Leap seconds and Fusion Middleware

Since I have talked about the leap second in conjunction with Exadata and Linux OS, as well as Exalytics, I think the My Oracle Support document "Leap Second Vulnerability on Fusion Middleware Products" from article ID 2024181.1 is a great resource even if not on Fusion yet because of all the links it has about the issue!  While Fusion Middleware does not appear to be affect by this, the document DOES admit that there are certain reasons why you would need to address this issue with some of those relating to the precision required and if your application needs it as well.

Exalytics and leap seconds

As my original post about leap seconds is now my most viewed post I'll assume the topic is popular and share with you what I just found in MOS note "Leap Second Issue on Exalytics" via document ID 2017196.1 as some kernels supporting Exalytics ARE affected by the leap second difference that is coming up on June 30th!

Exadata 12.1.2.1.1 has been released!

A few days ago I shared a post about Exadata 12.1.2.1.0 being released and today I see the document "Exadata 12.1.2.1.1 release and patch (20240049)" posted on MOS via note ID 1959143.1 which also addresses the issue I posted last weekend about how leap seconds are a problem on Exadata version 12!
