It seems to me that your problems with dbstart/dbshut can be caused by not including your database in /etc/oratab (maybe /var/opt/oracle/oratab). There should be inside line like this:

MYSID:/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6:N

where first is SID of your DB, second its respective ORACLE_HOME and the last one is a flag if that database should be brought up at system boot time.

With regards
