Oracle Out of Place Patching, Delphix Virtual Pluggable Databases and Delphix Repository Templates (KBA9389)
KBA
KBA# 9389
Issue
Oracle out of place patching requires installation of a new Oracle Home and patching this Oracle Home to the required level. Each Oracle database that is to be patched to that same level and make use of this new Oracle Home and patched binaries will need to modified to make use of the new home. These same Oracle database that are to run from this new home will also need to have SQL patches applied to their databases internals to ensure they align with the patched binaries from which the databases will be running.
Delphix Continuous Data Engines also track this same Oracle Home information. Just like Oracle tracks these details through its inventory, Delphix also stores information about each Oracle home and maps each Oracle dataset, whether it be a dSource, VDB, VPDB, CDB, RAC, or single instance to an Oracle home. The Delphix term for the Oracle Home is repository.
When provisioning, refreshing, or rewinding VCDB/PDB pairs Delphix establishes what is termed an auxiliary instance and database to recover a VPDB to the desired point in time. From here the recovered VPDB is unplugged and plugged into its end destination CDB, whether this is a VCDB created by Delphix or a CDB supplied by a DBA. To control the database parameters used by this auxiliary instance Delphix utilizes a VDB template where the parameters are set. This VDB template is then linked with a repository, a dataset, and assigned to a repository template through the creation of the repository template.
To control the auxiliary instance parameters during provision or refresh, the VDB template sets the parameters required. The target Oracle Home the auxiliary database and VPDB is to run from, the source database the provision will be made from and VDB template are all grouped into what is collectively known as the repository template.
To control the auxiliary instance parameters during a VPDB rewind, the VDB template sets the parameters required. The target Oracle Home the auxiliary database and VPDB is to run from, the source database the provision will be made from and VDB template are all grouped into what is collectively known as the repository template.
This knowledge base article looks at the implications of performing out of place patching of Oracle container databases where that patching impacts dSources, VPDBs, VCDBs and DBA supplied container databases used to house VPDBs. It attempts to show the entire workflow for patching source and target databases and to align the existing dSources and VPDBs with new repository templates post patching of Oracle.
Prerequisites
Out of place patching of Oracle is occurring in the source pluggable databases and their associated virtual pluggable databases.
VDB templates and repository templates are being used in the environment for controlling VPDB operations like provision, refresh, and rewind.

Performing out of place patching and re-applying repository templates
To ensure Delphix provisioning, refresh, and rewind operations of VPDBs are performed utilizing repository templates after the patching has occurred new repository templates must be configured. These new repository templates will utilize the existing VDB template and link this to the new Oracle Home created through out of place patching.
What follows here is one process for performing dSource patching, VPDB patching, and aligning Delphix VPDBs with a suitable repository template that takes into account a new Oracle Home.

VDB Template configuration
This template will used within the repository template configuration and will control the memory structures associated with auxiliary CDB that Delphix creates during VPDB provisioning.

Repository Template configuration
The repository template links the VDB template (VPDB_repo_template_1500MSGA) with the target Oracle Home (repository) into which the VPDB will be provisioned. It also links the source PDB (PDB19C1) to the repository template. The repository template is linking the provision source database and snapshot to the target Oracle Home of the CDB the VPDB is to be provisioned into and the VDB template controls the size of the auxiliary instances SGA that is started as a part of the provisioning process. This repository template will also be used during refresh operations.

The VPDB details
A VDB has been provisioned from the dSource and version/patch level to a DBA supplied container database running the same patch level as the source database.

Migrate the dSource in Delphix
An environment refresh will need to be performed to pick up the new Oracle Home in the target environment. In this example it is assumed this has been performed and Delphix is aware of the new patched Oracle Home that the dSource is now using.
The repositories for CDB19C2, PDB19C21 (linked as a source) and PDB19C22 (not currently linked as a source) need to be updated to from OEL7SITDE1/'/u01/app/oracle/19.11.1/dbhome_1' to OEL7SITDE1/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' (which has been updated to 19.15.0.0).

Each PDB in the dSource container should be updated on the Delphix side, whether it is currently linked as a dSource or not, as it exists within Delphix as a discovered configuration despite not being used.
PDB19C22 (not currently linked.

The container database, CDB19C2, repository also needs to be aligned with the new Oracle Home that is running 19.15.0.0.

After the repository updates the source CDB and each of its PDB should now reflect the patched Oracle Home.

Upgrade the VPDB target Container Database and the VPDB it holds
The virtual pluggable database, VPDBRU1, and the container database, RCDB2, as they exist prior to patching show the following details.

Prior to relocating the VPDB target container database, RCDB2, it will need to be shutdown. Oracles GRID Infrastructure command srvctl is used to perform this, sqlplus can also be used.
[oracle@oel7sitde2 ~]$ srvctl stop database -d rcdb2 -o immediate
The Oracle Homes in play in the container database hosting RCDB2 are the following:

The User supplied container database is to be migrated from home /u01/app/oracle/19.11.1/dbhome_1 to /u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1 (which has been patched to 19.15.0.0.)

At this point, the target user provided container database and its virtual pluggable databases have been patched. Delphix must now be adjusted to reflect the new Oracle Home these databases now use.
Migrate the Container Database and any Virtual Pluggable databases to their new repository/Oracle Home
In the scenario shown below the Delphix changes are implemented through the Delphix command line. The update for the datasets can also be performed through the Delphix GUI.
Update the VPDB to use its new and patched Oracle Home.
dlpx6014 sourceconfig> select vdbru1 dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'vdbru1'> update dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'vdbru1' update *> set repository=OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'vdbru1' update *> commit
Update the CDB that holds the VPDB with its repository/Oracle Home.
dlpx6014 sourceconfig> select rcdb2 dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'rcdb2'> update dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'rcdb2' update *> set repository=OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' dlpx6014 sourceconfig 'rcdb2' update *> commit
The source configuration for each database will now show the patched home on the Delphix side.
dlpx6014 sourceconfig> ls NAME REPOSITORY LINKINGENABLED .. rcdb2 OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' true vdbru1 OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' true ..
Establish the new Repository Templates to be used during Delphix provision, refresh, and rewind operations
Repository templates cannot be updated from the perspective of the repository after the patching of Oracle to use a new Oracle Home, the process to alter them would be to create a new one and delete the old ones when they are no longer in use.
The provision/refresh repository template.
dlpx6014 repository template> create dlpx6014 repository template create *> ls Properties type: SourceRepositoryTemplate name: (required) container: (required) repository: (required) template: (required) dlpx6014 repository template create *> set name=vdbru1_repo_template_1500MSGA dlpx6014 repository template create *> set container=PDB19C21 dlpx6014 repository template create *> set template=VCDB_Template_1500MSGA dlpx6014 repository template create *> set repository=OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' dlpx6014 repository template create *> commit
The rewind template.
dlpx6014 repository template create *> set name=vdbru1_rewind_repo_template_1500MSGA dlpx6014 repository template create *> set repository=OEL7SITDE2/'/u01/app/oracle/19.0.0/dbhome_1' dlpx6014 repository template create *> set container=vdbru1 dlpx6014 repository template create *> set template=VCDB_Template_1500MSGA dlpx6014 repository template create *> commit
