How to call RMAN stored script from within DBMS_SCHEDULER

Hi
I have a RMAN script to backup my RAC database. The backup script is stored in recovery catalog.
How can I schedule it using DBMS_SCHEDULER not unix cron to run this stored script?
Any input is appreciated.
Kevin

begin
dbms_scheduler.create_schedule(
schedule_name => 'daily_at_4am',
repeat_interval => 'FREQ=DAILY; INTERVAL=1;
BYDAY=MON,TUE,WED,THU,FRI,SAT,SUN; BYHOUR=4',
comments => 'schedule to run daily at 4am');
dbms_scheduler.create_program
( program_name => 'backup_database',
program_type => 'EXECUTABLE',
program_action => '/opt/oracle/product/admin/bin/rman_fullback.sh',
enabled => TRUE,
comments => 'Backup database using rman'
dbms_scheduler.create_job (
job_name=>'daily_backup',
program_name =>'backup_database',
schedule_name=> 'daily_at_4am',
enabled => true,
comments => 'backs up databases daily at 4am'
end;

How to call a stored procedure from WorkShop

Hello Everyone .. I'm quite new with WebLogic 8.1 & WorkShop, so please bare with
me .. Today I'm simply trying to find out how to call a stored procedure from
within workshop, using any of the DB Controls .. I see workshop provides a way
create a Java Control, Rowset Control, but it wont easily allow for a stored procedured
to be entered in place of the inline query .. Perhaps I've over looked it. Any
advise on the best way to tackle this task will be appreciated.

How to call a shell script from a java code

Hello can any one suggest me how to call a shell script from a java program that takes three parameters.
i have a shell script (msp_restore_gui) when i run this script in the command line in a RHEL5 ,SUSE10 and Debian machine it works fine .I even tested to call it from a java program and it also worked fine but when i used the same in a J2ee application where the user when clicks the restore button in a webserver this inturn sends the request to a java file named BackupManager.java where i call the shell script.But here it fails.Waiting for your suggestions.If you want i can put the code also here

How to call a python script from a TestStand sequence?

Please tell me how is it possible to call a python script from a TestStand sequence.
Thank for your help in advance.
Imre

Here you can find some information about Python and LabVIEW:
http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=124424&query.id=149647#M124424
If you have LabVIEW, you could use LabVIEW steps to call your Phyton Scipts.
Another solution would be, to do, what is decriibed in the thread directly in TestStand:
You can call a dll or .NET assemblies directly from teststand, or use the "Call Executable" TestStep.

Calling a stored procedure from within a ViewObject

Is it possible to make stored procedure call from within a BC4J ViewObject? Basically something like this:
select * from table(f1(3)); where f1 is a table function. Using Oracle's pipelined table functions?
If not, is it possible to call a stored procedure from Java and have the returned results be put back into a BC4J RowSet.
In addition, is there a way to create a JDBC Resultset from a BC4J RowSet?
We need to be able to dynamically create our SQL statements (the entire SQL, not just the where clause) but are required to have these sql statements generated/executed from within a pl/sql stored procedure in the database.

Is it possible to make stored procedure call from within a BC4J ViewObject? Basically something like this:

Yes. Using our expert-mode query feature this is possible.
is it possible to call a stored procedure from Java and have the returned results be put back into a BC4J RowSet.
Yes. See this article about basing a view object on a REF CURSOR:
http://radio.weblogs.com/0118231/2003/03/03.html
In addition, is there a way to create a JDBC Resultset from a BC4J RowSet?
No. Not directly. What's the business requirement here so I can understand better?
We need to be able to dynamically create our SQL statements (the entire SQL, not just the where clause) but are required to have these sql statements generated/executed from within a pl/sql stored procedure in the database.
REF CURSOR would work fine, or if it's just the statement that needs to be generated dynamically, you could fetch the text of the SQL statement from the stored procedure, then use createViewObjectFromQueryStmt(). Although this has runtime overhead involved with describing the query.
The REF CURSOR based approach is probably best for this.

