Question

Hi,
I have two instances (say tst1 and tst2) under same oracle_home. I have to do a export on daily basis on tst2. So I wrote one exp.dat file and have a exp.sh script to run the export. But when I run the .sh file it waits for confirmation of ORACLE_SID. This is what I have in nohup.out
*./tst2_exp.sh: /etc/bashrc[38]: shopt: not found*
*./tst2_exp.sh: /etc/bashrc[47]: shopt: not found*
*ORACLE_SID = [tst2] ?*
How can I make it to run automatically. This is my .sh file
*#!/bin/ksh*
*. /home/oracle/.bash_profile*
export ORACLE_SID=tst2
export ORACLE_HOME=/app01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
*. /usr/local/bin/oraenv*
datestamp=`date +%m-%d-%Y`
exp parfile=/app01/app/warehouse/export/tst2_exp_full.dat file=/app01/app/warehouse/export/tst2_full.dmp.$datestamp log=/app01/app/warehouse/log/tst2_full.log.$datestamp
gzip -f /app01/app/warehouse/export/tst2_full.dmp.$datestamp
Thanks,

The script file needs to read
#!/bin/ksh
. /home/oracle/.bash_profile
export ORACLE_SID=tst2
export ORAENV_ASK="NO"
. /usr/local/bin/oraenv
# oraenv sets ORACLE_HOME and PATH
export ORAENV_ASK=""
datestamp=`date +%m-%d-%Y`
exp parfile=/app01/app/warehouse/export/${ORACLE_SID}_exp_full.dat file=/app01/app/warehouse/export/${ORACLE_SID}_full.dmp.$datestamp log=/app01/app/warehouse/log/${ORACLE_SID}_full.log.$datestamp
gzip -f /app01/app/warehouse/export/${ORACLE_SID}_full.dmp.$datestamp
This code is portable, your code has everything hardcoded and needs to be maintained often.
You also can export to a pipe and compress on the fly.
