I Automated Oracle 19.28 Database and Grid Patching with Ansible — Here Are the Playbooks
I’ve been using Ansible for Oracle database patching for a while now, mainly to standardize and simplify the process across environments.
Although 19.31 is around the corner and it’s already time to move forward with the usual n-1 approach (19.30), I realized I never shared my updated playbooks for 19.28.
The playbooks cover:
- Grid Infrastructure patching
- Database RU + MRP
- RAC environments
- Out-of-place patching
They reflect what I actually use in real systems, not just a lab setup.
If you're dealing with Oracle patching and want something repeatable and less manual, this might help.
Feedback / suggestions welcome.
