- Uncompress the CPU patch : ORA_WIN_12102_Q1_2018.zip into C:\UPDATE_DIR 
- Go to the folder C:\UPDATE_DIR\27162953 
- set ORACLE_HOME=%NH_ORACLE_HOME_OS%

- C:\UPDATE_DIR\27162953>nhStartDb 
- C:\sqlplus sys/[email protected]%NH_DB_CONNECT_STRING% as sysdba 
- SQL> shutdown abort 
- SQL> startup upgrade 
- SQL> exit; 
- C:\UPDATE_DIR>nhExecDatapatch.sh
