The strategy I prefer is doing database recovery in the start() function of the initscript (not restart though). -ensure the database is checkpointed (run db_checkpoint with appropriate options from and as the appropriate user from cron) Regards, Buchan -- Buchan Milne ISP Systems Specialist B.Eng,RHCE(803004789010797),LPIC-2(LPI000074592)
