Auto startup and shutdown oracle database services on linux



Auto startup and shutdown oracle database services on linux


Applies to:
            Enterprise Linux – Version: 5
           
Description:
            I have oracle database 11gR2 on enterprise Linux 5.7. I want that all database services and listener should be stopped automatically when Linux going to shutdown. And after startup Linux all database services and listener start automatically.

Solution:
            To auto startup and shutdown all database services:


  •   Following parameter in /etc/oratab file should be Y:

orcl:/d01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1:Y


  •  Set the following parameter in $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart :

          ORACLE_HOME=/d01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1;
          export ORACLE_HOME
          ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=$ORACLE_HOME

  • Set the following parameter in $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut :
         ORACLE_HOME=/d01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1;
         export ORACLE_HOME
         ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=$ORACLE_HOME

  • Create a file “dbora” in /etc/init.d/ using root user
         Contents of dbora file is:

#!/bin/sh
# description: Oracle database auto start-stop script.
#
ORA_HOME=/d01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=$ORA_HOME
ORA_OWNER=oracle
if [ ! -f $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart ]
then
    echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
    exit
fi
case "$1" in
'start')
# Start the Oracle Database Instance Using the Script Created by Rana Abdul Wahid:
# The following command assumes that the oracle login
# will not prompt the user for any values
su $ORA_OWNER -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart $ORACLE_HOME &
touch /var/lock/subsys/dbora
;;
'stop')
# Stop the Oracle Database Instance Using the Script Created by Rana Abdul Wahid:
# The following command assumes that the oracle login
# will not prompt the user for any values
su $ORA_OWNER -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut $ORACLE_HOME
rm -f /var/lock/subsys/dbora
;;
esac

  • Save the above file
  • chmod 750 /etc/init.d/dbora
  • chkconfig --add dbora

Now each time all database services shutdown normally when Linux shutdown. When Linux startup all database services automatically startup normally.


Your comments, especially which will help us improve the functionality, will be greatly appreciated. :)
