To autostart database or not?
We are running a few Oracle9i and 10g databases on RHEL and I have always opted NOT to have the databases automatically restart when the server goes down due to something unexpected. My thinking was that if the server crashed, then I want to be there to bring up the databases to assess and repair any damage (yes, I am the only production DBA).
Am I being overly controlling? Looking for other opinions and thoughts on the matter. 

Thanks
