Recommended actions: OPatch needs to modify files which are being used by some processes.
OPatch failed with error code 41
Cause
Something is using oracle library.
Solution
I had solved the issue first looking at the log file and saw that the inuse control made by fuser, this is also a clue for me to find who is using the library file.
oracle@mydb1>/sbin/fuser /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/lib/libclntsh.so.11.1
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/lib/libclntsh.so.11.1: 12195m
oracle@mydb1>
oracle@mydb1>ps -ef |grep 12195
oracle 12195 11944 0 Jan19 pts/7 00:00:00 adrci
oracle 22813 3717 0 21:18 pts/13 00:00:00 grep 12195
oracle@mydb1>kill -9 12195
After than I had successfully applied the patch.
