It is significant.

The subshell call message=$("this is my message $var whatever $othervar") will fail with command not found error.

There is also an issue with subshell call, which will not work in such form in legacy shells, so `command` is to be used in those.
Subshell expects a valid command not $("arbitrary text") or `"arbitrary text"`

For instance :
Code:
$ cat mess.sh 
message=$("This is my $(date +%s)")
echo $message
$./mess.sh
./mess.sh: line 1: This is my 1515156364: command not found

Try :
Code:
message="Running out of space \"$partition ($usep%)\" on $(hostname) as on $(date)"
echo "$message"
.. further code processing / inserting $message
cat <<EOF
'$message'
EOF

Notice that no subshells are required and your program should produce results.

Have you considered writing an sql file and passing message as a parameter ?

Something in the lines of :
Code:
sqlplus user/passs @insertscript.sql "$message"
# where in your insertscript.sql you have :
INSERT INTO ALERT_EMAIL(PUID, ID, TxnID, Recipients,Subject,Body,IsNew,CreationDate,LastModifiedBy,IsSMS)
VALUES(ALERT_EMAIL_PUID_SEQ.NEXTVAL, '111111','','','&1,'body',1, SYSDATE, 'axienta',1);
/


Hope that clears things out

jifty::dbi::handle::oracle

Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle(3pm)

NAME

	 Jifty::DBI::Handle::Oracle - An oracle specific Handle object

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a subclass of Jifty::DBI::Handle that compensates for some of the idiosyncrasies of Oracle.

METHODS

   connect PARAMHASH: Driver, Database, Host, User, Password
       Takes a paramhash and connects to your DBI datasource.

   database_version
       Returns value of ORA_OCI constant, see "Constants" in DBD::Oracle.

   insert
       Takes a table name as the first argument and assumes that the rest of the arguments are an array of key-value pairs to be inserted.

   build_dsn PARAMHASH
       Takes a bunch of parameters:

       Required: Driver, Database or Host/SID, Optional: Port and RequireSSL

       Builds a dsn suitable for an Oracle DBI connection

   blob_params column_NAME column_type
       Returns a hash ref for the bind_param call to identify BLOB types used by the current database for a particular column type.  The current
       Oracle implementation only supports ORA_CLOB types(112).

   apply_limits STATEMENTREF ROWS_PER_PAGE FIRST_ROW
       takes an SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return ROWS_PER_PAGE starting with FIRST_ROW;

   distinct_query STATEMENTREF
       takes an incomplete SQL SELECT statement and massages it to return a DISTINCT result set.
