Title: HELP! CAN't STARTUP REMOTE DATABASE USING SQL*PLUS - BUG?-NADA on METASTINK
Hello
 
I noticed that your sqlplus logon connects to an idle instance.
That's mean that you are NOT connected to the remote database.
You need to set oracle_sid or use connect system/password@database.
 
Also why not do shutdown immediate instead of abort?

Guys

Trying to automate rman cold backups using sql*plus versus svrmgrl.  RMAN is local and target databases are remote. 
Executing the following (just from a script seems to work just fine interactively):

         $ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus  /nolog <<-EOD                            
         connect system/password;                                             
         @tst2.sql;                                                         
         shutdown abort                                                     
         @tst2.sql;                                                                                                      

         startup  pfile=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/init$DBNAME.ora;                   
         spool $STATUSFILE                                                  
         select status from v\$instance where status = 'MOUNTED';           
         spool off                                                          
         EOD
