles. Any IDR will need to be delivered as part of an updated SuperCluster Custom Incorporation, the latest of which can be found in <Document 2086278.1> SuperCluster Recommended SuperCluster Custom Incorporations, IDRs, and CVEs Addressed.

Table of Reactive Update Allowances

The following list the items that may or may not be upgraded out of band with the QFSDP. If the target fix is in a version that is included in a released QFSDP that is newer than the customer level the recommendation should always be the newer QFSDP. Understanding the scheduling time for that there may be times when certain components may have to be done immediately to resolve critical issues. The recommended level should not go beyond what is contained in the latest released QFSDP unless expressly approved by a quorum of members of the ssc_maintenance_grp@oracle.com distribution list.

Component	Reactive Update	Approval Level	Contact Information
Firmware on any SuperCluster component	Yes if approved by development to address a specific defect	Recommendation from development in a defect along with SuperCluster Maintenance team approval.	ssc_maintenance_grp@oracle.com
Exadata Storage Cell Version	Yes if approved by development to address a specific defect.	Recommendation from development in a defect. If it has a compute node dependency or IB dependency then it should be approached via a QFSDP. If this is not possible all aspects of the requirement need to be evaluated by the SuperCluster Maintenance team.	ssc_maintenance_grp@oracle.com
Infiniband Switch Software	Not unless explicitly approved by the SuperCluster Maintenance team.	Recommendation from development in a defect along with SuperCluster Engineering approval.	ssc_maintenance_grp@oracle.com the team will then contact SuperCluster engineering for a decision.

GI/DB one off patches	Yes to address a specific defect³	Recommendation from development in a defect	NA
Branded Zone OS patches	Yes at any time to suit application needs	NA	NA

²You can go to the latest Exadata bundle patch even if newer than the QFSDP to fix a targeted defect. This is only if it does not have a newer storage cell or infiniband or OS patch dependency.

²You can go to the latest Database Patch for Engineered Systems and Database In-Memory bundle patch even if newer than the QFSDP to fix a targeted defect. This is only if it does not have a newer storage cell or infiniband or OS patch dependency.

³You can apply specific one off or merge patches to the GI and/or DB homes as needed to address targeted defects

^{4You can apply the latest SuperCluster Custom Incorporation (including latest recommended IDRs to fix specific targeted defects) if it is updated out of band with the QFSDP. See SuperCluster Recommended Custom Incorporations, IDRs and CVEs Addressed (Doc ID 2086278.1) for more details.}

Latest Releases

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

Patch Release Frequency

(1) Recommended bundle patches, named Quarterly Full Stack Download Patch (QFSDP), will be released quarterly, aligned with and including the database Critical Patch Update (CPU) and Patch Set Update (PSU) releases.

Oracle will also continue to make important fixes available in monthly or bimonthly interim bundle patches. Most customers will only install these if they are recommended by Oracle Support to address a specific issue that is fixed in an interim bundle patch and the customer cannot wait for the next QFSDP containing the fix. Interim bundle patches provide faster response for specific issues and are expected to contain fewer fixes than QFSDPs.

All bundle patches are cumulative, as in previous releases.

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

Software	Patch Release Frequency
Quarterly Full Stack Download	Quarterly Applying only part of a maintenance update will result in the system being in an untested state
Exadata Storage Server	Quarterly to semi-annually (3)
Database Server	Grid Infrastructure / RDBMS Bundle Patches (2) 12.2.0.1 - Quarterly 12.1.0.2 - Quarterly - Patching end date Jul-2021 12.1.0.1 - No further PSUs (1) - Patching end date 31-Aug-2016 11.2.0.4 - Quarterly - Patching end date Dec-2020 11.2.0.3 - No further bundle patches - 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) Systems running Oracle Database 12c Release 1 (12.1.0.1) are strongly advised to upgrade to 12.1.0.2

(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.

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 if available. 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.

The original cell image version supplied in patch 17636228 was 11.2.3.3.1.140529.1. The new cell image version supplied in patch 19166601 is 11.2.3.3.1.140708. Please review the following guidelines: 1. The revised 11.2.3.3.1 Exadata Storage Server software release (patch 19166601) contains only changes to cell software. It is installed in the same manner as previous Exadata releases using the patchmgr utility. There are no changes to database server or InfiniBand switch software. 2. Exadata Storage Servers currently running 11.2.3.3.0 or earlier that will be upgraded to 11.2.3.3.1 should ensure patch 19166601 is used for storage server upgrade, not patch 17636228. 3. Exadata Storage Servers already running image version 11.2.3.3.1.140529.1 should upgrade to image version 11.2.3.3.1.140708 using patch 19166601 at the earliest opportunity. Image version is obtained by running the "imageinfo -ver" command. Minimum version required for use with Oracle Database 12.1.0.2. An alternative is to install interim cell patch 18980463, however the impact to the environment will be similar to using patchmgr to install the re-released 11.2.3.3.1. Using patchmgr to install re-released 11.2.3.3.1 will have much lower administrative cost and risk compared to applying interim patch 18980463. Cell image bug 19229527
