SOLUTION:

The above opatch command is trying to apply the patch on both grid and rdbms homes. So for this to succeed the opatch utility version should be same for both grid and rdbms homes. Check opatch version for grid home: Check opatch version for rdbms home: We can see the both the opatch versions are different, So apply the same opatch utility to both the homes to make sure that both of them have same opatch version. You can see below link for : How to install OPatch in ORACLE RAC

Code/Command (click line numbers to comment):

$GRID_HOME/OPatch/opatch version

OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.23

$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch/opatch version

OPatch Version: 12.2.0.1.21

ALTERNATIVE WORKAROUND:

If you dont want to change the opatch utility version, then to avoid this error, you can apply the patch on grid_home and rdbms_home separately as below. For applying patch on grid_home: For applying patch on rdbms_home: Reference – OPATCHAUTO-72088: OPatch version check failed is reported for OPatchauto analyze or apply (Doc ID 2261699.1)
