Hi Tanel, I can't remember what is the correct procedure about auto startup Oracle. I think you are right is located in /var/opt/oracle (my clustering software does it for me by comfiguring this oratab) perhaps Jin can read the manual about startup and shutdown, I remember there is one small chapter special for this in DB Administration doc.
I read from Unix administration book long ago, the author said something like this replace the rm binary to something like this: cp rm .rm.original echo ".rm.original -i" > rm May be is not a good book, I don't know...

I don't remember that auto has been mentioned anywhere. I didn't find any occurrence it in dbstart either. So where is this coming from? And the OP is using Solaris, thus his oratab file is under /var/opt/oracle. > or simpler way replace your init binary file with your own > for example Yeah right, lets just modify kernel binary instead!? Do you really do this kind of stuff at your work? Really spooky...
