Applying the Patch on the Golden Gate Home

By January 5, 2022August 28th, 2022No Comments3 min read

Consider the Oracle Golden Gate 19c was already installed, and of course, the patches should be taken care of as soon as they are available to address the security vulnerability issues.

The first step is to download and unzip the patch in the staging location
