Just learned about this, Era patching is pretty impressive!

Wendell 11 months ago

D is misleading, rollback only happens if it fails during the process.

Earleen 11 months ago

C sounds too good to be true, is that really how it works?

Tu 11 months ago

I agree, B is a game changer for automation.

Stanton 11 months ago

A is definitely true, no need for OpatchAuto!

Wilburn 11 months ago

I think B and C might be the right answers. We had a similar question in practice about automation and rollback features, but I’m a bit confused about the details.

Heike 12 months ago

I feel like we discussed how Era doesn't need OpatchAuto, so maybe A is correct? But I need to double-check that.

Ranee 12 months ago

I remember something about rollback features, but I can't recall if it's automatic or manual. Was it option C or D that mentioned automatic rollback?

Paola 1 year ago

I think option B sounds familiar because we practiced automating tasks with REST API, but I'm not entirely sure about the specifics of Era patching.

Nell 1 year ago

The fleet patching and REST API/CLI automation features sound really useful for efficiently managing Oracle server updates across multiple systems. I'll make sure to highlight those in my answer.

Shawna 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about the differences between Era patching and the native Oracle Utility OpatchAuto. I'll need to review the details on that part.

Wilda 1 year ago

I'm pretty confident about this one. The key features of Era Oracle patching seem to be the ability to automate the patching process and the automatic rollback capability if anything goes wrong.

Rolande 1 year ago

Automatic rollback is a great safety net if the patching process encounters any issues. I'll definitely include that in my response.

Nikita 1 year ago

Okay, this seems like a tricky one. I'm leaning towards option A, but I want to double-check the documentation to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Marshall 2 years ago

Agreed, D makes sense too. But does C have auto rollback?

Annamae 2 years ago

What about D? Rolling back if issues arise is crucial.

Beatriz 2 years ago

I think B is right too. Automated scheduling would be a big help.

Elza 2 years ago

I'm leaning towards B and C. Automated patching sounds useful.

Annamae 2 years ago

Yes! It's kind of tricky. Which two statements though?
