Has anyone upgraded to 11.2.0.2 (rac and non-rac) yet and would you
say it is better or worse that 11.2.0.1+NovPSU??

The 11.2.0.2 patchset resolved a few issues that led to high waits and
concurrency issues in 11.2.0.1.
I'd say much, much better as 11.2.0.1 plus PSU was not usable and
would have led to a downgrade to 11.1.0.7.
Testing 11.2.0.2 p1 now.

I was out at OOW last fall and talked briefly to several of the
support engineers. They all pretty much unanimously recommending
staying away from 11.2.0.1 and also volunteered that for 11.2.0.2 it
might be smart to wait until 2 or 3 patchset updates are out on it.
So maybe wait it out until April 19 2011 patchset updates are out?

We will be moving from 11.1.0.7.x ( now at 11.1.0.7.6 ) which has been
very stable for us on OEL 5.5 64 bit up to 11.2 sometime this year ...
unless unexpected things shake out. We are non RAC but are using
ASM.
