Patchset 11.2.0.3

[Former Member]

We want to upgrade 11.2.0.2 to 11.2.0.3 (on windows), I am checking patchset on marketplace but no luck.

Is there need to run 11.2.0.3 full installation pack?

Thanks

Yes. This is default strategy from version 11.2. From SAP Note:

"

Oracle Database 11.2 Patch Sets Are Full Installations

Starting with the first patch set for Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2), Oracle Database patch sets are full installations of the
Oracle Database software.

In the past (before release 11.2), Oracle Database patch sets consisted of a set of files that replaced files in an existing Oracle home. Beginning with Oracle Database 11g Release 2, patch sets are full installations that replace existing installations.

For further details and information about full installation patch sets see My Oracle Support note 1189783.1.
