Question: installing patch kit 5 in multiuser-mode/no-roll with the
following performed:
1. only I can login and sudo my way to root (I would also use "screen"
to protect against disconnect)
2. all applications (i.e. oracle) is down, but normal system daemons are
running and network is up.
Is this a very bad idea (i.e. multiuser mode vs. single user method)?
If I can do it in multiuser mode, (i.e. without having to stand at the
dumb terminal), I can work more efficiently on the 8 boxes that I need
to upgrade (some are cluster members).
Thanks for your experiences/insight.
