public void Startup();

Exceptions

OracleException - The database startup request has failed.

Remarks

This method starts a database instance in the OracleDbStartupMode.Normal mode using the server-side parameter file (spfile). After the database is successfully started, this method also executes the ALTER DATABASE MOUNT and ALTER DATABASE OPEN statements.

This method does not throw exceptions for cases where the database is already mounted, opened, or started appropriately. If other errors are encountered, then an exception is thrown.
