Is relinking oracle binary mandatory after OS patching ?

MaxJun 22 2017 — edited Jun 27 2017

RDBMS version: 11.2.0.4

Operating System : RHEL 6.9

DB Type : Standalone

I have a DB which went to production last month. Linux team wanted to urgently patch this DB server.

So, I shut down this DB for OS level patching. Lot of packages including kernel packages were patched.Then I brought up the DB and the listener without any issues. But, now I realized that I hadn't executed the relink script provided by oracle. Should I get a downtime and shutdown the DB and run the relink script ?
