STARTUP and SHUTDOWN CDB AND PDB

STARTUP/SHUTDOWN CDB AND PDB

In this blog, We will see how to start and shutdwn container and pluggable database in 19C. Startup and shutdown is the responsibility of oracle dba.

HOW TO STARTUP/SHUTDOWN CDB AND PDB ON LINUX

1. Startup CDB

[oracle@localhost ~]$ cat /etc/oratab | grep -i CDB2
CDB2:/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0.1:N
[oracle@localhost ~]$
[oracle@localhost ~]$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [CDB2] ?
The Oracle base remains unchanged with value /u01/app/oracle
[oracle@localhost ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba

SQL*Plus: Release 12.2.0.1.0 Production on Sun Jul 15 17:30:11 2018

PLEASE DO NOT run SHUT IMMEDIATE OR ALTER DATABASE CLOSE command from CDB, it will shutdown ALL PDBs,PDB$SEED & CDB$ROOT inside CDB.

Example for the same below

SQL> select name,open_mode,con_id,dbid from v$containers;
