I think I would still prefer a shutdown abort over a kill -9. There might
be even a slight level of control and error management in a shutdown abort
but not in a kill -9 nothing and I repeat nothing can avoid a kill -9 and
there is no cleanup by the process that is killed.
Cheers

Subject: RE: dbshut script - shutdown or shutdown immediate
Suppose you have a database with a sid of mydb running on unix.
Shutdown abort is like doing the following from the unix command line:
ps -ef | grep mydb | grep -v grep | xargs kill -9. All the processes
that make up the instance or processes that are connected to that
instance are killed. The database will require instance recovery on the
next start.

Well... my official oracle instructor in dba larva school said that it's
tantamount to crashing the db--or so I recall anyway. This isn't so?
