12.1.3, perform the following post-update steps to update all database
tier nodes with the code level, provided by Oracle E-Business Suite
Release 12.1.3:
Application tier:As the APPLMGR user
o Source the environment fileo . ./<APPL_TOP>/APPS<CONTEXT_NAME>.env
o Run AutoConfig on the APPL_TOP
o Run the admkappsutil.pl utility to create the file appsutil.zip
in the <INST_TOP>/admin/out directory
o perl <AD_TOP>/bin/admkappsutil.pl
Database tier:As the ORACLE user
o

cd <RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>

. ./<RDBMS ORACLE_HOME>/<CONTEXT_NAME>.env

Copy or FTP the appsutil.zip file to the <RDBMS

ORACLE_HOME>.

Uncompress appsutil.zip under the <RDBMS

ORACLE_HOME>.

cd $ORACLE_HOME

unzip -o appsutil.zip

Re-run adpreclone.pl on the database tier and the application tier.

updates to the clone directory structures that were used during cloning

perl adpreclone.pl appsTier
