[Amar Jadhav]

System is in file systeml synchronization is full. system is not in any patch cycle.
Now i want to apply patch using adop .
can i go for fs_clone fist then prepare to start patch cycle.

I am bit confuse about fs_clone phase .

[ErmanArslansOracleBlog]

start with prepare phase, then continue apply.. and continue with the other phases of online patching cycle.
Why are you thinkg about running fs_clone ?
