SQL scripts not running, possible timeout issue?
I am a novice Unix scripter and need a little advice/help on a script I've written that's causing some problems. We are using Solaris 9 on a Sun box and the script is invoked with the korn shell. I have a two-part question: I wrote a shell script that calls and executes 3 separate sql scripts, each spooling a text file. The first sql script calls an Oracle procedure that takes over 2 hours to run and the other 2 sql scripts take about 15 minutes each (when running them individually).
My first question is that after the procedure is finished (from the first sql script), I do not see any screen output, indicating when the job is complete. I cannot scroll to see the output but rather get a message saying my session is timed out. Is there a command/process I could type to see all the output if a job is timed out? We do have an OS timeout and firewall timeout process but this should occur only after the job is completed.
My other question ties in with the first. The other 2 sql jobs do not run after the 1st is complete. In each sql script, I am exiting the Oracle session and the shell script invokes each sql session one after the other. However, I cannot view the output to see where the process stopped and in looking in the destination directory for which the files should be spooled to, I only see the 1st sql script's file present. I then commented out the 1st sql script and ran the shell and the 2 other files appeared. I use the same exiting logic in each sql script. It appears that the timeout causes the other 2 scripts to not perform but I'm not sure.
I hope this makes sense. Any insight or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Eric

SYNOPSIS
oar-database --create [OPTIONS]
oar-database --drop [OPTIONS]
oar-database --setup [OPTIONS]
oar-database --reset [OPTIONS]
DESCRIPTION
Manage the oar database.
--setup
Initialize/Upgrade an existing database.
--reset
Reset an existing database.
--create
Create and initialize a new database/user.
--drop
Drop an existing database/user.
OPTIONS
General parameters
--conf=OAR_CONF_FILE
Define the oar configuration file to use. By default /etc/oar/oar.conf is used. This file doesn't exist, the default parameters for
each value are used.
--update-conf
The database parameters given in the command line are writen to the OAR_CONF_FILE
-h,--help
Display this help.
-d,--debug
Display more information during the script execution
-f,--force-sql
Force to resume the execution even if an sql instruction fails
-y,--force-yes
This option will cause oar-database to continue without prompting if it is doins something potentially harmful
Database admin parameters
These parameters are only needed for database/user creation or removing.
--db-is-local
For --create or --drop, this option tells that the database is local. oar-database can use local admin account to execute command
(useful for postgres).
--db-admin-user=DB_ADMIN_USER
For --create or --drop, this option gives the privilegied user to use.
--db-admin-pass=DB_ADMIN_PASS
For --create or --drop, this option gives the privilegied user pass to use.
SQL parameters
By default, if not specified, all the sql parameters are taken from the OAR_CONF_FILE. It is preferable to set these values directly to
this file.
--db-type=DB_TYPE
The type of the SQL database. It can be currently, mysql or Pg (for postgresql).
--db-user=DB_USER
Connect to the database as the user DB_USER instead of the one given in OAR_CONF_FILE. By default, if OAR_CONF_FILE doesn't specify a
user, it is oar.
--db-pass=DB_PASS
Connect to the database with the password DB_PASS instead of the one given in OAR_CONF_FILE.
--db-host=DB_HOST
Connect to the database on the host DB_HOST, By default, if OAR_CONF_FILE doesn't specify a host, it is localhost.
--db-port=DB_PORT
Connect to the database on the port DB_PORT, By default, if OAR_CONF_FILE doesn't specify a port, the value depend on the DB_TYPE. if
DB_TYPE is mysql, DB_PORT is 3306. If DB_TYPE is postgresql, DB_PORT is 5432.
--db-name=DB_NAME
Connect to the database on the host DB_HOST, By default, if OAR_CONF_FILE doesn't specify a database name, it is oar.
--db-ro-user=DB_RO_USER
same as --db-user except that it is for the read only access.
--db-ro-pass=DB_RO_PASS
same as --db-pass except that it is for the read only access.
EXAMPLES
Mysql
First you need to specify the sql parameters in /etc/oar/oar.conf. These parameters will be used by oar-database.
To create a new database (assuming that the sql root password is PASS):
oar-database --create --db-admin-user root --db-admin-pass PASS
To upgrade an existing database:
oar-database --setup
Postgresql
First you need to specify the sql parameters in /etc/oar/oar.conf. These parameters will be used by oar-database. Then if your postgresql
database is on the local system, you can use the option --db-is-local (otherwise, the procedure is the same as Mysql). So oar-database will
use the postgres unix user to administrate the database (you need privilegied access to the local system).
To create a new database:
oar-database --create --db-is-local
To upgrade an existing database:
oar-database --setup
Advanced usages
To make some tests or to administrate several databases, you can also specify the sql parameters on the command line. For example:
oar-database --create --db-type=Pg --db-host=HOST
--db-user=oar --db-pass=PASS
--db-admin-user=ADMIN_USER --db-admin-pass=ADMIN_PASS
will create the oar database and the oar user on the postgresql system hosted by HOST. The user ADMIN_USER must have the right to create
new databases and new roles on this system.
