My question about the objects listed in Impacted Obj. is that there are fewer rows in this report than what are shown in the log file for the patch in scope, Patch xxxxxxx. My understanding is that the log file records the files that will be copied from the patch folder to the target system. These are new files and files with higher versions. In this example, in the log file under the "Filelist for files we would have copied is" line, there're over 300 files to be copied, plus a large number of Java class files. Are these files supposed to be on the Impacted Obj. report? The list I got from clicking Impacted Obj. was far less than what's shown in the log file. There were only 133 rows from Impacted Obj., and those were all .plx and .fmx objects. Did I miss objects in this report?
RESOLUTION:
The impacted object list in Stat is a list of objects that are also modified if/when an object in the patch is installed. Stat obtains the version of the object from the environment (old version) and reads the patch files to obtain the new version. Some objects don't have versions in the patch files. They may need to be compiled in the environment to have a version. Other objects just simply do not have a version. So you may see some objects without value for new value in the patch analysis report, this is expected.
