As part of Solution Manager installation, I have installed Oracle on Linux SLES 10. Installation of Oracle seems to be fine as I was able to execute the following:
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> select version from v$instance;
#####
Next, I stopped Oracle DB and installed the patches. I stopped using the commands (at the shell prompt):
> lsnrctl stop
> dbshut
After installing the patches, when i want to restart Oracle DB, I get the following error:
sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.

ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
####
Oracle documentation on ORA-01092 give the following info:
Cause: The instance this process was connected to was terminated abnormally, probably via a shutdown abort. This process was forced to disconnect from the instance.
Action: Examine the alert log for more details. When the instance has been restarted, retry action.
Any help to fix this problem is appreciated
Thanks,
