Oracle Shutdown immediate waiting on active process.

Hi,

Usually whenever we try to shutdown an oracle database with immediate option it will wait for some active process to get terminate. This may take long time and it also depends on the number of processes.

use below command to find out the active sessions on database:



bash-3.00$ ps -ef | grep LOCAL=NO
ora11g 17862 1 0 Jun 13 ? 0:00 oracletest (LOCAL=NO)
ora11g 17882 1 0 Jun 13 ? 0:00 oracletest (LOCAL=NO)

ora11g 17868 1 0 Jun 13 ? 0:00 oracletest (LOCAL=NO)
ora11g 17856 1 0 Jun 13 ? 0:00 oracletest (LOCAL=NO)



we need to kill the process only with option LOCAL=NO. The below is the handy UNIX command which can be used for killing these idle active session on database which are avoiding the database to shutdown with immediate option.




ps -ef|grep 'oracletest (LOCAL=NO)'|grep -v grep|awk '{print$2}'|xargs -i kill -9 {}



Now verify the processes again with ps -ef | grep LOCAL=NO it should not return any list.

If these processes killed then the database will shutdown.

Happy reading :)
