Not exactly.

Someone else has already pointed out that registry entries can be created to gracefully shutdown the database: Doc ID 136214.1

If these are not setup properly, then stopping the services without first shutting down the database is actually harsher than a shutdown abort.

This is also detailed somewhere on MetaLink, but I don't have the doc #.

If you stop the service you perform shutdown abort which is not recommended for cold backup.

Joe,

You can stop the services, which should shutdown the database (for cold backup).

But, that's not the only option. You can leave services running, and just shutdown the database (using svrmgrl, or sqlplus), and then do the cold backup.

My partner sent me a question about services on windows.

when doing a cold backup is it necessary to shutdown the windows services?, I have no idea as I've not had the nightmare of dealing with oracle on windoze.
