Generate RMAN backup Script using unix shell script

Hello,
Could somebody give me a unix shell script that would generate RMAN script based on some user defined parameters in a config file.
e.g.
rman.conf
CHANNELS=4
USE_CATALOG=Y
DEVICE='sbt_tabe'
etc.,
many thanks,
kam

You can actually encapsulate the RMAN commands inside the shell script.
However if you really want to create a seperate RMAN script file, you can use the unix shell's "echo" command to write set variables to a file.
Thus, for example,
echo "rman target / catalog rman/rmanpassword@crcat" > RMAN_Script.rmn
echo "backup database plus archivelog" >> RMAN_Script.rmn
echo "backup archivelog all" >> RMAN_Script.rmn
creates RMAN_Script.rmn with 3 commands.

Running report in concurrent manager using unix shell script to create PDF

Hi,
I need help urgently, we are in the process of migrating from 10.7 to 11i. My problem is we have a report created in 10.7 that is ran through concurrent manager using shell scripts(host) and the output is stored as .pdf, in 10.7, it works perfectly. Now I am also doing it in 11i but it gives some error. The shell script from 10.7 is: r25runm module=$XXX_TOP/srw/test.rdf \
userid=$1 batch=yes \
desformat=pdf destype=file \
desname=$XXX_TOP/outbound/test.pdf
I change the shell script in 11i as follows:
ar60runb report=$XXX_TOP/reports/US/test.rdf \
userid=$1 batch=yes \
desformat=pdf destype=file \
desname=$XXX_TOP/outbound/test.pdf
I checked your metalink, and I am confused which is the right executable I should use, is it ar60runb or ar60run or rwrun60b or rwrun60c or rwrun60b, which is which? how many parameters do I have to include?, some documents are saying I have to use the 4 parameters-orauser/pwd, userid,username, request_id, others one.Which parameter/s go/es with what executable. We are using HP-UX server 64 bit. In 11i, when I run in concurrent manager it gives me an error:The executable file /chdev/fd11/u00/fd11appl/xxx/1.0/bin/test for this concurrent program cannot be executed.
Contact your system administrator or support representative. Verify that the execution path to the executable file is co.
I have checked Metalink and follow the directions, created a link fndcpesr, check and set the permissions, etc. Play around with the executables ar60runb or rwrun60 etc., the parameters. The ar60* or rwrun60* executable permissions are -rwxr-xr-x and $XXX_TOP/fnd/../fndcpesr is -rwxr-xr-x. Also, why is ar60* executables located in $FND_TOP/bin, whereas rwrun60* executables are in $ORACLE_HOME/bin? Please help, I need an answer urgently ,I have to complete this task before Tuesday 9/16/2003 for our migration deadline. Thank you very much.

I have already fixed the problem, TY anyway

Reg: UNIX shell script at File Adapter

Hi all,
I am doing a File to file scenario and using command line arguments in Sending file adapter. I am using UNIX shell script ".sh" file for executing the command.
I gave the following path at "Run OS command before message processing" parameter:
/temp/xidelivery/send/FILOSC004_shell.sh
and this file contains following code:
<b>#!/user/bin/sh cp /temp/xidelivery/send/FILOSC004_in.txt /temp/xidelivery/send/FILOSC004_input_copy4.txt</b>
I put the source file, FILOSC004_in.txt and shell script files at the respective paths.
If I give "cp" command directly in command line it is working fine. But I could not execute this with shell script. Can any body give me the reason where I gone wrong.
Regards,
Pavani.

Hi,
can you try this,
bash /temp/xidelivery/send/FILOSC004_shell.sh
let me know.
hey you can check the blog below to catch the OS errors,

PL/SQL function - unix shell script

Hello,
I have an application that calls a unix shell script This unix shell script calls a oracle function in the PL/SQL package. For example,
In package pkg_test, there is function f_test. This function returns pls_interger.
How can I write a unix shell script to return the value from the oracle function, so that the application can get the value from the unix shell script?
Many thanks.

