Unix sql script

hi,
I need some help if possible
I have the folloiwng script
select count(*) from dba_users where account_status !='OPEN'
and username not in (
'PROD_HCUST_HK',
'MDSYS',
'SCOTT',
'WMSYS',
'CTXSYS',
'ANONYMOUS',
'OUTLN',
'MGMT_VIEW',
'SI_INFORMTN_SCHEMA',

'DMSYS',
'ORACLE_OCM',
'TSMSYS',
'MDDATA',
'DIP',
'SYSMAN',
'XDB',
'ORDPLUGINS',
'OLAPSYS'
;normally the result of count(*) will be '0'
I need to wrap this in a unix script to be able to then get a result so that I can if the value of count(*) is > 0 then I can get an alert from grid control.
regards
Alan

Hi Alan,
One way I do this is using a shell script to run an .sql file with your code in it. i.e. have a file called selectAll.sql with whatever query you want to run and then I use a shell script in the following fashion.
The SQL that I use selects one column per row.
This is a /bin/bash script that is run as root, hence the su - oracle stuff
MEDIA=`su - oracle -c ". ~/.bash_profile; sqlplus username/password@database @/u01/sql/selectAll -S | grep ':' | grep -v 'Connected' | grep -v 'SQL'"`
#Use newline as separator
OIFS=$IFS
IFS=;
#print one line per MIB variable
for text in $MEDIA; do
echo $text | sed s/\://
doneHope this helps,
Conor

Spool Russian Characters from a unix(AIX) sql script

Hi All,
I have a problem selecting and spooling a column whose characters are in russian to a flat file. If I use oracle sql developer, the data comes out right, e.g
Р-Н ТАШКЕНТ
However is i try to run the same select from a unix sql script and spool the results, I get some gibberish like:
ò-î ôáûëåîô or a chain of question marks ?????????
select * from nls_database_parameters gives:
NLS_LANGUAGE=AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY=AMERICA
NLS_CHARACTERSET=UTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=AL16UTF16
I have tried exporting the environment variable using these various options individially to no avail:
export NLS_LANG=RUSSIAN_CIS.CL8MSWIN1251
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.RU8PC866
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.CL8KOI8R
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.CL8MACCYRILLICS
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.RU8PC855
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.RU8BESTA
RUSSIAN_RUSSIA.CL8ISO8859P5
Please help.
Thanks,

Os version: AIX 6.1.0.0
Database version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bit
with the default values for NLS_LANG, I run sqlplus
sqlplus user/password@oracle_sid
select column_name from table_name;
and the output is:
column_name
I exit and export NLS_LANG=RUSSIAN_CIS.CL8ISO8859P5
go back into sqlplus and run the same query as above, and the output is
column_name
À-½ Â°Èºµ½Â
À-¾½ ÃÀÂ°Ç¸ÀÇ¸ºÁº¸¹
Â°Èºµ½Â
Â°Èºµ½Â
¾»Â¸½¾¹ À-¾½

Ä°À³¾½°
Ïºº°Á°À°¹Áº¸¹
Â°Èºµ½Â
Á°¼°Àº°½´
So it seems the output I get is somehow influenced by the value of environment variable NLS_LANG, so it may be that either I need the correct value for this environment variable or I need some config on the OS level.....?
Also the command locale -a gives following output - I am not very good on locales, so it maybe that the russian local isn't installed...?
$ locale -a
C
POSIX
en_US.8859-15

Unix shell script run from pl/sql procedure

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.

Sql script in UNIX

When I run a sql script in unix using sqlplus command, the process halts at some point. No matter how long I wait, it does not finish (it does not bring the command prompt back). There are no problems in SQL*PLUS. This process usually takes about 30 mins when I run from SQL * PLUS. Any ideas why it hangs in UNIX?
sqlplus -s userid @script
Thanks

Are you specifying a password ?
Have you set the ORACLE_SID ?

Unix command into a pl/sql script

Could you tell me how to run a unix command (cp, rm, mkdir....)
into a pl/sql script ?

sigh this is an old chestnut. it can only be done using a java stored procedure. the instructions for doing this can be found in old postings on this forum - use the Search facility. alternatively try the AskTom site, and Metalink posted a solution as well.

