Relinking Oracle after LibC patch

[Tony Williams]

I need to install the latest HP-UX 11.11 LibC
patch to resolve a HP OV DBSPI problem. Do I need to relink Oracle 8.1.7 after the LibC patch install?

[Aashish Raj · Accepted solution]

Yes.

Pls use the relink all command to relink the oracle after setting proper environment like SHLIB_PATH,LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Hi,
Yes, that would be advisable.
The commands are (I believe, check this !) :
make -f ins_rdbms.mk install
make -f ins_rdbms.mk client_sharedlib
make -f ins_rdbms.mk utilities

Regards,
Tom

When you are re-linking oracle make sure that you shutdown your database and the listener.

The later version of oracle have the relink executable at

$ORACLE_HOME/bin

you can use

$relink all

which will re-link all the executables.

Make sure that you set your
$ORACLE_HOME/lib in your SHLIB_PATH variable.
If you are using 64 bit oracle version make sure also you have $ORACLE_HOME/lib64 in the SHLIB_PATH variable.


Thanks
