Patching Oracle WebCenter 5-5
If you choose to stay with Oracle Content Management 10g, you must install the latest UpdateBundle and Folders_g components. You can obtain these from My Oracle
Support formerly OracleMetaLink: https:support.oracle.com
. Oracle Universal Content Management 11g is included as part of Oracle Enterprise
Content Management. See Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Enterprise Content Management Suite for installation instructions.
For instructions on upgrading to Oracle Universal Content Management 11g, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Upgrade Guide for Enterprise Content Management.
If Oracle WebCenter and Oracle Content Server are installed in the same domain, no additional configuration is required for using an external LDAP authentication
provider. Authentication provider configuration is applicable to an entire domain.

Patching your Oracle WebCenter middle tier involves additional steps not required by other Fusion Middleware products.
You must choose one of the following update options:
■
Section 5.4.2, Updating Oracle WebCenter Using WLST Commands
■
Section 5.4.3, Updating Oracle WebCenter Using Node Manager and Automated Script
If you have Oracle WebCenter installed on multiple machines, you can only update your software by using WLST commands
Section 5.4.2, Updating Oracle WebCenter Using WLST Commands
. Make sure that the WebCenter Oracle home directory on each machine is updated.

5.4.2 Updating Oracle WebCenter Using WLST Commands
If you choose not to configure the Node Manager, you can update your middle tier by using WebLogic Scripting Tool WLST commands. Before you do so, first do the
following:
1.
Run the Oracle WebCenter installer to update your Oracle WebCenter software. For more information, see
Section 3.5.2, Download the Installer and
Section 3.5.3, Start the Installer
.
2.
Update your database schemas. For more information, see
Section 3.7, Update Your Schemas with Patch Set Assistant
. After you have patched your Oracle WebCenter software and database schemas, you
must run the WLST commands in this section to complete the middle tier update. You must run these commands from the same machine on which the Administration
Server is running.
Follow the instructions below to complete the upgrade of your Oracle WebCenter domain:
1.
Stop all Managed Servers, including the Administration Server.
2.
Start WLST from the WebCenter Oracle home. On UNIX operating systems:
cd
WebCenter_ORACLE_HOME
commonbin .wlst.sh
On Windows operating systems:
cd
WebCenter_ORACLE_HOME
\common\bin wlst.cmd
3.
Make sure the external LDAP server is up and running, then run the upgradeOpss command in offline mode without connecting to any server:
On UNIX operating systems:
upgradeOpssjpsConfig=’
DOMAIN_HOME
configfmwconfigjps-config.xml’, jaznData=’
MW_HOME
oracle_commonmodulesoracle.jps_11.1.1domain_ configsystem-jazn-data.xml’
On Windows operating systems:
upgradeOpssjpsConfig=’
DOMAIN_HOME
\config\fmwconfig\jps-config.xml’, jaznData=’
MW_HOME
\oracle_common\modules\oracle.jps_11.1.1\domain_ config\system-jazn-data.xml’
4.
Run the upgradeWebCenterDomain command in offline mode:
upgradeWebCenterDomaindomainDirName=
DOMAIN_HOME
, oracleHome=
WebCenter_ ORACLE_HOME
, upgradeCustomSpaces=[1|0]
Note: If you need to re-run the upgradeOpss command, you
must exit the current WLST session and start a new session before re-running upgradeOpss.
Patching Oracle WebCenter 5-7
■
domainDirName - Replace
DOMAIN_HOME
with the full path to your Domain home directory.
■
oracleHome - Replace
WebCenter_ORACLE_HOME
with the full path to your WebCenter Oracle home directory.
■
upgradeCustomSpaces - Set to 1 if you used the custom.webcenter.spaces shared library to customize WebCenter Spaces
and you want to migrate your customizations to the upgraded instance. For information about how to user your extensions in WebCenter Spaces
11.1.1.5.0, refer to:
http:www.oracle.comtechnetworkmiddlewarewebcenterowc s-ps4-wcs-ext-samples-wp-406559.pdf
For example:
upgradeWebCenterDomaindomainDirName=homeOracleDomainswc_domain, oracleHome=homeOracleMiddlewareOracle_WC1, upgradeCustomSpaces=1
5.
Start the Administration Server.
6.
Connect to the Administration Server.
connect
7.
In the domain that is running the WebCenter Spaces Managed Server, run the upgradeWebCenterPermissions command.
upgradeWebCenterPermissions
8.
All of the instructions to this point have been for a single node. If your domain has servers running on more than one machine, you will need to pack and unpack
your domain to replicate the changes to other nodes in your cluster.
To pack and unpack your updated domain:
WARNING: If you upgrade your WebCenter domain with
upgradeCustomSpaces set to 0, none of your previous customizations will be available in the upgraded WebCenter Spaces
instance and there is no facility to migrate WebCenter Spaces customizations after the upgrade process.
Note: You may see error messages when you run the
upgradeWebCenterDomain command. These errors can be safely ignored so long as there is some text indicating that your operation
was completed successfully. For more information about the error messages, refer to Oracle Fusion Middleware Release Notes.
