Environment: 11gRAC/DB (11.2.0.3) , Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 Edition
Patch:13965211 - 11.2.0.3 Patch 6 for Windows 64 bit, download patch from metalink.
This patch is RAC rolling upgradable for GRID, and RDBMS homes.
You should administer one Oracle product, one Oracle home at a time, for its particular Bundle Patch Update.
DB 11.2.0.3 Patch 6 includes all bugs fixed in 11.2.0.3 Patch 1 to Patch 5. It must be applied on top of the 11.2.0.3 base release or on top of any earlier bundle patch from 11.2.0.3 Patch 1 to Patch 5.
The order of patching in RAC install is GRID_HOME, then RDBMS_HOME
OPatch Info:
Oracle recommends that you use OPatch utility release 11.2.0.1.9 or later. You can download it from My Oracle Support with patch 6880880.
Patch Installation Instructions
Patching GRID Home
1. Before Patching GRID_HOME, stop OCR related resources, Oracle HASD Services (OHASD) Services and all Oracle Services:
> srvctl stop service -d -s -i
> srvctl stop instance -d DBNAME -i INSTANCE -o abort
> crsctl stop crs
make the backup of the Oracle Home being patached (eg; d:\app...)
- To verify all resources have been oved to the other nodes, run the following command from another node with GRID running:
3. > crsctl status resource -t
- Then use the Computer Management Services GUI or the net stop command to stop ALL Oracle services running on that node:
net stop OracleService
net stop OracleTNSListenerLISTENER_
net stop OracleTNSListenerLISTENER_SCANn
net stop OracleDBConsole
net stop OracleASMService
net stop "Oracle VSS Writer Service"
net stop OracleREMExecService
net stop OracleOHService
net stop "Oracle Object Service"
net stop OracleClusterVolumeService
net stop ocfs (required only for OCFS installation)
net stop orafenceservice
Note: An explicit 'srvctl start listener -n ' should be issued after patching - Set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable properly

Verifying the update...
The local system has been patched. You can restart Oracle instances on it.
9. opatch will attempt to apply the patch on all the nodes in the cluster sequentially. However will prompt for user input to start patching other nodes. At this time ensure that the Oracle services on target node are stopped before proceeding to patch. Once the opatch session completes patching this node, start the services and proceed applying patch to the next node.
10. Once the opatch session completes patching GRID_HOME on a node, run the following before proceeding to patch GRID_HOME on the next node. %ORACLE_HOME%\bin\acfsroot installD:\Sources\11.2.0.3\Patches\p13965211_112030_MSWIN-x86-64\13965211>%ORACLE_HOME%\bin\acfsroot install

You must execute the steps in "Post Installation Steps” for any new database that was created by any of the following methods:
- Using DBCA (Database Configuration Assistant) to select a sample database (General, Data Warehouse, Transaction Processing)
- Using a script that was created by DBCA that creates a database from a sample database
- Cloning a database that was created by either of the two preceding methods, and if "Post Installation Steps” was not executed after Bundle Patch6 was applied
Finally check the status of all the services
>crsctl status resource -t
Once all is well, you can start the same steps mentioned above for the next node.
>>>Wish you all a happy patching.<<<
