EBSO 12.2.x : Query to check status of ADOP session

Check Status of adop session using below sql query:

set pagesize 200;
set linesize 160;
col PREPARE_STATUS format a15
col APPLY_STATUS format a15
col CUTOVER_STATUS format a15
col ABORT_STATUS format a15
col STATUS format a15
select NODE_NAME,ADOP_SESSION_ID, PREPARE_STATUS , APPLY_STATUS ,CUTOVER_STATUS , CLEANUP_STATUS , ABORT_STATUS , STATUS
from AD_ADOP_SESSIONS
order by ADOP_SESSION_ID;

Decoding Cutover status:

cutover_status=’Y’ ‘COMPLETED’
cutover_status not in (‘N’,’Y’,’X’) and status=’F’ ‘FAILED’
cutover_status=’0′ ‘CUTOVER STARTED’
cutover_status=’1′ ‘SERVICES SHUTDOWN COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’3′ ‘DB CUTOVER COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’D’ ‘FLIP SNAPSHOTS COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’4′ ‘FS CUTOVER COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’5′ ‘ADMIN STARTUP COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’6′ ‘SERVICES STARTUP COMPLETED’
cutover_status=’N’ ‘NOT STARTED’
cutover_status=’X’ ‘NOT APPLICABLE’

EBS 12.2.X Patching: ADOP Cutover failed while running txkADOPCutOverPhaseCtrlScript.pl

Issue:

During an adop online patching cycle, cutover phase failed while running the script txkADOPCutOverPhaseCtrlScript.pl

[PROCEDURE] Starting Middle Tier Services
[UNEXPECTED]Error occurred running “perl /test/app/fs1/EBSapps/appl/ad/12.0.0/patch/115/bin/txkADOPCutOverPhaseCtrlScript.pl -contextfile=/test/app/fs1/inst/apps/EBSTEST_testebsmt111/appl/admin/EBSTEST_testebsmt111.xml -patchcontextfile=/test/app/fs1/2/inst/apps/EBSTEST_testebsmt111/appl/admin/EBSTEST_testebsmt111.xml -promptmsg=hide -console=off -sessionid=14 -timestamp=20201108_194155 -outdir=/test/app/fs_ne/EBSapps/log/adop/14/20201108_194155/cutover/testebsmt111 -action=forcestartup”
[UNEXPECTED]Cutover phase has failed.

Cause:

Review of all adop and cutover log files shows that Cutover phase failed after filesystem switch and ADMIN server startup,oacore services could not be started after cutover due to port conflict.

Resolution:

1. Check Status of adop session using below sql query:
set pagesize 200;
set linesize 160;
col PREPARE_STATUS format a15
col APPLY_STATUS format a15
col CUTOVER_STATUS format a15
col ABORT_STATUS format a15
col STATUS format a15
select NODE_NAME,ADOP_SESSION_ID, PREPARE_STATUS , APPLY_STATUS ,CUTOVER_STATUS , CLEANUP_STATUS , ABORT_STATUS , STATUS
from AD_ADOP_SESSIONS
order by ADOP_SESSION_ID;
For my issue, cutover status was 5, which means ADMIN startup is completed.

2. Restart the cutover phase with mtrestart=no option

adop phase=cutover mtrestart=no

3. Fix the issues related to services startup on RUN filesystem (which is switched after cutover).

4. Startup the services

5. Perform cleanup phase and complete the adop cycle
adop phase=cleanup

Oracle EBS 12.2.X Login fails with “Unable to create anonymous session. ICX_SESSION_CREATION_FAILED”

Issue:

In a 12.2.6 EBS environment, Login fails with below error

Unable to create anonymous session. ICX_SESSION_CREATION_FAILED (userid=6) exception oracle.apps.fnd.common.PoolException: Exception creating new Poolable object. Encountered a java exception with the message Exception creating new Poolable object. Cause:java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.sql.SQLException: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException.

Analysis:

The error indicates that there are not enough resources to create a new JDBC session. oacore_server.log has the below error messages

Number of processes capacity for the Datasource “EBSDatasource” is exhausted.

Solution:

1. Increase the number of sessions in EBSDatasource

Click on Lock and Edit, Go to Connection Pool Tab, Increase the value in Number of sessions field.

Click on Activate Changes.

This change does not require any restart of services.

(or)

Alternate Solution:

2. Bounce oacore_server to release any inactive sessions and free up the resources

cd $ADMIN_SCRIPTS_HOME

admanagedsrvctl.sh stop oacore_server

admanagedsrvctl.sh start oacore_server

where
(
fa.application_id = fpi.application_id and
fa.application_id = fatl.application_id and
fatl.language = ‘US’
)
order by fa.application_short_name;

Check for values in Status column of the output, usually either I or N or S.

I – Installed
