Not everyone does. We start Oracle as one of the last things started. For us, we always start it in the highest level the box is brought up to. Then we know everything else is up before we try to bring the databases up.

Subject: RE: Unix level to start Oracle
Is there a reason why everyone starts oracle at run level 2 and not 3?

Stephane,
In /etc/rc2.d, Oracle suggest you to put the start script with the largest number like "S99ora". As most of the script to start up the server and its required daemon are started with smaller number (like "S10xxx"), the startup of Oracle will still be the last one among that list of files to be started up.
To put it into rc2.d just ensure that the database will start even the server is startup in level 2.

In my previous job we have all instances to start at level 2. We was working with Oracle 7.3 and HP-UX10.10 or 10.20.
