well you have a connection that needs to be killed - if its a problem just kill the process

which shutdown command did u use? As it seems, it is shutdown normal. So, either wait for all sessions to log off or if it is important, kill the oracle process. Oracle will be able to recover committed work using instance recovery.

WAIT! do this in the sqlplus session (as sysdba) where you executed the shutdown command:

{Ctrl-C}
SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
-- Or if the shutdown does not work:
SHUTDOWN ABORT;

Kiiling the Oracle process is not advisable and should be use as last resort.

Right! new connection can't be made.
