Upload the OPatch that is of version “13.8.0.0.0” and platform “226” to the Software Library

I was having an issue trying to deploy a patch to an agent due to the version of OPatch available in the software library.
The error I got was “Upload the OPatch that is of version “13.8.0.0.0” and platform “226” to the Software Library”

The solution was to run the “OPatch Update” job available from the job console in OEM.

Choose “OPatch Update” as job type:

Type a name for the job:

And click submit:

After this the agent patching was successful.
Thanks,
Alfredo

“Failed to find the OPatch patch directory” while applying patch 25105555 ( 13.2.0.0.161231) from OEM console

While applying patch 25105555 ( 13.2.0.0.161231) to an agent using the “provisioning and Patching” console from OEM 13.2 and choosing the “Upgrade OPatch” option, got this error:
———- Error Message ———-
Error: 010
Failed to find the OPatch patch directory “/tmp/p6880880_600000000057471_2000_0/oracle/OPatch”.
If you chose “No” for the “StagePatches” option, ensure that you manually place the patch at the required location and retry the operation.

You have to follow the solution section from below MOS note:
EM 13c: Applying EM-AGENT Bundle Patch 25105555 ( 13.2.0.0.161231) from Enterprise
Manager 13.2 Cloud Control Fails with Message: Error: 010 Failed to find the OPatch patch directory (Doc ID 2229452.1)
It depends on whether you have an online or offline OMS configuration.
After doing this I was able to apply patch 25105555 to the agent.
Hope this helps.
