> So why don't you state the actual time it takes to "come up"?
I can't because I don't know. The DBA's have been very difficult about sharing the information. It took several emails and a meeting before we even found out the fact that the 10GB SGA DB didn't start up "quick enough". We also honestly don't know how long they waited before the next attempt where the database came up successfully. > What is "magic" about 2 minutes? This could be a number they picked out of the air, but it may actually be a legitimate timing Oracle uses to determine whether it is coming up cleanly or not--I have no idea. Since I provided a summary of the information I got here together with what I already knew, my offer to sit down with them and redo the testing has generated a big silence. Like I stated before, I think this is mostly an exercise in training and managing expectations, not a real "problem". I've been far too busy while at work to push the matter past their current silence. (This account is my personal involvement with OpenSolaris, and I'm answering a lot of these responses from home.) I posted my original question at the request of my Team Lead in the hopes of filling in and clarifying some of the information I've read. The comments in this thread have been helpful in doing that. Thanks again to everyone.
