How to skip a failed worker using adctrl utility?

Skip worker while applying patch using adpatch

 

Error: 

 

FAILED: file mth_pre_upgrade.sql on worker 1.    (if you are running adpatch for second time u will get this errror).

 

Solution:

 

    1. Start adctrl utility (see more info here How to use adctrl utility to restart failed worker in patch application?)
     
    2. You will be shown 7 options in the main menu. But there is an 8th option that is not shown.
    
    3. Use option 8 to skip a failed worker. Simply type 8 and hit enter key. The worker will be skipped.
    
    4. Now resume your patch application
