Have who ever is in charge to hire somebody who is a competent Oracle DBA.

You could try the following from a terminal/command prompt while logged into/onto the OS (which name & version?) as the Oracle user:
sqlplus
/ as sysdba
shutdown abort
startup
exit


Use CUT & PASTE to provide whole session above & use <code tags>
as explained in the #1 STICKY post found at the very TOP of this forum.

Hello Friend,

Shudown proccess is not killed. I think its on loop.
Can't you reboot the system.
I think it should be okay after rebooting

Thank you
