Peter,

You don't even get a line in your Alert log like the following, which is what I always get immediately after I issue a Shutdown Immediate?

ALTER DATABASE CLOSE NORMAL Perhaps 30sec. isn't enough time for your DB to do a Shutdown Immediate before the Oracle Service is stopped, which is equivalent to a Shutdown Abort?

Try increasing ORA_<sid>_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT and see what happens.

Environment:

	Oracle 8.1.7
	NT 4.0 sp 6

Registry parameters:

	ORA_<sid>_SHUTDOWN = "TRUE"
	ORA_<sid>_SHUTDOWN_TYPE="i"
	ORA_<sid>_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT="30"

When I stop the OracleService<sid>, the database appears to do a shutdown abort. No entries are made in the alert log to indicate that a clean shutdown occurred.

When I restart the service, the alert log contains messages like "Beginning crash recovery of 1 threads".

Any ideas what I have missed?

Thanks,
