Let me verify by paraphrasing:

1. Two machines, V880 & E4500, set up to talk to same 9.2.0.5SE DB instance (controlled so it's not concurrent), with NAS or SAN (not sure which).

Database is started on one machine, then shutdown.

b) When E4500 (Solaris 7) is used, shutdown instance goes down properly;

c) When V880 (Solaris 8) is used, all shuts down except the two processes that are supposed to write (and wait for write verification) to the shared disk.

If this is true, perhaps you could indicate a bit more on the disk subsystem.
