Maintenance mode is a new feature provided after EBS 11.5.10.
First, you can make a normal system down plan and give an announcement. This is done through Oracle Applications Manager (OAM.
Second, there is a restricted mode access page in maintenance mode,
Finally, you must use the maintenance mode when applying the patch, that is, set the maintenance mode to enable.
Otherwise, adpatch requires Options = hotpatch, which is slow. You can view it in the following ways:
Select fnd_profile.value ('apps _ maintenance_mode ') from dual;
Select v. profile_option_value v_profile
From fnd_profile_option_values v
, Fnd_profile_options_vl P
Where v. profile_option_id = P. profile_option_id
And (V. level_id = 10001)
And P. profile_option_name = 'apps _ maintenance_mode ';
In general, this is more user-friendly and users know what the system is doing!
Step:
1. Schedule the 'System downloadtime' from OAM
OAM: site map --> maintenance --> Manage downtime schedules
At the moment of the downtime, do the following:
2. Shutdown Apache (on normal mode ):
Adapcctl. Sh stop
Or
Adstpall. Sh <cmd_user>/<cmd_pwd>
3. Enable 'Maintenance mode' from adadmin
Adadmin: Options 5, 1
4. Start Apache (on restricted mode)
Adaprstctl. Sh start
5. Apply the patch with adpatch
6. Stop Apache (on restricted mode)
Adaprstctl. Sh stop
7. Disable 'Maintenance mode' from adadmin
Adadmin: Options 5, 2
8. Start Apache (on normal mode ):
Adapcctl. Sh start
Or
Adstrtal. Sh <cmd_user>/<cmd_pwd>
