12.0.x和12.1.x差别还是比较大,要想升级到12.1.x,必须先升级到RUP4以上,升级动作可分为下面几个大部分:
1.数据库升级:数据库要求是10.2.0.3以上,可升级到11.2.0.1,11.2.0.2和ERP整合是2010年年底的事情,具体使用那个版本,由实际情况来决定。
2.Java升级到Java6的最新版本,当然了最好是Oracle ERP推荐的版本
3.10G AS升级到最新版本,这部分就是10.1.3目录的内容。
4.10G Form/Report AS升级到最新版本,这部分是10.1.2目录的内容。
5.12.1.1 Maintenance Pack补丁
6.12.1.x RUP补丁
每个大部分又包含了许多小步骤,当然了一切顺利的升级也很快,如果碰到问题那就要研究研究了。
附,11gr2对ERP的认证情况:
We certified the 11gR2 11.2.0.1 Database with E-Business Suite 11i and EBS 12 late in 2009. It's taken a little longer than we had hoped to certify 11.2.0.2, the first patchset for the 11gR2 Database. The reasons: the release cycle for 11.2.0.2 overlapped with our EBS 12.1.3 release cycle, and some of the ports for this patchset weren't released until just before Halloween. Our Server Technologies team is as-yet working on other ports, too.
I know that some of you have been eager to apply this latest patchset to your E-Business Suite databases, so I'm very pleased to announce that Oracle Database 11gR2 Patchset 1 Version 11.2.0.2 is now certified with the E-Business Suite.
