In all the docs I read for 10g (read: certification prep guides), shutdown abort is still treated like a leper. I'm pretty surprised by this thread so far. Don. On 6/27/07, Andrew Kerber <andrew.kerber@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
The last time I checked, admittedly in the 8.1.7 world, oracle stated that you could end up with file corruption on a shutdown abort (note that is could, not would, I never had it happen), If they have changed this and now say that a shutdown abort is as safe as a shutdown immediate, I have not heard it. Does anyone have a statement from oracle to that effect?
