What we fixed and improved

Please download the new July 2019 (20190715) AutoUpgrade

But why should you take the new tool? Take it because we fixed 26 issues to the June version. At the end of the MOS Note you find a text file called BUGS_20190715. This file contains all the fix descriptions included into this and of course the previous versions, too.

Especially for RAC environments, cluster_database will be kept now at FALSE until the very end of upgrade completion. The same behavior fixes issues with unsupported parameters which caused trouble during the restart of the database. But please, browse the list by yourself.