Thank you for your response.
The Oracle functuion pkg_name.proc_name will return different values, 0, 1, 2, 3 in diffefrent conditions.
The unix script, myscript.ksh calls pkg_name.proc_name.
The other application will call myscript.ksh and this application will need to get the values 0, 1, 2, 3 from myscript.ksh.
Can we make it without using the unix shelll function?
Thanks.

the db capacity is around 12 Tb
wen the backup is done i need to zip it too.at this moment i dont want to copy to the disk.
kindly help me regarding this
thanks in advance

i used something like this until recently:
#!/bin/bash
umask 0077
export ORACLE_HOME="/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/webdb1"
export PATH="$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH"
export NLS_LANG="AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1"

pipe="export.pipe"
file="$db-`date "+%Y-%m-%d"`.dmp"
if [ ! -p $pipe ]; then
## could exist but not be a pipe
rm -f $pipe
mknod $pipe p || (echo "could not create pipe $pipe"; exit 1)
fi
gzip -c > $file.gz < $pipe &
exp system/****@$db FULL=Y CONSISTENT=Y FILE=$pipe DIRECT=Y GRANTS=Y
you could of course also use zip|bzip2|pbzip2 or whatever.

Schedule workbook using with Unix shell script

Hi,
Can we schedule workbook using with Unix shell script?
Thanks,
Jay

I can't imagine how.
1. You can schedule Disco workbooks via Disco itself.
2. You can schedule Disco workbooks to run and output in different file formats automatically via batch scheduler in Windows running Disco Desktop directly (or can user VBasic).
3. You can schedule Disco workbooks to run and output in different file formats automatically via a Java program running the Java Command Line interface.
Moving forward, Oracle has announced that with a further interfacing of Disco with XML Publisher, you'll be able to use Oracle Apps concurrent manager and scheduling. But that's coming supposedly at the end of this year.
And I think that's about it.

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.

Calling a report from unix shell script

Hi,
I had to call a report from unix shell script.
May i know the procedure to accomplish this
Thanks in Advance
A.Gopal

First you should not include the whole path to your report in the call ...
Use like this:
/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/bin/rwrun.sh report=an_stati destype=file desname=/ora/u01/oracle/v101/as2/test.pdf desformat=pdf
In $ORACLE_HOME/bin/reports.sh:
1) Verify that you have updated the REPORTS_PATH variable to include your folder where you have the report in question
REPORTS_PATH=/ora/u20/app/qits/env1/run:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/templates:$ORACLE_HOME/reports/samples/demo: ....
2) Verify that the REPORTS_TMP variable is pointing to a valid location and that the oracle user has access to write on it.
After that, post the content of the tracefile located at $ORACLE_HOME/reports/logs/{in-process report server name folder}/rwserver.trc
If no file is present then it means that you need to enable trace in your reports's conf file.... go to the $ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf folder and and locate the .conf file that correspond to your in-process reports server name (as specified in the rwservelet.properties file)... open/edit the file to enable trace logs ..
i.e.
Change the following line:

to <trace traceOpts="trace_all"/>
Bounce the reports server and try to run the report again, this time the .trc file should be generated, post the content so that we can take a look.

Error while executing unix shell script from java program

Hi All,
I am trying to execute unix shell script from a java program using Runtime.execute() method by passing script name and additional arguments.
Code snippet :
Java Class :
try{
     String fileName ="test.ksh";
     String argValue ="satish"; // value passed to the script
     String exeParam = "/usr/bin/ksh "+fileName+" "+argValue;
     Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeParam);
     int exitValue = proc.waitFor();
     sop("Exit Value is : "+exitValue);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
}Test.ksh
export -- application realated paths..
nohup abc.exe 1> test.log 2>&1;
$1
exit.By running the above java class , i am getting exit Value: 139 and log file test.log of 0 bytes.
when i am running the same command (/usr/bin/ksh test.ksh satish) manually, it's calling abc.exe file successfully
and able generate the logs properly.
Pls let us know where exactly i am stuck..
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Satish