How to call a Oracle Form from within the APEX

Hi,
I have a requirment where need to call a oracle form from within the Oracle APEX application?
I will appriciate if can someone help me out.
Thanks

Hi,
are you working with Forms 6i or 10g?
If you want to call a forms 10g page. Just use a button with javascript:
- Target type: URL
- URL Target: javascript:window.open ('http://<server>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=<conf>','Forms window');
With Forms 6i you can open the directory where your forms file is inside (works just with IE):
<script type="text/javascript">
function fnc_window() {w = open('C:\\FormsFiles', "winLov","scrollbars=yes,resizable=no,width=600,height=400");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
</script>Or execute the forms file with vbscript (IE only):
<script language = "vbscript">
sub fnc_forms()
dim progName
progName = "c:\FormsFiles\myForm.exe"
set oShell = createobject("wscript.shell") 'create a shell
'***use the line below to call your app, defined above with the "progName" variable:
oShell.run(progName)
end sub
</script>

How to call a set method from within a constructor

Hello,
I want to be able to call a set method from within a Scanner, to be used as the argument to pass to the Scanner (from a source file). Here's what i tried:
private void openFiles()
        input = new Scanner( setSource );
    and here is the set method:
public String setSource( String in )
        source = in;
        return source;
    }obviously there will be more code in this method but i'm trying to tackle one problem at a time. Thanks in advance..

The "String in" declaration says: "Nobody may ever invoke setSource() without specifying a certain String. The content of the String is known at run-time only."
In no place in your code you say the compiler: "I want the 'in' variable (actually, parameter) of method setSource() to contain the first arg which is passed to the application".
This is exactly the same mechanism allowing you to write "new Scanner" with something inside the two parentheses.

How to call multiple stored procedure from same DB Adapter

Hi,
I want to invoke 3 stored procedures from my message flow in BUS . I created a DB adapter and invoked 1 successfully . Now I don't to configure 2 other DB adapters for calling other 2 stored procedures . I want some how to be able to call the other 2 from the first DB adapter only . Somehow I need the flexibility to have procedure names as the operation names in 1 wsdl and be able to configure this in JDeveloper for this at time of DB adapter configuration . I am using 11G . Is it possible ?

You can probably create a DB adapter with operation type selected as Execute Pure SQL and write SQL code to invoke the stored procedures depending on the procedure name (which you can get as one of the parameters of DB Adapter).
However, Even if you were able to do it, the DB Adapter schemas are generated based on stored procedure parameter list and types. If you use Execute Pure SQL type of DB Adapter the schema will be generated based on the parameters which you are using in your custom SQL code within DB Adapter. Which means that if you want to add a new stored procedure as target which has a different name and different parameters then you will need to regenerate the DB adapter and update your custom SQL code. This also means that you will need to do regression testing interfaces to all stored procedures whenever there is any change in this DBAdapter.
Now, my question is why do you want to invoke multiple stored procedures from same DB adapter?
This is not a good way to design integration solutions and makes your services resistance to change as it will take more time to change and test.
If all that you want is to have a web service which can have different operations for different stored procedures then you should create three business services and create a wrapper proxy service which has one operation for each stored procedure, within the proxy transform and call the correct backend service (you can use operational branch). This way you have a modular code where each module (read interface to one stored procedure) can be independently modified and tested.

How to call a stored procedure from my JSP?

Hi to all,
          I have a very simple jsp page and a simple sql server stored procedure!
          I need to call this stored procedure by passing two parameters.
          My result set will have 4 columns.
          I would really appreciate any input on how to issue this call to a SP.
          I am new to JSP.
          Regards,

          Sam,
          BEA provides examples that are shipped with the product under
          <beahome>\weblogic700\samples\server\src\examples\
          Look at the jsp directory for JSP examples that access a database and look at
          say the jdbc\oracle\storedprocs.java for an example of java code calling out to
          a stored procedure - - by combining one of the jsp database examples with this
          stored procedure example you should be 'good to go'

How to call a batch script from DI?

Hi All,
I'm new to DI/DS and would like to know is there a way to call a batch sciprt (.bat file) in DI?
What I try to do is,
1.call a batch script to move source files from a file server to the source folder before kicking off the data flow
2. once the data flow is completed, call a batch script to move the processed source files to the achive folder.
In other ETL tool like informatica it can be done via the command task, is there something similar in DI?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
BL

Thanks Suneer.
Just want to clarify, when I create the script task in the work flow, should I put the path of my batch file or the batch script itself in?
e.g., my batch script is movefile.bat under folder C:\Script,
and the command is: move /Y "C:\Input\*.*". "C:\Archive\".
in the script task, should I put
exec('cmd', 'C:\Script\movefile.bat')
or
exec('cmd', 'move /Y "C:\Input\*.*". "C:\Archive\".')
Thanks again for your help
Regards,
BL
