I believe that is the easiest/cleanest way to restore from patches esp. when you don't know what those patches contain.

Gurus,
I was just given a project to maintain a Computerized Maintenance
Management System. When I asked the companies support staff how to roll
back patches in the backend Oracle Database (Ver. 8174), they said that
there was no way to do this. I'm guessing I could use logminer just incase
a patch doesn't work. Would this be a good solution, or are there other
(better) ways of safeguarding myself when it comes to patching? Obviously,
I will be applying the patches to a test instance first, but I don't want
to have to go back to restore from a backup if the patch causes unexpected
issues.
TIA!
