Special Forums UNIX and Linux Applications Execute Oracle pl/sql commands in a scrit using nohup Post 303009105 by jim mcnamara on Friday 8th of December 2017 09:38:51 PM

You have made the process hard to debug and to maintain.

First off spool files have limitations as to number of lines, for example.
Are you really expecting 10000 lines of output? I would consider using something like at
to run, logon as user oracle, then:
[code]
Code:
at -m now <<!
sqlplus /
set echo on verify on feedback 1 timing on time on pages 10000 lines 132 trimspool on tab off flush off
/
WHENEVER SQLERROR CONTINUE
set echo on verify on feedback 1 timing on time on pages 10000 lines 132 trimspool on tab off flush off
@install_1_0.sql
disconnect
!

Why? possibly because you have an error condition that generates tons of garbage.

But oracle user gets notified when the job ends - email - and you do not create a gigantic file except in /var/mail (or wherever mail text is stored in your system).
You may also want to edit the .sql file to remove a lot of chatty output. Otherwise your problems are lost in a sea of junk notifications.

BTW: if you are getting all of those ORA notifications (the ones you grep -v) your script or your data need to be looked at carefully. A script should throw one fatal error then abort not keep on running. Otherwise you run the risk of corrupting indexes, creating orphans and so on. Example ORA-01921 deals with junk/bogus roles in a connect string. That should never happen. Why would a process need to keep connecting to new db's if it is designed correctly? Aside from that fact, it is a huge overhead.

CHING(6)							 BSD Games Manual							  CHING(6)

NAME
ching -- the book of changes and other cookies SYNOPSIS
ching [hexagram] DESCRIPTION
The I Ching or Book of Changes is an ancient Chinese oracle that has been in use for centuries as a source of wisdom and advice. The text of the oracle (as it is sometimes known) consists of sixty-four hexagrams, each symbolized by a particular arrangement of six straight (---) and broken (- -) lines. These lines have values ranging from six through nine, with the even values indicating the broken lines. Each hexagram consists of two major sections. The Judgement relates specifically to the matter at hand (e.g., ``It furthers one to have somewhere to go.'') while the Image describes the general attributes of the hexagram and how they apply to one's own life (``Thus the superior man makes himself strong and untiring.'') When any of the lines have the values six or nine, they are moving lines; for each there is an appended judgement which becomes significant. Furthermore, the moving lines are inherently unstable and change into their opposites; a second hexagram (and thus an additional judgement) is formed. Normally, one consults the oracle by fixing the desired question firmly in mind and then casting a set of changes (lines) using yarrow-stalks or tossed coins. The resulting hexagram will be the answer to the question. Using an algorithm suggested by S. C. Johnson, the UNIX oracle simply reads a question from the standard input (up to an EOF) and hashes the individual characters in combination with the time of day, process id and any other magic numbers which happen to be lying around the system. The resulting value is used as the seed of a random number generator which drives a simulated coin-toss divination. The answer is then piped through nroff(1) for formatting and will appear on the standard output. For those who wish to remain steadfast in the old traditions, the oracle will also accept the results of a personal divination using, for example, coins. To do this, cast the change and then type the resulting line values as an argument. The impatient modern may prefer to settle for Chinese cookies; try fortune(6). DIAGNOSTICS
