Upgrade Best Practices Continued.. Adpatch options and other reporting tools
Use applicable adpatch options to reduce downtime and track key upgrade aspects using in-built tools Use non-interactive patching Use adpatch options such as nomaintainmrc, phtofile, nocompiledb, nolink, nogenform, nogenrep, nocompile jsp, noautoconfig, novalidate (1078973.1) Use optimal values for batch size and #workers Use OAM reports and Patch Wizard functionality to track patch timing, files applied, functionality patched, impacted customized files etc. (976188.1, 976688.1)

Upgrade Best Practices Continued.. Performance testing, monitoring and additional optimizations...
Analyze long runners via timing report, ad_task_timing analysis Mine ad_task_timing to identify low worker utilization due to phasing waits and review responsible culprits Review targeted AWR Instance and SQL reports awrrpt.sql and awrsqrpt.sql Use My Oracle Support to check for known issues and workarounds for the longest running jobs
28
Upgrade Best Practices Continued.. Performance testing, monitoring and additional optimizations continued...
Outside-the-box optimizations Requires Support Approval* Long running index creation and Statistics gathering As these tasks run with little or no concurrent tasks, consider using alter system commands to increase parallel_max_servers and pga_aggregate_target (Need to test so as to not exhaust machine resources) Large indexes: Pre-create, but do not alter column definitions For stats (adsstats.sql ; phase: last+63) : On RAC, consider using all nodes when gathering stats or use exp/imp of stats

Upgrade Best Practices Continued.. Performance testing, monitoring and additional optimizations continued...
Outside-the-box optimizations Requires Support Approval*
Long running mv related xdfs (en phases) Cleanup and truncate large MV logs (requires MV complete refresh) Look more closely at long running jobs that you suspect may not be required for your system Thousands of jobs and customer product/data/setup configurations Some of the heavy lifting work may not be required for a specific site Check with Oracle Support to validate A fix maybe available or possible to optimize for your case New 12.1.3 AD timing report by module
