How to Upgrade from WebLogic 10.3.6.0.0 to 10.3.6.171017

The steps for this upgrade are largely the same as for this post: http://hyperipwn.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/how-to-upgrade-from-weblogic-103600-to.html

WebLogic 10.3.6.171017 is in patch set 26519424. It is designed to address the following CVEs:
CVE-2017-3506
CVE-2015-7501
CVE-2014-0114
CVE-2017-10137
CVE-2017-10147
CVE-2017-10178
CVE-2017-10148
CVE-2017-10063
CVE-2017-10271
CVE-2017-10152
CVE-2017-10352
CVE-2017-10336
CVE-2017-10334
CVE-2014-0107

Please note that the steps are largely the same as the previous blog post, except the patch ID is different:

bsu.cmd -install -patch_download_dir=E:\Oracle\Middleware\utils\bsu\cache_dir -patchlist=FMJJ -prod_dir=E:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3 -verbose

If you receive an OutOfMemory error when applying the patch you much edit the bsu.cmd file, to increase the memory arguments:

set MEM_ARGS=-Xms1024m -Xmx2048m

The default is 256MB and 512MB, respectively.

When you start up the services, expect to see a log line ending like the below at the top of the WebLogic log files:

Useless CDF Information

Did you know that the Essbase CDF included with Calculation Manager 11.1.2.4.000 is almost exactly the same as the one included with 11.1.2.3.503?

Did you also that the Essbase CDF included with Calculation Manager 11.1.2.4.002 is almost exactly the same as the one included with 11.1.2.3.700?

Just some useless CDF information...
