What does crsctl query crs releaseversion, activeversion, softwareversion mean ?

- Use the crsctl query crs releaseversion command to display the version of the Oracle Clusterware software 
  stored in the binaries on the local node.
  --> Setting the PATH variable will change the results of this command 


- Use the crsctl query crs activeversion command to display the active version of the Oracle Clusterware software 
   running in the cluster. 
  --> During a rolling upgrade, however, the active version is not advanced until the upgrade is finished across the 
      cluster, until which time the cluster operates at the pre-upgrade version :
      Run a ps command and check the full process name to figure out the activeversion:

    CRS-6705: Oracle Clusterware Release Version (‘12.1.0.2.0’) does not match Software Version (‘11.2.0.4.0’). Oracle Clusterware cannot be started.
