Let us have a look at the Provisioning and Patching feature in OEM 12c.

We have a ‘gold image’ of a 11.2.0.3 Oracle Database Software where the Jan 2013 PSU has been installed.

We now want to deploy this particular 11.2.0.3 version of the database software on a number of target hosts.

Note – the deployment procedure outlined below assumes that  the 12c management agent has been installed on the target hosts and the Software Library has been setup and configured in OEM 12c.

An Oracle white paper on this subject has recently been released.
