I haven't used or thought about these scripts since version 7.0, until one day last year.  

Another DBA at our shop had written a script called "startdb", which starts up your current ORACLE_SID. So, thinking I'd be efficient and save maybe 10 -15 keystokes in starting a database, I type "dbstart".  

D'oh!! :P  

That script shutdown every instance on the box (6-8 of em'). Luckily it was dev...

	You have listed the reasons why many folks 
	don't use the supplied oraenv scripts. 
	
	It has long been necessary to modify the dbshut and 
	dbstart scripts as well, if you use them, as they have 
	in the past not worked so well. 
	
	Been awhile since I've even used them, so they may 
	have improved while I wasn't looking.

	Guys,
	
	I setup lsnrstart....stop scripts for root that does the su -c
to oracle and runs them. I could run as oracle successfully but using the su - c command brought me this error:         

        "Oracle ld.so.1: /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/lsnrctl: fatal: libclntsh.so.9.0: open failed: No such file or directory

        /usr/oracle/tools/bin/lsnrstart[12]: 398 Killed"         

        I quickly verified that the file libclntsh.so.0.0 existed. Therefore, I felt that it might have something to do with relinking.         

        I tried relinking after shutting everything down and got the same type of ld.so.1 error. Then with my experience I realized that this usually related to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I looked up relinking and found a note that states this:         

        Doc ID: Note:131321.1         

	The note says:
	Oracle 9.X.X (64Bit) on Solaris (64Bit) OS 
	- Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32 
	- Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64=$ORACLE_HOME/lib 
	
	I did this and it worked.
	
	I then verified that Oracle's environmental scripts

(out-of-the-box) set LD_LIBRARY_PATH as I have always used these
environment scripts. However, they do not set the path as listed above. In fact, the environment variable will overwrite LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the wrong setting.         

        So, do I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH as above, I am a little confused since the environment script and this note do not match as to which setting is correct. For relinking I definitely know only the one above will work!!!!!! GRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!         

	Any opinions?
