Oracle Startup Script

$ su - oracle
$ lsnrctl start
$ dbstart



Copy script to /etc/init.d directory:

# cp /tmp/oracle /etc/init.d/oracle

Create a soft link (Run level 3):

# cd /etc/rc3.d/
# ln -s ../init.d/oracle S100oracle
# ln -s ../init.d/oracle K100oracle

Alternatively use chkconfig command to add script:

# chkconfig –add oracle
# chkconfig –list oracle

Please note that you can just use script directly, to start Oracle type command:

# /etc/init.d/oracle start

To stop Oracle type command:

# /etc/init.d/oracle stop
