[oracle@msddbadm01 ~]$ opatch lsinventory | grep 21255373

 

If this patch is already applied, you can solve this problem as follows.

 

Download the latest OPatch utility from Oracle support, then start Grid Upgrade as follows.

If you start it like that, then you can continue to upgrade as follows.
