Good day list,
Very recently we have upgraded our 10gR2 (10.2.0.4) databases to 11gr2 and
applied latest PSU patch (11.2.0.2.4). However, for some concerns, the
COMPATIBLE parameter value was kept to 10.2.0.4. Now we need to change the
COMPATIBLE parameter value reflecting to 11gR2. Therefore, I need an advice
over setting the parameter to 11.2.0 OR 11.2.0.2.4? What are the pros and
cons do you foresee.

Thanks in advance.
