You can use this SAPDBA command with the Oracle database to check whether the database system has already been started. You can display the return code by using the command for checking the final state of the last command performed (for example echo $status for the C shell).

Recommendation

We strongly recommend you to use the BRCONNECT equivalent function -f dbstate instead of this SAPDBA command. The reason is that we will in future no longer develop the SAPDBA functions, whereas BRCONNECT functions will always be fully up-to-date.
