Re: Script to kill all user sessions before shutdown immediate

You could write a PL/SQL stored subprogram to SELECT sid, serial# FROM V$SESSION for all logged on users besides SYS (who's doing the killing), then execute a dynamic SQL statement ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION for each sid, serial# found.

Give me a day and I'll write it and post it here, since it's something folks could use.
