    Hi all !
    We have a Solaris Server with one Oracle_Home (817) and several databases.
    Is it possible to install the 8.1.7.4 patch just for one database or do we have to install the patch on the whole server's databases ?
    Thanks a lot in advance !

    Ah, kind of yes, kind of no. You patch the ORACLE_HOME only once, but if you have to re-run the catalog scripts, it has to be done for EACH instance.
