What is being announced?

This note gives a brief overview of the Enterprise Manager Base Platform 13.4.0.8 Release Update (RU8).

This RU 13.4.0.8 patches both the OMS and the OMS-side plug-ins.

This RU8 should be installed on top of Enterprise Manager Base Platform

Action

Installation

For installation details, follow the README details for the desired Release Update.

Prerequisites:

Important Opatch information for RU8

1) The EM 13.4 OMS Opatch must be upgraded to 13.9.4.2.5 before applying RU8.
No older version of Opatch (13.9.4.2.2 or 13.9.4.2.4) can be used for patching the EM 13.4 OMS with RU8.

2) It is mandatory to apply the OMS RU8 immediately after upgrade to Opatch 13.9.4.2.5.
If RU8 application is not planned, do not upgrade Opatch to 13.9.4.2.5 as this new Opatch will break EM functionality without the corrections included in RU8.

3) If the OMS Opatch was upgraded to 13.9.4.2.4 earlier and the workaround of copying the jar files has been performed, then the OMS Opatch can be upgraded to 13.9.4.2.5 with immediate subsequent application of RU8.

4) Opatch 13.9.4.2.5 is intended only for the OMS Opatch located in the OMS (Middleware) Oracle Home.
Do not upgrade the Opatch on the EM 13.4 agents.
RU8 patches on agents will work with the default Opatch version, 13.9.4.2.2.

5) Users will not be able to stage Opatch 13.9.4.2.5 in Software library.
This is intended behavior.

6) Opatch 13.9.4.2.5 is released in Patch 28186730, unlike older versions.

7) Users can apply the Weblogic PSU patches (July 2020 or October 2020) on the OMS after upgrading the OMS Opatch to 13.9.4.2.5.

Note:
If you are not sure about the OPatch and the OMSPatcher version you have, you should download the latest versions.
To download, follow the instructions outlined in the My Oracle Support <Note 2728285.1> and <Note 2646080.1> respectively.

Known Issues

There are no known issues at the time of release for this RU.

Note that starting with EM 13.4 Release Update 3, OMS Platform and OMS Plugin patches are combined into a single patch).
