升級環境：
1、 11.2.0.1 to RAC 11.2.0.2RAC
2、RAC 11.2.0.1 to RAC 11.2.0.3
3、RAC 11.2.0.2 to RAC 11.2.0.3
以上DB軟件均是通過out-of-place upgrade方法升級。
如果在升級完成後，發現升級過程有問題，需要回退，我們可以選擇兩種回退辦法：
1. 通過閃回的辦法還原到11.2.0.1 /11.2.0.3的數據庫
2. 執行catdwgrd.sql 降級數據字典數據庫
以下我們介紹通過閃回數據庫的辦法還原到11.2.0.1 /11.2.0.3的數據庫
關於執行catdwgrd.sql 降級數據字典詳見：How To Downgrade From Database 11.2 To Previous Release (includes 11.2.0.3-11.2.0.1) [ID883335.1]
一、檢查已升級的數據庫版本（11.2.0.3）
備註：
我們在升級11.2.0.3的數據字典之前已經做了數據庫的閃回點

二、回退過程（to 11.2.0.2）
1、關閉RAC所有節點的實例
2、在所有節點上關閉數據庫實例，並在一個節點上啓動數據庫到mount模式進行閃回。

3 、使用srvctl命令更新ocr中DBHOME相關信息
$ su - oracle
%srvctl upgrade database -d racdb -o $NEW_ORACLE_HOME
$ srvctl upgrade database -d racdb -o /oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0
$ srvctl config database -d racdb
4、更環境變量到11.2.0及pfile等。
5、啓動數據庫：
6、 檢查版本信息
