Adding Dependent Patches

Add dependent patches for a patch that has dependent patches to ensure that certain patches are applied before others in Fleet Application Management.

• Console
• CLI
• API

• 1. On the Patches list page, select the patch that you want to work with. If you need help finding the list page or the patch, see Listing Patches.
  2. On the patch details page, under Dependent patches, select Add dependent patches.
     The Select dependent patches list page opens. By default, all custom dependent patches in the selected compartment are displayed in a table.
  3. To view the dependent patches in a different compartment, use the Compartment filter to switch compartments or use the Type filter to select Oracle defined patches.
  4. Select the checkbox next to the dependent patches you want from a compartment.
     Note
     
     Switch the compartment to select different set of patches.
  5. Select Select patches.
     The selected patches are added under Dependent patches.
  6. Alter the order of dependent patches to arrange them in the order you want them to run when they're applied to the resources.
     Note
     
     To alter the order, from the Actions menu () in the row for that dependent patch, select an appropriate order.

• Use the oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-operations patch create-patch-generic-artifact-details command and parameters to add dependent patches to a generic patch:

  oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-operations patch create-patch-generic-artifact-details --artifact-details-artifact <json_file_or_string> --compartment-id <compartment_OCID> --name <text> --patch-type <json_file_or_string> --product <json_file_or_string> --severity <text> --time-released <datetime> [OPTIONS]

  Use the oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-operations patch create-patch-generic-artifact-details command and parameters to add dependent patches to a platform-specific patch:

  oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-operations patch create-patch-platform-specific-artifact-details --artifact-details-artifacts <json_file_or_string> --compartment-id <compartment_OCID> --name <text> --patch-type <json_file_or_string> --product <json_file_or_string> --severity <text> --time-released <datetime> [OPTIONS]
