done < sidlist

You should read up on using SQL/Plus in a coprocess to save having to start it up once for every row in the sidlist file.

Also be care careful as I believe a ps -ef will show the username and password from the sqlplus command line which is a security issue.

I see what you mean, i can for sure modify script like that...but what dose the IFS do in while loop ??? is it like a comma seperator ?
