Creating a Patch Type

Create a software patch type in Fleet Application Management based on the standards required for a product in your organization. When you create a patch type, it's automatically assigned an active status.

You can create platform test, common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE), or feature update patch types.
    1. On the Patch types list page, select Create patch type. If you need help finding the list page, see Listing Patch Types.
    2. Enter a name for the patch type. It doesn't have to be unique, and it can't be changed later in the Console (but you can change it with the API or CLI). Avoid entering confidential information..
    3. Verify the compartment that you want to create the patch type in. Select another compartment as needed.
    4. Select Create.
    The patch type is created and is available for selection when you create a product.

  • Use the oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin platform-configuration create-platform-configuration-patch-type-config-category-details command and required parameters to create a software patch type:

    oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin platform-configuration create-platform-configuration-patch-type-config-category-details --compartment-id <compartment_OCID> --display-name <text> [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for Fleet Application Management CLI commands, see the CLI for Fleet Application Management.

  • Run the CreatePlatformConfiguration operation to create a custom patch type.
