4. Check the adop status
$ adop -status
5. Goto next phase called Apply Phase
$adop phase=apply patches=<patch_number>
$ adop -status
6. Goto next phase called Finalize Phase
$ adop phase=finalize
$ adop -status

Keep checking Status after every Phase (adop -status)
If there are some reason either the prepare or apply phase failed or any problems then you can abort this patching cycle.
