About shell scripts for large-scale automation of  encoding tasks

in the user menu of Compressor, it said that we can use the command line to write shell scripts for large-scale automation of encoding tasks.
I would like to have more information about the shell script for compressor, is that any document link?
Thanks

You can use a script function to set-up a more secure environment that you call at the start of every admin script. This could be your main stamp album for stuff that can be moved there.
A few more stamps to add to the collection (be sure to read up on them before use):
1) reset the command hash
hash -r
2) prevent core dumps
ulimit -H -c0
3) set the IFS
4) clear all aliases  (see unalias -a)
Also you can remove the ALL from sudo and add explicit commands to the the sudoers file. There's a lot of fine tuning you can do in sudoers - inc. env variables as teekay said.
But I'm no expert so best to check all of the above.

  • Shell Script  for Startup and Shutdown the database

    Hi,
    i want Shell Script for Startup and Shutdown the database in Solaries.
    could any one can hep me where i can get this script. or send to me to [email protected]
    Thanks & Regards,

    SHUTDOWN
    SHUTDOWN ABORT]
    Shuts down a currently running Oracle instance, optionally closing and dismounting a database.
    Terms
    Refer to the following list for a description of each term or clause:
    ABORT
    Proceeds with the fastest possible shutdown of the database without waiting for calls to complete or users to disconnect.
    Uncommitted transactions are not rolled back. Client SQL statements currently being processed are terminated. All users currently connected to the database are implicitly disconnected and the next database startup will require instance recovery.
    You must use this option if a background process terminates abnormally.
    IMMEDIATE
    Does not wait for current calls to complete or users to disconnect from the database.
    Further connects are prohibited. The database is closed and dismounted. The instance is shutdown and no instance recovery is required on the next database startup.
    NORMAL
    NORMAL is the default option which waits for users to disconnect from the database.
    Further connects are prohibited. The database is closed and dismounted. The instance is shutdown and no instance recovery is required on the next database startup.
    TRANSACTIONAL [LOCAL]
    Performs a planned shutdown of an instance while allowing active transactions to complete first. It prevents clients from losing work without requiring all users to log off.
    No client can start a new transaction on this instance. Attempting to start a new transaction results in disconnection. After completion of all transactions, any client still connected to the instance is disconnected. Now the instance shuts down just as it would if a SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE statement was submitted. The next startup of the database will not require any instance recovery procedures.
    The LOCAL mode specifies a transactional shutdown on the local instance only, so that it only waits on local transactions to complete, not all transactions. This is useful, for example, for scheduled outage maintenance.
    Usage
    SHUTDOWN with no arguments is equivalent to SHUTDOWN NORMAL.
    You must be connected to a database as SYSOPER, or SYSDBA. You cannot connect via a multi-threaded server. For more information about connecting to a database, see the CONNECT command earlier in this chapter.

  • What design aids for large-scale application (using LV6i) exist?

    I have a large-scale application that includes analog and digital I/O, motion control, multiple temperature readings, Ethernet communication, RS-232, DDE and ActiveX controls for communicating with other commercial software. We have to improve the system performance and ease the pain of maintaining and upgrading. What aids are there for large-scale application design and development?

    This doesn't exactly count as development "tools" but I can send you copies of three papers that I found when I was just getting started with LV. They can show you how to think about your problem--and that is really the hardest (and most important) part.
    Contact me directly and I'll email them to you. The archive is to large to post.

  • Is it possible to pass a variable from a shell script back to an Automator action?

    Is it possible to pass a variable from a shell script back to an Automator action?
    For instance, if I assign a value of foo to $var1 in my shell script how would I retrieve/pass that value in the next Automator action. I see that there is a variable called "Shell Script" but I can't any information on how to use it. 

    red_menace,
    Thanks but I still don't understand how to pass a single value that was set in the UNIX scipt back to Automator has a variable. Take the example below, I write 4 varables to STDOUT and all 4 are stored in a variable named "storage".  How do I assign 1 of these values to the Automator "storage" variable? For instance if I wanted to assign the value of $var2 to "storage" , how would I do that?

