WhenI was upgrading Grid to 18c, the final step was to run gridSetup.sh -executeConfigTools, which failed. Unfortunately, the error provided was not very descriptive or useful. In this post, I will demonstrate how I went about troubleshooting the failure.
To start the 18c upgrade, run script gridSetup_applyRU.sh
(Please note: I have scripted the process.)

In conclusion, following the two steps provided may help to simply troubleshooting for gridSetup.sh -executeConfigTools failure since the information provided by the upgrade process is not very clear as to what logs need to be reviewed
1. Check time*.log to identify which step failed.
2. Check gridSetupActions*.log to identify more details.
