You will need to set up the profile of the user account you are ssh connecting with initially so that the PATH includes when the sudo command is, or you could fully qualify it in your command.

I would suggest that this has it's own problems:-
Quote:
Code:
ssh -n user@remote host "cd xx/yy/z; pwd; sudo su - username ;sqlplus user/pwd@db; srvrmgr ;"

The section that has the sudo su - username in it is just that. It will switch user and sit at a prompt. If you want to run sqlplpus or whatever, you need to supply that as arguments, such as:-
Code:
ssh -n user@remote host "cd xx/yy/z; pwd; sudo su - username \"sqlplus user/pwd@db\""

I have highlighted in green the escaped quotes. They need to be escaped because they are within the quoted command that the ssh is sending.


I hope that this helps
