Checking SQL DB Availability
Hello everybody. I have a little question. Im creating a script for checking the status of different servers, and everything is running fine except for one thing. I have to check if certain DBs are connectables, I dont care anything else, nor running querys nor updating tables, the only thing I need to know is if the DB is connectable. It should be an easy task but frankly Im not very sure how to do it, so I tried the code below. And the problem I got with it is an "sqlplus : not found" from the unix shell. If anyone could help me itd be great. Thanks in advance.
Here goes what I have until now. If anyone knows another way thats great, I really dont care HOW to do it, just that it works.
#!/bin/bash
dbconnection=1
echo "Setting environment"
ssh -l myuser UNIXSERVER ". /apps/Ascential/DataStage/DSEngine/dsenv"
echo "Connecting to SQL"
dbcoonection=$(ssh -l myuser UNIXSERVER "sqlplus ????@????/????")
dbconnection=$?
echo "Status = $dbconnection"
if [ "$dbconnection" -lt "1" ]; then
echo "Connected"
else
echo "Not connected"
fi
