Windows shutdown

edited Sep 21, 2020 8:12AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 11 commentsAnswered

We are interested in scripting Windows patching. I have read that ORA_SID_SHUTDOWN and ORA_SID_SHUTDOWNTYPE registry settings, will dictate how the database will be shutdown via services (OracleServiceSID). When Windows is shutdown, should it use the settings? Or are we better to use 'net shutdown  OracleServiceSID'? I found this thread 2013 - and want to confirm it is still valid.

From my testing, it does appear that net shutdown does a clean shutdown. I considered oradim -shutdown -sid MYSID -shutttype SRVC,INST, but I am not able to use NTS authentication or store the sys password.

Thanks
