    I'm working on automating Oracle startup and shutdown on Red Hat Linux 7, for training purposes (I'm a newbie on Linux system).

    A few days ago, there was a thread talking about the procedures involved in automating startup (Unix), I understood it already.

    What I need now is the scripts DBSTART and DBSHUT that should be placed in /etc/rcXX.d. Where can I get them?


    thanks
    Adriano.

    You don't place 'em but, you place 'em in some location and point to that location as follows

    <font face=courier>
    apps% more S97dbstart
    su - oracle -c /export/home/oracle/scripts/dbstart

    apps% more K05dbshut
    su - oracle -c /export/home/oracle/scripts/dbshut
    </font>

    I still couldn't solve my problem

    Symbolic link is defined like this (default runlevel is 5):

    [root@PC003 rc5.d]# ls -l | grep oracle
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Mar 14 17:03 81oracle -> /etc/init.d/dbstart

    DBSTART script is located here:
    [root@PC003 init.d]# ls -l | grep dbstart
    -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4679 Mar 14 17:05 dbstart
    [root@PC003 init.d]# pwd
    /etc/init.d

    When Linux is booting, message STARTING ORACLE shows OK response, but Oracle is not started automatically. I checked everything I could (links, case sensitive, runlevels etc), except the DBSTART script (that I found in $ORACLE_HOME/bin) because I don't understand it so deeply. I'm using Oracle 8.1.6.0.0 Standard for Intel Linux.

    Could anyone help me?
