Consider these points:
- When possible, we always gracefully shutdown the applications
connected to a production database before shutting the database down
itself.
Couldn't you do the same? Often this is a matter of getting the apps
support people involved. If they don't have procedures for such a
graceful shutdown, it is imperative they be developed! This is
especially true for Oracle apps.
- I have seen where a SHUTDOWN ABORT operation causes the subsequent
recovery required by the STARTUP to take just as long as the SHUTDOWN
IMMEDIATE. I do believe this is a 10g bug, and it should be vigorously
followed up with Oracle if you are encountering it and the above does
not resolve the issue.
