Unix shell script to do a cold backup

i want to do a coldback using a unix shell script.
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
NK

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"
db="dbname"
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.

  • 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.

  • 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:
    <!--trace traceOpts="trace_all"/-->
    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.

  • 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,

  • 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

    Hi Experts,
    I have oracle procedure where in I have to pass the value of procedure parameter through unix script.
    Follwoing is the sample procedure which i tried to exceute from the unix.
    Procedure:
    create or replace procedure OWNER.PRC_TESTING_OWNER(OWNER IN VARCHAR2) AS
    sql_stmt varchar2(1000) := NULL;
    v_count number := 0;
    v_owner varchar2(100) := owner;

    used in cursor? :(
    Can anybody help me regarding the same?
    Thanks in Advance !! :D

    It's not the parameter in the cursor that is the problem, it's that you are trying to use static SQL for something that won't be known until run time (the owner of the table).
    You would need to use something like ...
    declare
       l_owner        varchar2(30) := 'SCOTT';
       l_ref_cursor   sys_refcursor;  
       type l_ename_tab is table of scott.emp.ename%type;
       l_ename_array  l_ename_tab;
    begin
       open l_ref_cursor for
          'select ename
          from ' || l_owner || '.emp';
       loop
          fetch l_ref_cursor bulk collect into l_ename_array limit 10;
          exit when l_ename_array.COUNT = 0;
          for x in 1 .. l_ename_array.count
          loop
             dbms_output.put_line(l_ename_array(x));
          end loop;
       end loop;
       close l_ref_cursor;

  • 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.
