WebCenter upgrade checklist

A practical starter checklist to plan upgrades with fewer surprises.

  1. Inventory versions, patches, bundles, JVM, OS, DB.
  2. List custom components and dependencies.
  3. Review integrations (SOA/OIC/AP/SSO/LDAP) and endpoints.
  4. Set up DEV/UAT environments that mirror PROD.
  5. Run a full dry-run upgrade and capture issues.
  6. Prepare cutover plan with rollback strategy.
  7. Execute validation checklist (functional + integrations).
  8. Enable monitoring and finalize runbooks.
Replace this sample with your own checklist and examples from real projects.
