$ echo $ORACLE_HOME

Pre check as it is applied or not:
$ opatch lsinventory | grep 21845960  [Main Patch number which no need output]

$ opatch lsinventory | grep 21845942  [Sub-patches if applied should show in output, which we will check after applying the patches]

$ pwd

/apps/ebs/apps/tech_st/10.1.3

$ echo $IAS_ORACLE_HOME
/apps/ebs/apps/tech_st/10.1.3
$ echo $TWO_TASK

As per readme.html these below path should be mentioned in $PATH
$ ls -ltr /usr/bin/ld

$ ls -ld /usr/bin/make
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     bin       212988 May 25  2017 /usr/bin/make

If it now included in PATH then need to export as below shown:

$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin/ld:/usr/bin/ar:/usr/bin/nm:/usr/bin/make

$ echo $PATH
$ pwd

$ pwd

$opatch napply

Note: Here napply we are using for multiple patches to ally as shown above under the cpu patches there were many patches.

After that it will ask many times as Y/N, read once I always provided Y as shown below like:
