Depending on your linux distribution the rc.config might not be the
best place. If you're not going to create
/etc/rc.d/init.d/oracle
and symlinks
/etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99oracle -> /etc/rc.d/init.d/oracle
/etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99oracle -> /etc/rc.d/init.d/oracle
(again depending on your distribution; this example is from red hat)
the "correct" place for local startup commands might be at
/etc/rc.d/rc.local
but here's an example how the /etc/rc.d/init.d/oracle might look like
(oracle database owner user account here is "oracle8"):
-------snip----snap----------------
#!/bin/sh
ORACLE_HOME=/the/oracle/home/dir
case "$1" in
start)
# insert after this comment necessary kernel parameter stuff or
# whatever you want to be run at startup
/sbin/su - oracle8 -c $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start >> /tmp/orastartup.log 2>&1
/sbin/su - oracle8 -c $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart >> /tmp/orastartup.log 2>&1
;;
stop)
/sbin/su - oracle8 -c $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl stop >> /tmp/orastartup.log 2>&1
/sbin/su - oracle8 -c $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut >> /tmp/orastartup.log 2>&1
;;
*)
echo Usage: $0 'start|stop'
exit 1
esac
exit
