Symptoms

On: 12.2.3 version, Patch Application Issues

Adop phase (prepare or fs_clone) fails on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) environment. The Oracle EBS on-premise environment was migrated to the OCI environment a few months back, and no patches had been applied after the migration. When attempting this first patching cycle, the issue appeared.

Log files show the following errors:
