Automated ESSCMD script for logout

This might sound like a weird question but I would like to know if it is possible to write an automated script in ESSCMD that logs out a specific user after loging out? We have done some @XREF functions in our trial db and for some reason the db leaves several connections open after logout. I know it would be wise to fix the problem with the script that causes the open connections, but until we figure out how to do that I would like to examine other possibilities to fix the problem. The Essbase version is 6.1.Any info regarding this matter will be very much appreciated.

Its default functions are things that users already do with the App. How this helps anyone is beyond me. The scripts appear to be suggestive in nature - just placeholders "for what the software could do". Yawn.
I need real world solutions not placeholder scripts. I cant believe Apple doesnt supply a solution - its simply obnoxious to ask users who have 5-100 mail folders to go:
1. select Mailbox
2. select Mailbox menu
3. choose Rebuild
Guess Im going to have to sit down with Automator or Applescript, bummer....

Automated Unix Script For Registering Artifacts In OER

Hi,
i want to create automated unix script which will register the artifacts automatically in Oracle Enterprise Repository (OER)
is it possible to automatically harvest the artifacts in OER.
please help

Some of what you want is possible. Take a look at the Count Tool in CS3/4. It may only be available in the Extended versions. That provides a
reasonable interface for marking items in a image like you are wanting to do with cells. Take a look at that and see what kind of manual process
you can get worked out.
However, to get the workflow you want (or anything close to it) would require more than a little code.

Run an Automator application / script at logout?

I think the answer here is very simple, but after several searches, I can't seem to find the specifice answer:
I've created a very simple Automator app as a backup utility for some of my clients: get specified finder items and copy finder items with "replace existing files" option turned on.
I'd like this application to run automatically every time the user logs out (after all user-launched apps have quit).
I'm guessing I could easily script it, but some of the references I've found are a bit old and I'm not sure if they still work. I'd need something that's a good step-by-step (ie for dummies) since command line scripting isn't one of my stronger points.
Too bad there's no longer the old "shutdown items" folder....
Thanks!

save your workflow as an ical plugin, this will automatically insert the workflow into ical,and create a workflow category for it, then just set to repeat every 5 minutes, or save as an APP and use a program called CRONIX (freeware) to run the schedule.

[Solved]Automating a script for a usb device on systemd?

Solution:See 3rd post by 65kid.
Ok I'm trying to learn how to automate the execution of a script I wrote to run whenever a specific usb device is plugged in. In this case a usb flash drive with a specific partition identified though UUID following the path /dev/disk/by-uuid/specified-partion's-uuid.
Basically the script uses rsync to update a snapshot of my system which I made bootable on this device. following the guide given in the wiki on full system backup using rsync I edited the --exclude options to ignore the contents of my /boot/ /etc/fstab and /etc/mkinitcpio.conf since the fstab entries, hooks array and initramfs and kernel images generated with them needed to be changed so as to make this snapshot bootable and adapted for use on the usb stick.
the ultimate goal is to have a bootable snapshot the can be updated with whatever changes have been made with my system(i.e. pacman -Syu updates,config changes etc...) while leaving out the important things needed to have the usb still bootable afterwards. I've already succeeded at getting the script to work but I have to mount it manually then execute the script myself and I know that it works afterwards as I can still boot from the stick afterwards.
This is not a question about rsync (which is why the script isn't posted here), to repeat myself, It's about how to execute ANY custom script whenever a specific device is plugged in. More specifically when a storage device with a certain uuid is detected after the device has been plugged in. I believe it may be different for running pure systemd and so that was the reasoning for having it mentioned in the subjects title(if I'm wrong then correct my understanding). If anything a few pointers on where to look would be appreciated. I've been googling and reading the wiki a bit with nothing specific on how to approach this. If an example of the script is requested I'll post it but it's not relevent to my question.
For a general veiw of my setup regarding external storage volumes I do not automount anything as I do not use all the things I plug in in the same manner. Some of the stuff I do requires them to be unmounted or mounted to different mount points(specified by me). The script handles the mounting part by itself just fine. The idea I have is to run it automatically when the flash drive is present. Any suggestions?

he is probably referring to this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 2#p1113682
imho this is way different, the SYSTEMD_WANTS tag is completely ok to use. yes, he may be mounting the drive from the script, but imho he is not "exploiting" anything here. I personally don't see a much more elegant way to do this.
these automount udev rules were however crappy and hackish. They were created by people who are like "but udisks is bloat!!1!" and whoever wrote them didn't really seem to know what he was doing because, for example, unmounting a device after it was unplugged from the system is completely non-sense.

Script for Automator to reorder text in file/folder name.

I have a folder full of pictures named by their first and last names. I need them to be renamed by listing them by last name first, first name last in order to get them alphabatized properly. Anybody out there have a nice Automator script for me to make this happen? I'm new.
Looking for it to look like this:
Brown, John

Try this (should work for "John H Smith" --> "Smith John H" as well):
The Run Shell Script Action is:
for f in "$@"
do
    basename=${f##*/}
    path=${f%/*}
    ext=${f##*.}
    name=${basename%.*}
    if [[ "$name" =~ \ ]]; then
        fname=${name% *}
        lname=${name##* }
        name="$lname $fname"
        mv "$f" "$path/$name.$ext"
    fi
done
If you want a comma, then change: name="$lname $fname" to name="$lname, $fname"
As with all scripts, back-up the files before running

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.

Spotlight automator script for dupes?

i suppose what i'm looking for is a script for spotlight that will identify duplicates on my hard drive with the exact same name and either delete them for me, or give me an easier way to delete them myself (besides weeding through each mp3 and deleting whatever comes up twice). i posted earlier about how when i migrated to my new computer last summer i inadvertantly made two copies of all my mp3s and i'd like to delete the duplicates.
any info would be greatly appreciated.

Test scripts for oracle applications using qtp testing tool

hi
i want some test scripts for oracle applications using qtp testing tool
regards

You will need to create separate scripts for Load testing. The functional scripts cannot be used in OLT. The exceptions to this would be the "General" items (Java Code Script & Web Services) which can also be used in OLT.
e.g. Instead of selecting "Functional Testing - Oracle EBS/Forms"
select "Load Testing (Protocol Automation) - Oracle EBS/Forms"
Once you get into load testing you'll realise that you want to create very specific scripts and won't want to try re-using functional scripts. I know a lot of such tools are 'sold' on the fact that functional scripts can be re-used for load, but when it comes down to it you'll want to design your load scripts seperately anyway!

Illy CS3 Automating a Script

This probably sounds redundant
over and over again , automating a script, but is there a way of assign
ing a keyboard shortcut
or run the
script in an action? I use mucho a script written and generously shared by JET to joinnearest points. It's a pain to have to click on file and then scripts and then select the script each time. I would like to eliminate 2 clicks (or mashes as they say in the southern states). Is there a way to do this within the script (adding a lline)?
Guidance will be appreciated.

This Action-Script bug has been present for several versions, at least
Correct. I have been complaining about this bug for four versions now.
It has become my practice to do this:
I keep an Action defined in my Actions palette named JET_CurrentScript. When it becomes clear to me that I will be repeatedly using a script in a work session, I go ahead and use InsertMenuItem to insert the step in that Action.
This is not a fix or even a workaround. It just lessens the tedium in certain circumstances. It becomes just as tedious, of course, if you have to do that for multiple frequently-needed scripts with every launch (you know--like having to reset your palette settings in Swatches, Doc Info, etc.)
Illustrator's script access interface--like too much in Illustrator--is half-baked. Sloppy. Rushed-to-market. Compare to InDesign's Scripts palette.
Now that ScriptUI provides for creation of floating dialogs (and supposedly modeless palettes--something else that's quite problematic with Illustrator's scripting implementation), one can combine several scripts into one dialog to handle multiple user inputs. I may get around to doing that with closely-related groups of my scripts, but am currently just getting acquainted with the rather tedious ScriptUI model.
There are ways to make a script run when the program is launched. So it may be conceivable to devise a startup script that would launch a script containing such a multi-purpose palette. But I haven't monkeyed around with that yet, because it would be dependent upon the afore-mentioned modeless dialog working correctly--you wouldn't want a modal dialog to appear whenever you launch the program.
I'm certainly no advanced Javascripter; I'm a self-motivated, self-trained "student" and "experimenter" when the mood strikes.
I'm gratified, by the way, that some of you seem to fiind my Join scripts handy. I consider the functionality indespensible in my own work, which is why I hacked them out. But it is absolutely absurd that one has to resort to custom scripting to do something that should so obvously be a standard function in the program.

Startup scripts for DB in one $OH and AS in another $OH

Hello, I am setting up Oracle Collaboration Suite 10g on a SLES9 SP3 machine. I have used the installers and followed the docs (so I ended up creating oracle users, setting kernel params, modifying limites, etc myself). I am now trying to figure out how to get this setup to start on boot. I found the orarun package but the Oracle Collaboration Suite (OCS) docs seem to recommend against this. I am willing to use it if it works, however. I have also looked at the ocsctl_sample script that is installed in the apps tier, but that doesn't seem to handle starting a db in a different $OH and can not be run by root. I wrote a wrapper to use "su oracle -c cmd" but that didn't work out either.
The setup I have is a database instance in one $ORACLE_HOME, and then the app server and apps in a separate $ORACLE_HOME (infrastructure/OID is on another server). Both of these $OH instances are listed in /etc/oratab of course. Since OCS handles mail it listens on privileged ports (25, 143, etc), so this listener may need to be started by root. I am thinking I only want one opmn instance, one apache instance, and one em instance on the system as well. I read through the init.d/oracle script from the orarun package and it seems like it only looks at the first $OH found in /etc/oratab if the /etc/profile.d/oracle.sh file is not found (I moved it out of the way as I have two scripts I use to set oracle environments depending on whether I'm working on the db or the as).
Has anyone either used orarun or developed other scripts for starting a db instance in one $OH and an app server in another? Any tips?
Thanks in advance,
Chris

Well, the issue is really multiple ORACLE_HOMEs. The single box install of OCS is two, in OCS 9i it was three. There is no problem with it, you just have to set the environment(mr obvious).
As far as having a single EM, you'll have two on your apps box. One for the apps, the other for the DB. Again, no problem because they are on different ports.
So, I guess the simplest explanation is just to write your own script. You can either create a sudoer for the mail listener, or set the setuid bit. There is a note on metalink for starting the mail listener as Oracle user.
The safest way would be to log in as root each time the mail listener needs started, it depends what you can tolerate. You will come across these very same issues if you setup the web cache etc. for reserved ports.
Another issue for automating the startup with your environment, is the fact that it is on two boxes. The processes need started in a particular order, the DB, Infra, then the apps. I don't have a good suggestion for that. You really should have put the DB and infra on one box, and the apps on another.

XMLImport Script for UNIX

This may be of interest of those who have automated deployment scripts that run on the application servers.

If you only want to do one file at a time and are looking for a way to "fill in the blanks" rather than knowing the command line syntax, you can use the UI. If an X session is available, the Forms Compiler will launch a GUI if no arguments are passed into it. For example: frmcmp.sh
The GUI will ask the user for the file, username, password, and all of the possible compiler options. Many of the options are check boxes.
If X is not available then just use the command line directly:
frmcmp_batch.sh module=/home/someuser/myforms/myapp.fmb compile_all=yes userid=scott/tiger@orcl
