I really love our customers. Many people are so super-smart. A few weeks ago I delivered a full-day hands-on workshop for ora2know in Munich and some (positively) crazy people fly in very early morning from the other end of Germany to attend. Others catch a train at night time (which is the bigger adventure in Germany these days). I feel really grateful since this was also a pay-for-it workshop. It was a great day, I’ve had lots of fun – and the attendees hopefully as well. Dagmar sent me an email a few days later with the subject similar to …

DBMS_OPTIM_BUNDLE and the standby database?
I could have sworn that I had blogged about it. Aleksey had a comment on the blog and I could not find the answer. But I knew that I had discussed this topic with several people in email already. Maybe it has fallen off my long list of future blog posts. No worries, here it is: DBMS_OPTIM_BUNDLE and the standby database?
DBMS_OPTIM_BUNDLE – short recap

What are we going to talk about?
The development team invested a lot of resources to implement some of the most wanted features in AutoUpgrade. Spoiler: One feature is still missing but will be released very soon. In this Thursday’s Virtual Classroom Seminar we will talk about:
- PDB and non-CDB
AutoUpgrade and Data Guard, RAC, Restart and non-CDB to PDB

I refer to the AutoUpgrade tool as of July 2019. In later versions, one or the other restriction may be lifted. I will blog about it then as well.
