Different Status of Cutover and their Meaning on Oracle Apps R12.2

The cutover operation is the most critical phase of an online patching cycle. Although other adop operations can be left to run unattended, you should carefully monitor the progress of cutover, so that you can respond quickly in case of any issues. If cutover fails to complete, check log messages for any problems that may require correction. Then try executing the cutover command again. When cutover is re-executed after a previous failure, adop will restart cutover processing at the failure point for any nodes that did not complete, and the processing may be successful this time.

If we run the below script, we can see various status codes for cutover. These can be helpful if the cutover has failed and we need to perform the next steps to fix it.

Script

select NODE_NAME,ADOP_SESSION_ID, PREPARE_STATUS , APPLY_STATUS  ,CUTOVER_STATUS, CLEANUP_STATUS , ABORT_STATUS , STATUS
