FYI - I've now installed this onto a client's site. So far, the everything has gone well, however, there were a couple of hitches during the installation of the patch:

When installing the CU3 patch, I received the error:

Incorrect OTM Version!
----------------------
This patch is not compatible with the version of OTM you have installed under

This was resolved by changing the following entries in the glog.properties file from:

glog.software.version=Otmv552
glog.software.patch.version=Otmv552-P20061218

To:

glog.software.version=OTMv55
glog.software.patch.version=OTMv55-CU02

Note: This should only occur if your OTM installation is based off of the v5.5.2 installer and was not updated manually to CU02.

Next while running the installer, it errored out and crashed with the message:

Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)

Stack Trace:

This Application has Unexpectedly Quit: Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)

This is a known issue - just re-run the patch and it will succeed the 2nd time.

Finally, when applying the DB portion of the OTM patch, it notifies you that a particular patch (5730086) will not be applied automatically, due to potential performance issues.

Here's the details of patch 5730086:

Description: Shipment actions do not work well on shipments with arbitraries.

Details: Actions such as Recalculate Cost and Assign Rate can be performed on shipments with arbitraries. Also added an order movement action to Build Shipments and select/refine shipments on a leg.

If you decide to apply this patch, just sqlplus into your OTM DB as glogowner and run the following:

@create_dbpatch_55
exec dbpatch_55.apply_patch('patch5730086');
drop package dbpatch_55;

Hope this helps!
