@psshah, The website I provided in the first post got README from Oracle, so if Oracle doesn't request any special installation steps is it safe to apply this patch even if it Prod env?
Or should I test it in Dev env first?
As you mention this env is very critical even if I applied this patch in single user mode because it has RAC and Sun Cluster sw.
If you value your job in the slightest, you should test the patch on a test system first and not on critical production systems.
