Creating a Patch Type

Create a software patch type in Fleet Application Management based on the standards required for a product in your organization. When you create a patch type, it's automatically assigned an active status.

You can create platform test, common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVE), or feature update patch types.
    1. Open the navigation menu and click Observability & Management. Under Fleet Application Management, click Administration.
    2. Under Metadata management (on the left side of the page), click Patch types.
    3. Click Create patch type.
    4. In the Create patch type panel, enter a unique name for the patch type. Avoid entering confidential information.
    5. Click Create.
      The patch type is created and is available for selection when you create a product.

  • Use the oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin platform-configuration create-platform-configuration-patch-type-config-category-details command and required parameters to create a software patch type:

    oci fleet-apps-management fleet-apps-management-admin platform-configuration create-platform-configuration-patch-type-config-category-details [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for Fleet Application Management CLI commands, see the CLI for Fleet Application Management.

  • Run the CreatePlatformConfiguration operation to create a custom patch type.