How to prepare for Converting UNIX shell scripts to PL/SQL

Hi All
I was said, that i may have to convert a lot of unix shell script to PL/SQL, what are the concepts i need to know to do it efficently,
what are the options PL/SQL is having to best do that.
I know the question is little unclear, but I too dont have much inputs about that i'm sorry for that, just its a question of how
to prepare myself to do it the best way. What are the concepts i have to be familiar with.
Many Thanks
MJ

Just how much work is involved, is hard to say. Many years ago I also wrote (more than once) a complete ETL system using a combination of shell scripts, SQL*Plus and PL/SQL.
If the PL/SQL code is fairly clean, uses bind variables and not substitution variables, then it should be relatively easy to convert that PL/SQL code in the script to a formal stored procedure in the database.
There is however bits and pieces that will be difficult to move into the PL/SQL layer as it requires new software - like for example FTP'ing a file from the production server to the ETL server. This can be done using external o/s calls from within PL/SQL. Or, you can install a FTP API library in PL/SQL and FTP that file directly into a CLOB and parse and process the CLOB.
Think of Oracle as an o/s in its own right. In Oracle we have a mail client, a web browser, IPC methods like pipes and messages queues, cron, file systems, web servers and services, etc. And PL/SQL is the "shell scripting" (times a thousand) language of this Oracle o/s .
In some cases you will find it fairly easy to map a Unix o/s feature or command to one in Oracle. For example, a Unix wget to fetch a HTML CSV file can easily be replaced in Oracle using a UTL_HTTP call.
On the other hand, techniques used in Unix like creating a pipe to process data, grep for certain stuff and awk certain tokens for sed to process further... in Oracle this will look and work a lot different and use SQL.

You didn't specify if you want a total time for a portion of a shell script, or the whole script in general. If you only want to know the time of the whole shell script, just reference the linux/unix built-in variable ${SECONDS}. This variable is reset for each PID.
I usually add these lines to the bottom of long running shell scripts (just before an exit code):
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
((TIME = ${SECONDS} / 60))
echo "Script ran for ${TIME} minutes. (${SECONDS} seconds total.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Like I said, ${SECONDS} starts ticking from 0 when you start the script, so no need to export the variable, just reference it. The nice part is that you don't have to bother getting into sqlplus and hit the database.

Your requirement seems to be executing the script present in the path:

Is there anyway I can execute the above script by using a backward slash?Whats the need for using a backslash? Unix paths are separated by forward slash in contrast to windows.

How to execute this sql script from a plsql procedure??

Hi all,
Thanks for all the replies. I have found the solution with external procedures.
Following is the complete step by step guide.
1. Create the OSCommand Java Class using the following statement:
connect as any user:
create or replace and compile java source named oscommand as
import java.io.*;
public class OSCommand{
public static String Run(String Command){
try{
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(Command);
return("0");
catch (Exception e){
System.out.println("Error running command: " + Command +
"\n" + e.getMessage());
return(e.getMessage());
2. Create the following Wrapper Function using the following statement:
CREATE or REPLACE FUNCTION OSCommand_Run(Command IN STRING)
RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
LANGUAGE JAVA
NAME 'OSCommand.Run(java.lang.String) return int';
3. connect as sys
Execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.io.FilePermission', '<<ALL FILES>>','execute');
execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'writeFileDescriptor', '*' );
execute dbms_java.grant_permission( 'FKHALID','SYS:java.lang.RuntimePermission', 'readFileDescriptor', '*' );
commit;
note: here fkhalid is the oracle user.
connect as fkhalid user:
Declare
expdp_cmd Varchar2(2000);
Begin
expdp_cmd := OSCommand_Run('cmd /c sqlplus fkhalid@mtcedwt/pwd @d:\ORA_DUMPS\mydbexp.sql');
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line(expdp_cmd);
End;
In Unix
Set Serverout On
Declare
x Varchar2(2000);
Begin
x := OSCommand_Run('/home/test/myoscommand.sh')
DBMS_OUTPUT.Put_Line(x);
End;
I will check the dbms_scheduler also and will let you know the results.
Thanks

SQL script based on hostname and database name?

I am trying to write a script that I can run on several unix servers and databases that will do different sql statements based on which server and database it is being run in.
Something like:
if hostname = 'A' and database name = 'D' then do this
else if hostname = 'B' and database name = 'F' then do that
I have tried many diifferent combinations of shell scripts and sql scripts but can't seem to get anything that works.
Can someone help me out? Thanks.

Since you are already able to get he db and host info, you are well on your way to branching based on that information. All you need is the basic framework:
declare
db VARCHAR2(30);
host VARCHAR2(30);
sqlcmd VARCHAR2(4000);
begin
select sys_context('userenv','host') host
       , sys_context('userenv','db_name') db_name
    into host
       , db
    from dual;
case
    when db = 'XE' and host = 'mypc' then
      sqlcmd := q'[local_package.do_something('parm1', :db, :host)]';
      execute IMMEDIATE sqlcmd USING db, host;
    when db = 'DEV' and host in ('serv1','serv2') then
      sqlcmd := q'[different_packge.do_something('parm1', :db, :host)]';
      execute IMMEDIATE sqlcmd USING db, host;
    else
      dbms_output.put_line('unrecognized db/host combination: '||db||', '||host);
end case;
end;
/In this example I've used dynamic SQL since not all instances are guaranteed to have any or all of the package procedures referenced in the dynamic sql. With out the dynamic sql, you would get errors and be unable to run the script on any instance lacking one or more of the reference package procedures..

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
