These scripts are already provided by Oracle. They will startup and shutdown all the instances listed in /etc/oratab. The files are dbstart and dbshut located in $ORACLE_HOME/bin
If you want to use them for when your system starts / stops just put a file in the startup/shutdown directory to run the files. Don't forget they must be run by Oracle
