Re: "Thou shalt use 'Shutdown Abort' whenever you shutdown the database." Makes sense?

- Sorry, I have to disagree here... :-)

Well, if you disagree... why do you use the KILL command then ? Your text means that you do not trust oracle shutdown command.... otherwise why to kill the unix process to assure a clean shutdown ? You would not do that with a RELIABLE shutdown immediate wouldn't you ?
