Upgrade REPOS to 11.2.0.3.3 from 11.1.0.7.0 on GRIDCTRL

Overview

This is a rough procedure I used to upgrade the REPOS database on GRIDCTRL from 11.1.0.7 to 11.2.0.3.3 prior to upgrading to EM12C R2.

I am following the advice from Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 2 Installation on Oracle Linux 5.8 and 6.3 by Tim Hall, in which he says that the OMR should be at least 11.2.0.2.0.

Build Diary

Originally, this was supposed to be a straight forward upgrade, but I was diverted into installing Grid Infrastructure, and then the patch set for 11.2.0.3.4 came out. So, I put the original procedures into their own pages at the following links:

  1. Install Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3.0 without Grid Infrastructure
  2. Apply Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3.3 Patchset (Incomplete)
  3. Install Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.3.3
  4. Deinstall Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3.0
  5. Install Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.1.0 with Grid Infrastructure
  6. Deinstall Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.1.0
    1. Apply Grid Infrastructure 11.2.0.3.4 Patchset
  7. Install Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3.0 with Grid Infrastructure
  8. Apply Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3.4 Patchset
