hi Harin,
You are in a good way :) answering your questions yourself..
Thanks for sharing your researches as well..
So your inputs are true. patch edition is created when you run adop prepare phase.
However, the service name named ebs_patch should already be there in the listener.
So anytime(even when there is no online patching cycle), when you check it with lsnrctl status command, you should see the ebs_patch service name there.
so, ebs_patch service name should always be there, but the trigger should allow or disallow you to connect to the ebs_patch edition according to the existence of the database patch edition. (in other words; existence of the online patching cycle)
Check the things explained above, and update pls.
