You need to set this up with redirection and a 'here' document.

Try something like this:-

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
sqlplus -S <<-EOSQL | read COUNT
user/pass@host
set pagesize 0
select * from table;
EOSQL

if [ $COUNT = 500 ];
then
echo " up " | mailx -r s@r.com -s "success" a@abc.com
else 
echo "not up" | mailx -r s@r.com -s "fail" a@abc.com
fi

The set pagesize 0 will turn off headings and page splitting. I'm assuming that you are sure you have only a single one-column record.

The -S is a silence flag, so you don't get all the version information and other messages from a normal connection.

I'd avoid /nolog as you do want to log on anyway.


I hope that this helps.

getusershell(3C)					   Standard C Library Functions 					  getusershell(3C)

NAME
getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h> char *getusershell(void); void setusershell(void); void endusershell(void); DESCRIPTION
The getusershell() function returns a pointer to a legal user shell as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If /etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place: /bin/bash /bin/csh /bin/jsh /bin/ksh /bin/pfcsh /bin/pfksh /bin/pfsh /bin/sh /bin/tcsh /bin/zsh /sbin/jsh /sbin/pfsh /sbin/sh /usr/bin/bash /usr/bin/csh /usr/bin/jsh /usr/bin/ksh /usr/bin/pfcsh /usr/bin/pfksh /usr/bin/pfsh /usr/bin/sh /usr/bin/tcsh /usr/bin/zsh /usr/xpg4/bin/sh The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells. The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list. The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells. RETURN VALUES
The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF. BUGS
All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved. SunOS 5.10 30 Aug 2004 getusershell(3C)