  • Can anybody provide AIX shell script for Oracle Apps R12 instance backup

    Hi
    Can anybody provide AIX shell script for Oracle Apps R12 instance backup? Manually, i am able to backup but i donot have shell script to schedule through crontab.
    Help me please.
    Thanks

    Rman can be used for Database, not for Application tier. Again, I assumed you are looking for a script to backup the database. For the application tier, you can simply do a filesystem backup.
    I still do not understand your concern? Is it about using crontab? If so, then check here --> man crontab <--

  • Need Help in creating Unix Shell Script for database

    Would be appreciable if some one can help in creating unix shell script for the Oracle DB 10,11g.
    Here is the condition which i want to implement.
    1. Create shell script to create the database with 10GB TB SPACE and 3 groups of redo log file(Each 300MB).
    2. Increase size of redolog file.
    3. Load sample schema.
    4. dump the schema.
    5. Create empty db (Script should check if db already exists and drop it in this case).
    6. Create backup using rman.
    7. restore backup which you have backed up.

    This isn't much of a "code-sharing" site but a "knowledge-sharing" site.  Code posted me may be from a questioner who has a problem / issue / error with his code.   But we don't generally see people writing entire scripts as responses to such questions as yours.  There may be other sites where you can get coding done "for free".
    What you could do is to write some of the code and test it and, if and when it fails / errors, post it for members to make suggestions.
    But the expectation here is for you to write your own code.

  • Shell script for archive log transfer

    hi
    I dont want to reinvent the wheel.
    I am looking for shell script for log shipping to provide standby db.
    What I want to do is, get the last applied archived log number from alert.log
    Copy the files from archive destination according to this value.
    Cheers

    If you don't want to re-invent the wheel you use Dataguard, no scripts.
    And your script should use the dictionary, instead of some bs method to read the alert.
    v$archived_log has all information!
    Also as far as I know, the documentation describes manual standby.
    So apparently you not only don't want to reinvent the wheel, but you want the script on a silver plate on your doorstep!
    Typical attitude of most DBAs here. Use OTN for a permanent vacation.

  • Shell script for export backup in oracle 11g

    Hi,
    Oracle version 11.2.0..
    O/S-AIX
    How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g and also need to remove 2 days of old backup.
    Regards,
    Raju

    How to write shell script for export full backup in oracle 11g
    Do you mean that export is your backup strategy ? is your database running in noarchivelog mode ? if so, then why ? if not so, then why not RMAN ?
    need to remove 2 days of old backup.
    If that mean remove files older than 2 days, you can use something like this :
    $ find <absolute directory path> -mtime +2 -exec rm {} \;

  • Shell script for DB

    Hi,
    I have written shell script for below scenarios, can you please guide me to write this as correct way, requirment is,
    1. i need to connect the database which is on unix server , but before connecting the DB some of the files needs to be removed from \tmp directory.
    2. once removed the script need to connect the database and call the sql file which is in \tmp directory.
    3. the output files will be stored in \tmp directory start with DB name.
    4. finally csv files needs to be transferred to local windows with help of FTP. please find below the script
    #!/bin/sh
    rm -f /tmp/dbmon/DB1*
    CONNSTRING=username/PASSWORD@service
    sqlplus -s $CONNSTRING @/tmp/STATS.sql << EOF
    EXIT;

    Edited by: ASP on Nov 18, 2011 4:45 PM

    Hi ASP
    It's always a good idea to write entries to timestamped log file without which you will never know where the script went wrong or failed.
    This is not tested but just a small example
    #!/bin/sh
    export LOG_DIR=/tmp/log
    export LOGFILE=$LOG_DIR/`basename $0`_${TIMESTAMP}.log
    if [ ! -d $LOG_DIR ]
    then
         mkdir $LOG_DIR
    fi
    echo "Removing the temporary files from /tmp/dbmon at `date +%Y%m%d_%H:%M:%S`" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    rm -f /tmp/dbmon/DB1*
    CONNSTRING=username/PASSWORD@service
    echo "Run SQLPlus file" | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    sqlplus -s $CONNSTRING @/tmp/STATS.sql << EOF
    EXIT;
    EOF
    echo "Now FTP the files to windows box " | tee -a $LOG_FILE
    HOST='xxxxx'
    USER='xxxxx'
    PASSWD='xxxxxx'
    cd /tmp/dbmon
    ftp -vn $HOST <<EOF
    quote USER $USER
    quote PASS $PASSWD
    ascii
    cd E:\STATS
    mput DB1.*
    bye
    EOF

    Just buy 'Classic Shell Scripting' and 'the Unix Desktop Reference' both published by O'Reilly and you have it all.
