Tru64 Unix-Oracle9i Cluster Quick Reference

Operating system upgrades and patches can be installed in the cluster environment without any Oracle downtime as long as at least one member of the cluster is running. The rolling upgrade process is a series of steps, also referred to as stages. The rolling upgrade commands ensure that the steps are followed.
Following the summary in Table 4-3, one cluster member is always available during the operating system patch installation. One member of the cluster is upgraded and available while the next member is booted and upgraded.
