8. Create a Startup Script
In order for the Oracle server to start automatically at system boot time, create the file /etc/init.d/oracle like this:
#!/bin/bash
#
# Run-level Startup script for the Oracle Instance and Listener
#
# chkconfig: 345 91 19
# description: Startup/Shutdown Oracle listener and instance
ORA_HOME="/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0"
ORA_OWNR="oracle"
# if the executables do not exist -- display error
if [ ! -f $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart -o ! -d $ORA_HOME ]
then
echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
exit 1
fi
# depending on parameter -- startup, shutdown, restart
# of the instance and listener or usage display
case "$1" in
start)
# Oracle listener and instance startup
echo -n "Starting Oracle: "
su - $ORA_OWNR -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start"
su - $ORA_OWNR -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart
touch /var/lock/subsys/oracle
echo "OK"
;;
stop)
# Oracle listener and instance shutdown
echo -n "Shutdown Oracle: "
su - $ORA_OWNR -c "$ORA_HOME/bin/lsnrctl stop"
su - $ORA_OWNR -c $ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut
rm -f /var/lock/subsys/oracle
echo "OK"
;;
reload|restart)
$0 stop
$0 start
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 start|stop|restart|reload"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
|
Now run chkconfig oracle for updating the run level information.
Try service oracle start|stop|restart to check that everything works as expected now.
If you reached this step without errors: congratulations. Else, check Section 9 for troubleshooting suggestions.
