Preface

This guide describes tasks that a system administrator performs to apply the WebSDM 3.1.2.1 patch update to an existing WebSDM 3.1.2 installation on a Windows 2003 or Windows 2008 server. If you are running a version of the WebSDM and Empirica Study applications prior to version 3.1.2, contact Oracle for assistance because you must upgrade to version 3.1.2 before performing this upgrade procedure.

Audience

This guide is for system administrators or database administrators who are familiar with Oracle relational databases and who host the WebSDM and Empirica Study application in their own environments, rather than contracting for this service from Oracle.


Note:

In this guide, the product name WebSDM refers to both the WebSDM standalone product and WebSDM with the optional Empirica Study features, which are licensed separately.
