kill -9 `ps -ef|grep app45 | awk '{print $2}'`

Apply Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.6 Release Update Pack Patch 21900901 on the run edition application environment, using downtime mode.

sh $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME/adstrtal.sh

6. Perform adop cleanup action.

adop phase=cleanup

7. Synchronize file systems

Synchronize the file systems using the command shown below. This action will copy the new run edition code and configuration to the other file system, to ensure that both file systems are in sync before applying patches using the regular adop cycle on the other file system.

adop phase=fs_clone

3. Applying Localization Patch

R12 EMEA Add-on Localizations – Turkey (Doc ID 472686.1)

Before you start with the implementation of the localizations, please review the My Oracle Support Note 1668516.1 EMEA Add-on Localizations – Implementation considerations.

4. Creating CLE Product & Applying Mandatory Patches for R12.2 EMEA Add-on Localizations (Doc ID 1628719.1)

• ADsplice CLE product on EBS Application

As an application User you need to source the run top using EBSapps.env present in your Base directory.

. ./EBSapps.env - R

a. Download Patch 13725897 from My Oracle Support to your patch top.

b. Manually copy the three .txt files from the 13725897\cle\admin directory to your own temporary directory.

Note: Please do not apply driver file (u13725897.drv) from the patch.

c. Open newprods.txt in a text editor.

Modify any other values as appropriate.

In this example case, the modified version of this file will look like the following:

product=cle

base_product_top= *APPL_TOP*

oracle_schema=cle

sizing_factor=100

main_tspace= APPS_TS_TX_DATA

index_tspace=APPS_TS_TX_IDX

temp_tspace=TEMP

default_tspace= APPS_TS_TX_DATA

Copy the following text files to the $APPL_TOP/admin directory

cleprod.txt

cleterr.txt

newprods.txt

Change directory to the admin directory under $APPL_TOP

Run adsplice

adsplice must be run from the admin directory under APPL_TOP, and is invoked by running the adsplice command.
