The post list the steps for downgrading grid infrastructure from 11.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.3. The environment used for this downgrade had a successful upgrade to 11.2.0.4 from 11.2.0.3
On all the nodes other than the OCR-node run the rootcrs.pl with the downgrade option from the new GI HOME (11.2.0.4 home).
Once all the non-OCR Nodes are downgraded, run the downgrade on the OCR-Node with the lastnode option.

[grid@rhel6m1 grid]$ crsctl query crs activeversionIf the upgrade to 11.2.0.4 failed on one or on the last node or the downgrade is to a version prior to 11.2 then refer the metalink notes given at the end of the post on how to do a downgrade in such cases. This post also doesn't consider the downgrade of the database. Clusterware must be same or at a higher version than the database software. In this case the database software was still on 11.2.0.3 so downgrading from 11.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.3 wasn't an issue for the database. The old GI home (11.2.0.3 home) was not uninstalled nor removed after the upgrade to 11.2.0.4
Oracle Clusterware active version on the cluster is [11.2.0.4.0]
[grid@rhel6m1 grid]$ crsctl query crs softwareversion
Oracle Clusterware version on node [rhel6m1] is [11.2.0.4.0]
<HOME NAME="Ora11g_gridinfrahome1" LOC="/opt/app/11.2.0/grid" TYPE="O" IDX="1"> <-- 11.2.0.3 GI HOMEBefore proceeding with the downgrade identify the "ocr-node". OCR node an Oracle term for the node which created the backup of the OCR when the GI was upgraded. This is usually the node on which the first rootupgrade.sh was run during the upgrade. Look in the cdata folder inside GI HOME and locate the backup ocr of the form ocrold_version.