Hi Sabre,
As per the guidelines provided by the article, i had done below changes..
InputStream is = null;
InputStreamReader iStreamReader = null;
BufferedReader bReader = null;
String line = null;
try{
String fileName ="test.ksh";
String argValue ="satish"; // value passed to the script
String exeParam = "/usr/bin/ksh "+fileName+" "+argValue;
Process proc = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(exeParam);
is = proc.getErrorStream();
iStreamReader = new InputStreamReader(is);
bReader = new BufferedReader(iStreamReader);
System.out.println("<ERROR>");
while((line = bReader.readLine()) != null)
System.out.println("Error is : "+line);
System.out.println("</ERROR>");
int exitValue = proc.waitFor();
sop("Exit Value is : "+exitValue);
catch(Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();
Now , it's showing something like..
<ERROR>
</ERROR>

Call a UNIX shell script from an oracle stored procedure

We need to call a UNIX shell script from an oracle stored procedure
i.e. the control should come back to the procedure once the script completes. Can any body help to achieve this ?

There are various ways in achieving this.
For Example, you can call a PRO*C-Library residing on the database server.
This requires a PL/SQL library to be generated and some changes to the Listener configuration.
It is also possible to implement a java procedure on the database being invoked by a PL/SQL wrapper class.
In this way (and if used right) there is also granularity regarding the filestructure permissions given and it may be called during a Forms or other PL/SQL session.
The article below explains a more generic approach how to invoke shell commands from within an Oracle Instance.
Be careful with this, because it really works ;)

Calling stored procedure from unix shell script

Hello,
I am facing a problem while calling a stored procedure from UNIX shell script. I want to return a output variable from the stored procedure to the UNIX environment.
Here is the code-
#!/bin/sh
OUTPUT=`sqlplus cmag/magnum@dw <<ENDOFSQL
set serveroutput on;
var prd_out varchar2(100);
exec create_pm_window(:prd_out);
exit;
ENDOFSQL`
echo " output is - $OUTPUT"
The problem is :prd_out is not getting copied to shell variable OUTPUT.
I have a dbms_output.put_line in the stored proc create_pm_window and I can see that prd_out is getting populated.
Any help is really appreciated.
Thanks'
Rakhee

First step :
make sure the PL/SQL works as expected.
Does the following display the expected output executed from SQL*Plus ?
set serverout on
declare
prd_out varchar2(100);
begin
create_pm_window(prd_out);
dbms_output.put_line('output is '||prd_out);
end;
I don't have your procedure, but using a dummy procedure like :
Scott@my10g SQL>create procedure foo(p_out in out varchar2)
2 is
3 begin
4 select 'Hello '||instance_name into p_out from v$instance;
5 end;
6 /
Procedure created. and a toto.sh script as :OUTPUT=`sqlplus -s scott/tiger <<EOF
set pages 0 lines 120 trimout on trimspool on tab off echo off verify off feed off serverout on
var mavar varchar2(100);
exec foo(:mavar);
print mavar;
exit;
EOF`
echo "OUT = ${OUTPUT}"
exitIt works fine :[oracle@Nicosa-oel ~]$ ./toto.sh
OUT = Hello my10g

How to wrap import and export in a Unix shell script?

Hi all,
I want to write a simple korn shell Unix script to kick off export and import
for our Oracle 10g refresh databases. Do any of you have a script to do this?
The goal would be:
1. Take export using exp of 10 tables in PROD database on database server1
for the prod schema user
2. Use sftp or scp to copy over the export dump file to database server 2
3. Use a shell script to import the dump file into TEST database server for schema
test
4. use nohup to run the export and import in background through cron job
We are running Oracle 10g Release 2 on Red Hat Linux.
Thanks,
Ben Prusinski

Wouldn't it be easier to have both databases in your tnsnames.ora file. Then you can export and import on the same server without copying the files to another server.
script:
exp <username>/<password>@PROD file=<file>.dmp log=<explog>.log owner=prod
imp <username>/<password>@TEST file=<file>.dmp log=<implog>.log fromuser=prod touser=test
run this script as: nohup <scriptname> &
Since you are on oracle10g you can also use datapump (expdp and impdp) for faster exporting and importing, but I do not know the syntax by heart
