RE: NT Scheduled Restart
Hi, I also use this to reboot a server (not our Oracle one though) but beware of the /C switch - this may not do a clean shutdown of your applications / Oracle. From the help on NT4: C Forces running applications to close. ATTENTION: If you use the /C parameter NT ignores the applications option to save data which may have changed. You will see no File-Save dialog box, because NT will force the application to close. This will result in a loss of all data. not previously saved !!! This definitely results in SQL Server getting upset. That said, why do you need to reboot - for example our NT Oracle server (81511, NT 4 SP6a) has been up for 238 days?

RE: NT Scheduled Restart
Bruce, What I tend to do is not shutdown the Oracle database using the shutdown.exe. I execute a script fortnightly that first shuts down Oracle then calls the shutdown.exe to shutdown the box. In this way the database is down before the shutdown.exe executes. Similarly you can write a script to shutdown any application/db before kicking off shutdown.exe thus preventing any abnormal shutdown. Luckily we use MKS Toolkit, I can write korn shell quite easily to do these routine tasks.
