Commonly used srvctl commands
What is srvctl? it is the Server Control Utility, we use SRVCTL to start and stop the
database and instances, manage configuration information, and to add, move or
remove instances and services.
These are some of the srvctl commands I frequently use, this is not a complete
reference guide.
I organized the commands as follow:
To start a rac database
To stop a rac database
To check status and configurations
To start and stop instances
To start, stop and manage services
Start a rac database (order: nodeapps – asm – database)
srvctl start nodeapps -n nodename
srvctl start asm -n nodename
srvctl start database -d dbname
options are: srvctl start database -d dbname -o open | -o mount | -o nomount
Stop a rac database (order: database – asm – nodeapps)
srvctl stop database -d dbname -o immediate
options are: srvctl stop database -d dbname -o normal | -o transactional | -o
immediate | -o abort
srvctl stop asm -n nodename
options are: srvctl stop asm -n nodename -o immediate
srvctl stop nodeapps -n nodename
To check status and configurations
Nodeapps:
srvctl status nodeapps -n nodename
srvctl config nodeapps -n nodename
ASM:
srvctl status asm -n nodename
srvctl config asm -n nodename
Database:
srvctl status database -d dbname
srvctl config database -d dbname (shows instances name, node and oracle
home)
Instance:
srvctl status instance -d dbname -i instancename
Services:
srvctl status service -d dbname
To start and stop instances
srvctl start instance -d dbname -i instancename
srvctl stop instance -d dbname -i instancename
To start, stop and manage services
srvctl status service -d dbname
srvctl config service -d dbname
srvctl start service -d dbname -s servicename
srvctl stop service -d dbname -s servicename
srvctl relocate service -d dbname -s servicename -i instancename -t
newinstancename [-f]

Excellent article. Thanks a lot for sharing. Kindly show difference

Hi,
Thanks for your comment, right now I don’t have plans for an article
about the differences between the versions, but I can tell you that
srvctl in both 10g and 11g are very similar. You can find at the end
of the post the links with the official documentation for both
versions. Good luck.
