E-Business Suite 12.1.3 Now Available for IBM Linux on System z

Our Applications Platform Engineering team continues to make great strides for the IBM: Linux on System z platform.  Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.3 (12.1 Release Update Pack 3) is now available on IBM: Linux on System z. This Release Update Pack (RUP) combines error corrections and statutory/regulatory updates made available after the base Release 12.1.2 on Linux on System z into a consolidated suite-wide patch set. The operating systems certified with EBS on this platform are:

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) version 5 (64-bit)
• Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) version 9 (64-bit)
• Novell SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) version 10 (64-bit)

With the release of this RUP on the platform, the previous limitation of 12.1 application tier platform migration involving Linux on System z is removed and customers can perform this migration following the document outlined below starting with Release 12.1.3. The RUP is available on My Oracle Support as patch 9239090 and can only be applied on top of an existing Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.2 on this platform. References
