I've now changed rhn-satellite not to start/stop Oracle XE, to align
it with its behaviour towards PostgreSQL (it does not start/stop
PostgreSQL server either) and also with the fact that you need to
setup and configure Oracle XE prior to Spacewalk installation anyway.

The change will be in spacewalk-admin-1.2.6-1.

On Satellite, the embedded database is still started/stopped by
/usr/sbin/rhn-satellite.
