How to Patch oracle 18c/19c Non RAC (Single Instance) database

NOTE: Starting from 18c Oracle calls Patch Set Update (PSU), as Release Update (RU).
S
tep1> Download the Patch
Download the patch to be applied from oracle support


Step2> Transfer the patch on the sever and unzip it using unzip utility
Note: I am using OCT2019 PSU(RU) together with OJVM patch
p30112122_180000_Linux-x86-64.zip  <= OCT DB PSU (DB RU)
p30133603_180000_Linux-x86-64.zip  <= OCT JAVA Patch


$unzip p30112122_180000_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /OCT_2019_PSU/
$unzip p30133603_180000_Linux-x86-64.zip -d /OCT_2019_PSU/


Step3> Verify Utility the Opatch version
OPatch Utility:
You must use the OPatch utility version as described in README file for the patch. Oracle recommends that you use the latest released OPatch version for 18c, which is available for download from My Oracle Support patch 6880880 by selecting the 18.0.0.0.0 release.
$export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch
$opatch version
OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.17
OPatch succeeded.


Step4> Perform Patch Conflict Detection and Resolution

export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/product/18c/db_home
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch

cd /OCT_2019_PSU/30112122/
opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -ph ./


cd /OCT_2019_PSU/30133603/
opatch prereq CheckConflictAgainstOHWithDetail -ph ./


Logs Provided Below "Conflict Resolution Run Log"

Step5> Apply the patch
To apply the patch shut down all the database listener from the OH you are going to patch

Apply DB PSU
as oracle user
$cd /OCT_2019_PSU/30112122/$opatch apply


Apply Java Patch

$cd /OCT_2019_PSU/30133603/
$opatch apply


logs for DB patch and JAVA patch provided below 
"DB Patch Run Log"
"JAVA Patch Run Log"

Step6> Start the oracle processes (DB + Listener)
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> Connect / as sysdba
SQL> startup
SQL> alter pluggable database all open;
SQL> quit

$lsnrctl start LISTENER01

Step7> Load Modified SQL Files into the Database

cd $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch
./datapatch -verbose

Logs provided below "Datapatch Run Log"

Step8> Run utlrp.slq to compile the invalid Objects
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
SQL> @utlrp.sql
