While trying to apply patches to upgrade to 12.2.4, adop failed due to the below errors.

Validating system setup...    [ERROR]     Failed to execute SQL statement : select AD_ZD_ADOP.GET_INVALID_NODES() from dual    [ERROR]     Error Message :     [ERROR]     Failed to execute SQL statement : select AD_ZD_ADOP.GET_INVALID_NODES() from dual    [ERROR]     Error Message :     [UNEXPECTED]Nodes "-1" are listed in ADOP_VALID_NODES table but not in FND_NODES table.    [UNEXPECTED]To correct this, run AutoConfig on nodes "-1"    [UNEXPECTED]Error while checking if this is a multi node instance

　　

MOS had a direct hit on this (1988581.1):  “Nodes “-1″ are listed in ADOP_VALID_NODES table but not in FND_NODES table.”, but it didn’t fix the issue.  In fact in accordance with this note I was fine.

 

FIX:
