11i Step 1: Pre-install Tasks

Apply IZU Splice Patch
If adsplice Patch 3636980 for 11i has never been applied to your E-Business Suite release before, download and apply adsplice patch Patch 3636980 for 11i. If this patch is already applied, go to the next step.

adsplice Patch Installation Notes
"Oracle Diagnostic Tools" (short name "IZU" - product top "$IZU_TOP") is a new application in the E-Business Suite. If you have not done so before, you will need to add the IZU product to your installation. Applying Patch 3636980 for 11i will do this. Customers with "AutoConfig" enabled systems should be on AD patchset I.2 ( Patch 4337683 ) or above to ensure the new "IZU" product is registered correctly in autoconfig files. Customers on AD.H or below may need to execute adsplice twice to correctly register the IZU product into FND_PRODUCT_INSTALLATIONS table. See the adsplice patch readme for additional details. Customers with multi-node installations of E-Business Suite should run the adsplice patch on all nodes. Tablespace sizing details can be found in Note 235307.1.
