Start with rpmbuild of glibc-2.3.2-11.9.rpm following [1]: <br>
</h4>
<pre>  

1.Download from redhat.com required version of  src.rpm for glibc,
  supposedly   glibc-2.3.2-11.9.src.rpm
2. rpm   -i   glibc-2.3.2-11.9.src.rpm
3. cd /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
4 bzip2  -dc glibc-2.3.2-200313.tar.bz2 | tar xf  -  -C  /tmp
5.cd /tmp/glibc-2.3.2-200313/locale
6. Comment out all compat_symbols lines from lc-ctype.c
7. cd ../ctype
8. Comment out all compat_symbols lines from ctype-info.c
9. cd ..;cd ..;pwd
   /tmp
10. tar cvf glibc-2.3.2-200313.tar glibc-2.3.2-200313
11. bzip2 glibc-2.3.2-200313.tar
12. cp glibc-2.3.2-200313.tar.bz2 /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES
13. cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS
14. vi glbc-9.spec
15. Add to the end of glibcrelease line (line 1) ".oracle".
    Now  11.9 now looks as 11.9.oracle. Then save file.
16. rpmbuild –ba  /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/glbc-9.spec
</pre>

 In my case, at the end rpms were written to /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386 folder <br>

17.Download from [1]:<br>

<p>
At this point run as oracle (no information about this step in [1] ):<br>      

$make  –f   $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/ins_oemagent.mk install<br>      

This  time you will be succeed due  to patched rpms have been installed.<br>     
Now dbsnmp is properly linked and will bring back to life "Intelligent Agent"<br>      
  Then grab from $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh  all commands required <br>     
to install right permissions for dbsnmp  and  dependent directories and <br>     
run  them as root.<br>     
Next steps:<br>      
  
   
$agentctl start <br>
$oemctl start oms<br>
    
 
You are ready to run OEM console.<br>
