We had everything restored to a new server. The backups I am trying to restore from are from an RMAN full hotbackup. This is 9207 on Windows 2003. When I try to login to RMAN doing rman target system/passwd_at_dbname I get:  

ORA-27100 shared memory realm already exists  

However, I can't shutdown the database either because then I get 27101 shared memory realm does not exist.  

I noticed that when they turned the server over to me that the services had already been started.  

How can I get out of this mess?
