Thanks to everyone who replied both on and off list. I've gone down the roll
my own route which is remarkably similar to this off list suggestion
received today.
I have written my own "super-dbstart" script, using a sort of "extended

The extended oratab has gone in /etc/sysconfig which is a small abuse of the
purpose of that directory but I think a justifiable one.
