RE: Query Database while shutdown in progress

Or in 10g you just do an alter database end backup... So, if that
possibility exists make your startup script:

startup mount;
alter database end backup;
alter database open;

Viola, no problems!!

    What happens if you have datafiles in backup mode and you try and do a
startup force?


  select
          'alter database datafile ' || '''' || f.name || '''' || ' end
backup;'
  from v$datafile f, v$backup b
  where b.status = 'ACTIVE'
  and f.file# = b.file#
  /

  run the generated SQL.
