Oracle Database Upgrade Guide and How to Upgrade Oracle Database
Manual Upgrade Method – Oracle 12c
I will explain Manual Upgrade from 11.2.0.4 to 12.2.0.1 in this article. If you want to learn Upgrade using DBUA ( Database Upgrade Assistant ), You can read following article.
Oracle 12c Manual upgrade steps
Manual upgrade steps should be as follows.
- Take Full backup
- Gather dictionary stats
- Purge Recycle bin
- Run Preupgrade
- Shutdown 11g Database and Open 12c instance in upgrade mode
- Upgrade database
- Run Post Upgrade steps
- Compile Invalid Objects.
- Check Oracle 12c instances and database
Steps -1 : Take a Full backup via RMAN Tool. If you don’t know RMAN Backup, read following article.
Steps -2: Gather dictionary stats like following.
SQL> EXEC DBMS_STATS.GATHER_DICTIONARY_STATS; PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
Steps -3: Purge recycle bin.
SQL> PURGE DBA_RECYCLEBIN ; DBA Recyclebin purged.
Preupgrade Oracle 12c
Steps -4: Run Preupgrade tool as follows.
/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_4/jdk/bin/java -jar /oracle/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/db_1/rdbms/admin/preupgrade.jar FILE DIR /oracle oracle@MehmetSalih ~DEVECI(/home/oracle)$ /oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_4/jdk/bin/java -jar /oracle/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/db_1/rdbms/admin/preupgrade.jar FILE DIR /oracle Preupgrade generated files: /oracle/preupgrade.log /oracle/preupgrade_fixups.sql /oracle/postupgrade_fixups.sql oracle@MehmetSalih ~DEVECI(/home/oracle)$
After execution of preupgrade.jar, you should run following sql to complete preupgrade task.

Upgrade Oracle 12c from 11g
Step -6: Upgrade database
Run catctl.pl and catupgrd.sql with nohup to upgrade Oracle database from 11.2.0.4 to 12.2.0.1 as follows.
nohup $ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin/perl $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catctl.pl -d $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin -l /home/oracle/ -n 8 catupgrd.sql &

Post Upgrade Oracle 12c
Step -7: Run Post Upgrade steps.
Run following SQL to complete post upgrade step.
- postupgrade_fixups.sql: Script Results of preupgrade tool.
- utlu122s.sql: it displays the version and elapsed upgrade time for each component in DBA_REGISTRY.
- catuppst.sql: it applies Instance patch set update ( PSU ) to the database.

Step -8: Compile Invalid Objects using utlrp.sql.
SQL> @utlrp.sql
Step -9: Check Oracle 12c instances and database.
Check all components’ status and their version using dba_registry view.
You can now use new Oracle 12.2.0.1 database after upgrade.
