Re: Shutdown database abort

Hi,

Preferably try for
1) Shutdown (normal mode ) .If your application has many user connected tell them to disconnect first else this might take eons.

     or
1) shutdown immediate . (Remember this will rollback transactions , but for long uncommitted transactions this will take a long time) )

         As far as possible do not give Shutdown abort except in extreme circumstances .

In Oracle 8 onwards

1. Shutdown transactional will allow you to complete the transaction.

Hi,

To shutdown the database for daily backup, I issue the following commands :

1)     shutdown database abort
2)     startup database normal
3)     shutdown database normal.

Is this the recommended procedure, could gurus share your experience ? Thanks.

Regds,
New Bee
