一数据库服务器执行shutdown immediate时，遇到了下面ORA错误，如下所示：
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production on Fri Aug 5 10:56:24 2016
Copyright (c) 1982, 2007, Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
Connected to:
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production
SQL> shutdown immediate;
ORA-03113: end-of-file on communication channel
SQL> exit
检查告警日志，发现其一直停留在"Job queue slave processes stopped".退出sqlplus然后重新登录，重新执行shutdown immediate
$ sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production on Fri Aug 5 11:03:45 2016
Copyright (c) 1982, 2007, Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
ORA-24324: service handle not initialized
ORA-24323: value not allowed
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
SQL>
后面退出会话，然后登陆sqlplus，使用shutdown abort 才将数据库关闭。处理完成后，查了一下metal link官方文档，发现引起错误的原因为：
Background processes are hanging/not started correctly during the previous startup of this database.
Hence the semaphores and shared memory segments are not getting detached properly now during shutdown.
以后遇到这个问题，可以使用下面步骤处理：
1. Verify that there are no background processes owned by "oracle" , if there are kill them
$ ps -ef | grep ora_ | grep $ORACLE_SID
2. Remove shared memory and semaphores:
A) Check for shared memory and semaphores
$ ipcs -mt (if there is anything owned by oracle remove it)
$ ipcrm -m [ID] (to remove it)
B) Check and remove semaphores
$ ipcs -sbt (if there is anything owned by oracle remove it)
$ ipcrm -s [ID] (to remove it)
C) Remove sga and lk file
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/dbs
$ rm sgadef
$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/lk
D) If database is down, try to bring up oracle one step at a time:
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> startup nomount pfile = ...[path]
SQL> alter database mount;
SQL> alter database open;\
Otherwise, exit current SQL*Plus session and verify the following environment variables are set.
echo $ORACLE_HOME
echo $ORACLE_SID (echo %ORACLE_SID% on Windows)
Then, Execute the following:
sqlplus / as sysdba
shutdown abort
exit
sqlplus / as sysdba
startup
如上官方资料所示， 两种解决方案。关于第一种方案，简单梳理如下：
1： 清理后台进程，一般找到相关进程后，使用kill命令杀掉。
2： 清理共享内存段
3： 清理信号集
注意，在RHEL 中， ipcs -sbt命令会报错"ipcs: invalid option -- b",这个是因为Linux上的ipcs命令，不支持UNIX上的-b，所以不能照本宣科，不要使用参数b. 具体参考官方文档ipcs man page describes invalid -b option in RHEL 5
4: 删除 sga and lk文件。
ipcs相关资料：
ipcs 命令往标准输出写入一些关于活动进程间通信设施的信息。如果没有指定任何标志，ipcs 命令用简短格式写入一些关于当前活动消息队列、共享内存段、信号量、远程队列和本地队列标题。
