What happens when you give "STARTUP UPGRADE"?

What happens when you give "STARTUP UPGRADE"?
 ===============================================

 The UPGRADE keyword enables you to open a database based on an earlier Oracle Database release. 
 It also restricts logons to AS SYSDBAsessions, disables system triggers, and performs additional 
 operations that prepare the environment for the upgrade.

 You might be required to use the PFILE option to specify the location of your initialization parameter 
file.
Once the database is started in upgrade mode, only queries on fixed views execute without errors until 
after the catupgrd.sql script is run. Before running catupgrd.sql, queries on any other view or the use
 of PL/SQL returns an error.

 ------>in 11gR2 you can use the "diagcollection.pl"script to collect diagnostic data from root user

associated with bundle series CPU. Check the following log files for any errors:
