Do it on a test instance first (gives you a time line, tests that the
application procedure works and lets you test your code still works
efficiently) and don't forget to back everything up before hitting your
production instance.

Subject: TIME TAKEN TO INSTALL AN ORACLE PATCH

Hello Gururs,

I trying to install an oracle patch which is running on Solaris 2.8 (32
bit).
The oracle version : 8.1.7.4
The patch is from the october 2005 release.

Can anyone help me on how much time it will take to install the
Oracle patch on this Oracle 8.1.7.4 ?..

This is an urgent issue since we need to install as soon as possible.
Regards
Satish
