RE: Oracle on NT/2000 Service shutdown
As a side note - I have noticed with 8.1.7 on Win2K that sometimes the service literally shuts down as quick as the listener service! Never saw this happen until 8.1.7 (8.1.6 still took about 20 seconds). Has anybody else noticed this? Mark -Original Message- Daiminger Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 12:55 To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi! I found something interesting on the Windows 2000 FAQ site: Q. How can I increase the time that services have to shut down? A. By default, the OS allows services 20 seconds to stop before it forcefully halts them. For services that have a large amount of information in memory (e.g., Internet Security and Acceleration--ISA--Server 2000), 20 seconds might not be enough time. To increase the time the system allows, perform the following steps: 1. Start regedit.exe. 2. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control. 3. Double-click WaitToKillServiceTimeout. 4. Set this value to the desired wait time in milliseconds--6 is 1 minute. 5. Click OK. 6. Close regedit. 7. Reboot the machine. Note that this value applies to ALL services, so setting it to a longer interval might slow your computer's shut down: if a service doesn't shut down correctly, it will have a longer time before the OS halts it. This is certainly useful for all of us who use Oracle on Windows. hth, Helmut -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Helmut Daiminger INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

RE: Oracle on NT/2000 Service shutdown
Cann't it be that shutdown goes quickly and startup is slow? If I remember it well there is a possibility with Oracle 8.1.x(x=?) to set startup time for a database. This is to garantee startup time.

RE: Oracle on NT/2000 Service shutdown
I have not noticed this with Win 2000 but I have noticed it on HP. Granted the machine we are running it on is quicker then the one with 8.0.6 but it was very quick to fail over to the other server. Up and down quick. -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 3:40 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L As a side note - I have noticed with 8.1.7 on Win2K that sometimes the service literally shuts down as quick as the listener service!
