Actually, speaking of Oracle, and startup scripts, anyone know what
the correct runlevel is to start Oracle - 1? 2? 3?

Um, whichever runlevel you're running in? There is no right or wrong.
I may very well be wrong, but I believe Red Hat defaults to
runlevel 5. For my servers, I always either 1) change this
to runlevel 3, or
2) disable the startup of X11 in the default runlevel. A
quick check shows a number of my servers at runlevel 3.

If you want Oracle to startup automatically after the server
boots up, you'll want to enable startup for whatever your
default runlevel is (which can be found in /etc/inittab).



I've always used run-levels as the following:

1: single-user
2: multi-user (stand-alone)
3: multi-user (networked)
5: X applications

I've actually never used 4 myself, but I guess somebody can customize it to
a combination of 3 and 5.

So I guess oracle can be used anywhere from 2 to 5 but I usually set it to
345 since I consider runlevel 3 the first server level. Runlevel 2 was the
standard (and topmost) runlevel 20 years ago when things like NFS were not
prevalent.

DISCLAIMER: I am no longer an IT professional and would defer to the current
professionals on the list.

That's my take,
Michael
