Send a shell parameter to a sqlplus (from shell)

Question

So, on AIX OS, I have a script that runs some queries on my Oracle DB (11gr2)
I run it in a way like:
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" > my_log.log <<EOF!
set serveroutput on
declare
x pls_integer;
begin
     begin
          update common.settings set value='some_value' where settingid=9;
end;
EOF!
but, I would like to send a shell parameter to a sqlplus...
how could I do that?

Answer 1

I have a script wich is not running... why?
#!/bin/bash
my_name=ddddd
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" > result.log <<EOF!
set serveroutput on
declare
begin
insert into common.a_test(tekst) values $ime;
commit;
dbms_output.put_line('value: ' || $my_name);
end;
EOF!
