I have upgraded my 2 node RAC to 19.8 from 12.2 using GUI Method. But I want to create a blog post of upgrade using silent method. So, I am downgrading my RAC Grid Home from 19.8 to previous 12.2 version.
My environment
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [oel7n1] is [19.0.0.0.0]
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [19.0.0.0.0]
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwarepatch
Oracle Clusterware patch level on node oel7n1 is [441346801].
[oracle@OEL7N2 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [oel7n2] is [19.0.0.0.0]
[oracle@OEL7N2 ~]$ crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [19.0.0.0.0]
[oracle@OEL7N2 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwarepatch
Oracle Clusterware patch level on node oel7n2 is [441346801].We need to delete the mgmt database now. We will check from which node it is running. Delete command needs to be run from that node only
[oracle@OEL7N2 ~]$ srvctl status mgmtdb
Database is enabled
Database is not running.
crsctl stat res -t output is following
ora.mgmtdb
1 ONLINE OFFLINE Instance Shutdown,ST
ABLELet's start it up.
Nothing seems to work
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ srvctl start mgmtdb

Look at the log file "/u01/app/grid/cfgtoollogs/dbca/-MGMTDB/-MGMTDB.log" for further details.This behaviour can be because of mgmtdb being optional in 19c. Let's see further for more details.
Let's run the downgrade command

Seems like a network issue. As this is a lab environemnt, this kind of issues are quite normal. Let me check my dns setting
So, here my dns settings are all broken and resolv.conf doesn't have my dns server ip. Most probably I forgot to do chattr +i for /etc/resolv.conf
[root@OEL7N1 oracle]# nslookup OEL7N2

[root@OEL7N1 oracle]# cat /etc/resolv.conf

After restart of cluster, we can see that mgmtdb is available now. Need to delete it again.

[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [oel7n1] is [12.2.0.1.0]
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [12.2.0.1.0]
[oracle@OEL7N1 ~]$ crsctl query crs softwarepatch
Oracle Clusterware patch level on node oel7n1 is [1831702305].
[root@OEL7N2 oracle]# crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [oel7n2] is [12.2.0.1.0]
[root@OEL7N2 oracle]# crsctl query crs activeversion
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [12.2.0.1.0]
[root@OEL7N2 oracle]# crsctl query crs softwarepatch
Oracle Clusterware patch level on node oel7n2 is [1831702305].
Let's create the mgmtdb container database. After that we will create the mgmtdb pdb and enable the ora.crf service in both nodes.
