shutdown gracefully oracle database using oracle-database-operator

[gserpentino]

Hello all,
I have a simple question about the oracle-database-operator.
I have up & running a test oracle database under kubernetes.
The only way I know actually to stop/shutdown the database gracefully is to login into pod and execute
the classic shutdown from sqlplus.
I woluld like to know if there is a way to shutdown gracefully using the oracle-database-operator.

I have the same "issue" with oraclerestdataservice.
I tried to patch is with replicas: 0 but with no luck.

Many thank to who can help me.

I found this documentation about shutdown and startup:

Note:
Maintence shutdown/startup can be executed using the scripts /home/oracle/shutDown.sh and /home/oracle/startUp.sh

Another "issue" that it is not clear to me is when a worker node became unavailable. The pod switch into the other node but for example, this morning it dowsn'e start due to following error:

SQL> ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> ORACLE instance started.
