R12.2 Automatically set run file system

With R12.2 you now have two file systems (fs): Run and Patch. Both actually being self explanatory. The run fs is where the current instance is being run from ($RUN_BASE) and patch fs is what adop uses to apply patches to before cutting over to use as the run fs ($PATCH_BASE).
So one of the issues possibly for developers is that upon opening a ssh session they will need to source the run files system or even for DBA work you normally use the run fs unless specific work is needed on the patch fs. So how too make it easier than sourcing EBSapps.env each time and then entering either Run or Patch. 

This is what is needed:

source /u01/oracle/EBSapps.env run

Now you could call this ever time you log into the instance or you could add it to $HOME/.bash_profile
This way you will not have to worry about it and the person logging in will be using the run fs where most work is needed.

Cancel or abort adop session

ADOP is in my opinion still pretty half baked. This is a critical tool that just isn't as intuitive as the old adpatch was. However we move with the times and get the hang of the new way of doing things. Along the way you might want to abort or cancel a patching cycling. With the two file systems and db editioning this can be a bit more to manage. I have learnt the hard way so you need to use the full cleanup after aborting a session. adop phase=abort adop phase=cleanup cleanup_mode=full

Creating new WLS domain ends with exit code 255

Cloning the instance I ran into this weird error. Was not sure what to do but after learning my lesson I dug through the error logs after seeing this in the adcfgclone log file.

Error during rapid clone on pasteBinary.sh, exit code 255

I needed to run a clone and was running into a really head scratcher. As is Oracle\'s way they sometimes enjoy giving us DBA's a bit of detective work to do. As usual I kept knocking my head into various brick walls instead of tracking back through the logs. Eventually I came up with the problem Start to configure the run filesystem. You can do a dualfs from AD-TXK Delta 7 but for now I just needed to get this up and running: perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier START: Creating FMW Home.
