Uh huh.

The command you issued sounds to me like a SAP command, not an Oracle one. And although you say it "does a shutdown", what sort of shutdown does it do? What's to stop "stopsap" from issuing a "shutdown abort" under the hood?

So your question is spot on. It's the assumption that your database *was* shutdown cleanly that I'd question.
