However, there is a way to do OOP on Oracle Restart explained here.
This post is based on OOP of a Oracle restart using the steps mentioned in the link above. The current configuration consists of following resources

The new GI home will be /opt/app/oracle/product/19.19.0/grid
1. First step is to install new GI home with the required patches using the software only option. How to do a software only Oracle restart installation was shown in a previous post. In this instance a response file is used and 19.19 RU is applied at install time.
$ ./gridSetup.sh -silent -responseFile /opt/app/oracle/installs/19.19/grid_sw_only.rsp -applyRU /opt/app/oracle/installs/19.19/35037840

Launching Oracle Grid Infrastructure Setup Wizard...
[WARNING] [INS-32022] Grid infrastructure software for a cluster installation must not be under an Oracle base directory.
CAUSE: Grid infrastructure for a cluster installation assigns root ownership to all parent directories of the Grid home location. As a result, ownership of all named directories in the software location path is changed to root, creating permissions errors for all subsequent installations into the same Oracle base.
ACTION: Specify software location outside of an Oracle base directory for grid infrastructure for a cluster installation.
[WARNING] [INS-13014] Target environment does not meet some optional requirements.
CAUSE: Some of the optional prerequisites are not met. See logs for details. /opt/app/oraInventory/logs/GridSetupActions2023-05-11_11-37-14AM/gridSetupActions2023-05-11_11-37-14AM.log

Then either from the log file or from installation manual find the appropriate configuration to meet the prerequisites and fix it manually.
The response file for this session can be found at:
/opt/app/oracle/product/19.19.0/grid/install/response/grid_2023-05-11_11-37-14AM.rsp

To configure Grid Infrastructure for a Cluster or Grid Infrastructure for a Stand-Alone Server execute the following command as oracle user:
/opt/app/oracle/product/19.19.0/grid/gridSetup.sh
This command launches the Grid Infrastructure Setup Wizard. The wizard also supports silent operation, and the parameters can be passed through the response file that is available in the installation media.
2.

3. As root run the prepatch steps on the new GI home. This does not bring any of the running services down.
