Issue with running multiple commands withing su command
RHEL 6.2/Bash shell
root user will be executing the below script. It switches to oracle user and expect to do the following things
A. Source the environment variables for BATGPRD Database (the file used for sourcing is shown below after the script)
B. Shutdown the DB from sqlplus -- The section between EOF takes care of this
C. execute ps command and grep for the string pmon
D. Execute srvctl start command to start the database
Commands for A,B,C and D and enclosed in a single quote delimited by colons.
Issue description:
DB is shutdown succesfully from sqlplus (A & B ). But ps command and srvctl commands shown in red are not executed.
The exit command shown below (in green below) is actually the exit from sqlplus. I don't if this affecting the execution of remaining
sections of the script.

runuser
RUNUSER(1) User Commands RUNUSER(1)NAME
runuser - run a command with substitute user and group ID
SYNOPSIS
runuser [options] -u user [[--] command [argument...]]
runuser [options] [-] [user [argument...]]
DESCRIPTION
runuser allows to run commands with a substitute user and group ID. If the option -u is not given, it falls back to su-compatible seman-
tics and a shell is executed. The difference between the commands runuser and su is that runuser does not ask for a password (because it
may be executed by the root user only) and it uses a different PAM configuration. The command runuser does not have to be installed with
set-user-ID permissions.
If the PAM session is not required then recommended solution is to use setpriv(1) command.
When called without arguments, runuser defaults to running an interactive shell as root.
For backward compatibility, runuser defaults to not change the current directory and to only set the environment variables HOME and SHELL
(plus USER and LOGNAME if the target user is not root). This version of runuser uses PAM for session management.
OPTIONS -c, --command=command
Pass command to the shell with the -c option.
-f, --fast
Pass -f to the shell, which may or may not be useful depending on the shell.
-g, --group=group
The primary group to be used. This option is allowed for the root user only.
-G, --supp-group=group
Specify a supplemental group. This option is available to the root user only. The first specified supplementary group is also used
as a primary group if the option --group is unspecified.
-, -l, --login
Start the shell as a login shell with an environment similar to a real login:
o clears all the environment variables except for TERM
o initializes the environment variables HOME, SHELL, USER, LOGNAME, PATH
o changes to the target user's home directory
o sets argv[0] of the shell to '-' in order to make the shell a login shell
-m, -p, --preserve-environment
Preserve the entire environment, i.e. it does not set HOME, SHELL, USER nor LOGNAME. The option is ignored if the option --login is
specified.
-s, --shell=shell
Run the specified shell instead of the default. The shell to run is selected according to the following rules, in order:
o the shell specified with --shell
o the shell specified in the environment variable SHELL if the --preserve-environment option is used
o the shell listed in the passwd entry of the target user
o /bin/sh
If the target user has a restricted shell (i.e. not listed in /etc/shells) the --shell option and the SHELL environment variables
are ignored unless the calling user is root.
--session-command=command
Same as -c , but do not create a new session. (Discouraged.)
-V, --version
Display version information and exit.
-h, --help
Display help text and exit.
CONFIG FILES
runuser reads the /etc/default/runuser and /etc/login.defs configuration files. The following configuration items are relevant for
runuser:
ENV_PATH (string)
Defines the PATH environment variable for a regular user. The default value is /usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin.
ENV_ROOTPATH (string)
ENV_SUPATH (string)
Defines the PATH environment variable for root. The default value is /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin.
ALWAYS_SET_PATH (boolean)
If set to yes and --login and --preserve-environment were not specified runuser initializes PATH.
EXIT STATUS
runuser normally returns the exit status of the command it executed. If the command was killed by a signal, runuser returns the number of
the signal plus 128.
Exit status generated by runuser itself:
1 Generic error before executing the requested command
126 The requested command could not be executed
127 The requested command was not found
FILES
/etc/pam.d/runuser
default PAM configuration file
/etc/pam.d/runuser-l
PAM configuration file if --login is specified
/etc/default/runuser
runuser specific logindef config file
/etc/login.defs global logindef config file

This runuser command was derived from coreutils' su, which was based on an implementation by David MacKenzie, and the Fedora runuser com-
mand by Dan Walsh.
AVAILABILITY
The runuser command is part of the util-linux package and is available from Linux Kernel Archive <https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils
/util-linux/>.
