由于Solaris上安装10.2的RAC已经有过多次的经验了，这次唯一的区别在于使用裸设备和升级版本到10.2.0.4，因此从头到尾几乎没有碰到任何错误。

不过最后通过DBUA升级的时候还是出了一点意外。

通过XMANAGER方式启动图形界面DBUA进行补丁安装后的数据库升级操作。这个操作要比手工升级简单一些。

但是在图形工具工作进行中，出现了网络的闪断，导致DBUA图形界面丢失。从后台看，数据库的升级工作仍然在继续，但是过了一段时间后，DBUA出现错误信息，这时后台日志也停止了更新。

再次运行DBUA尝试升级，这次发现Oracle只运行对SERVER部分进行升级，而第一次进行升级的时候所有的组件都需要升级。

查询DBA_REGRITY发现升级结果似乎正常，不过仍然不是放心，于是只能通过手工方式对数据库重新进行升级操作。

由于是RAC环境，需要只保留一个节点，并将数据库至于CLUSTER_DATABASE为FALSE的状态下进行升级：
