Oracle 7.3.4.4 on AIX -- Why doesn't the listener process startup on a system reboot using the following call from /etc/inittab to the following script dbora? The 'stop' stanza works fine. The 'start' stanza starts the databases but not the listener. It's as if some oracle process needs to be running before the call to lsnrctl happens. Any ideas?

inittab entry:
oracle:2:wait:/bin/su oracle -c "/.../.../dbora start"

dbora script:
#!/bin/sh
if [ ! -f ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/dbstart -o ! -d ${ORACLE_HOME} ]

        then
                echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
                exit
        fi

#
case "$1" in

        'start')        #Start the Oracle Databases


                ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/dbstart

                wait;sync;sync;sync;sleep 10


                ${ORA_HOME}/bin/lsnrctl start

                wait;sync;sync;sync;sleep 10
                ;;
        'stop')


                ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/lsnrctl stop

                wait;sync;sync;sync;sleep 10


                ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/dbshut

                wait;sync;sync;sync;sleep 10
                ;;
