what happens when you re-apply(meaning you make updates to the (current instance) update set(global) and then re-apply that update set to the same instance

i am guessing it just re-writes everything and makes the new updates? goranlundqvist

thanks

I believe it will skip everything and will update only the new changes that you have directly added in the global update set.

Not really following here either.

Does I understand you correct:

• You make changes to an instance and save those in a update set.
• Now you want take take update set and apply it on the same instance?

I never done that, not ever sure how you apply the update set to the same instance and if that even is possible.

Curious for the reason here 😃

Hello Goran!

For instance I need to reapply an update set because when it was committed at first time some objects referenced were missing. The warning was "Could not find a record in sys_ui_policy referenced in this update, but did find it in another uncommitted update set". Instead of sys_ui_policy there might be question for example. And because such updates have been skipped I need to commit the update set again.
