How can I determine if a Critical Patch Update has been installed?

455096Mar 22 2006 — edited Mar 23 2006
I know I can use opatch -lsinventory to confirm that a the patch has been installed in an Oracle home, but how can I check to see if the CPU script (catcpu.sql) has been run in a database?

I'd like to know for two reasons:
1. I am concerned because I have many databases to patch under a single Oracle home and I'd like to check them all to make sure I didn't miss any.
2. I've heard that I'll have to run catcpu.sql in any new database I create under this Oracle home. I know I'll eventually forget to do this, so I'd like some way to check if the script has been run.

Thanks in advance
