Last updated on JUNE 05, 2019
Applies to:
Exadata Database Machine X2-2 Hardware - Version All Versions and laterInformation in this document applies to any platform.
The process being followed is:
1. calling dbnodeupdate - which is kicking off the yum update
2. the yum update process causes the node to reboot
3. reboot not happening due to a bug. This bug could be encountered on any reboot, regardless of whether dbnodeupdate.sh was called.
Symptoms
Running dbnodeupdate.sh is hanging while attempting to upgrade Exadata software on a database node.
The hanging step is likely from the reboot step of the patching process.
It can occur during rebooting / shutting down, an action which may not be affiliated with a patching activity.
The console window returns a stack which often looks like the following:
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
