How to install OJVM PATCH on standby dataguard environment

Baig
Hi Erman,

hope you are doing good!

I was trying to apply cpu patches for october 2019. I was going through the readme of the below patch it says "This patch is not Data Guard Standby First Installable. "

Patch 30128197 - Oracle JavaVM Component 12.1.0.2.191015 Database PSU


I am aware on how to apply cpu on standby environment, but how do i apply OJVM Patch. I was referring the official oracle document but its pretty confusing for me. Can you please advise the basic steps to follow to apply OJVM patch on a standby database.

Thanks for your help in advance.

In general, Patches and patch bundles that update modules that may potentially disrupt the interoperability between primary and physical standby systems running different database home software are "not certified as Data Guard Standby-First Installable ."
Generally, OJVM PSU is neither RAC Rolling nor Standby First installable.
Check the MOS note -> MOS Note:1929745.1: Oracle Recommended Patches — OJVM PSU Patches

It means you can not install it to your standby first..
Basically you will first patch your primary and then standby.

Check the readme for shutting down the databases before patching (check if it says so)

So normally you should stop managed recovery, stop primary and standby.
apply OJVM in primary
apply OJVM in standby
start primary
apply post installation in Primary (sql related works)
start standby
start managed recovery on standby

check this blog post, it seems okay ->
