Database Connection test in unix Script
i have a unix script that gives me the sysdate from the database EDNAMID.WORLD.What i want my script to do the following

1) Establish a database connection
2) if database connection is successfull then echo the message "Connected"
3) put the o/p of the Sql query in a spool file
4) then disconnect from the database by echoing the message "disconnected"

Below is the script that i have written :

Code:
#!/bin/ksh
sqlplus -silent Aix/full@ednamid.world @"naveed.sql"<<END
END

code in the sql file naveed.sql
Code:
set pagesize 1000 line 1000 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
spool /ednadtu3/u01/pipe/naveed/test/database/d1.txt
select sysdate from dual;
spool off;
exit;

what i want is how to implement the steps 2 and 4 and in which code

What I did previously was to verify the connection status only after the connection. For your reference as follow (ksh):

Code:
LOGIN_STATUS=`sqlplus -s /nolog <<SQLEND
connect ${UserName}/${PassWord}
set pagesize 1000 line 1000 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
spool /ednadtu3/u01/pipe/naveed/test/database/d1.txt
select sysdate from dual;
spool off;
exit;
SQLEND`

echo ${LOGIN_STATUS} |grep "ORA-" >> /dev/null

LOGIN_STATUS=$?

if (( $LOGIN_STATUS ))
then
     echo "Connected"
else
     echo "Problem connecting"
fi

That would be an entire shell script handling all the way, including what the sql file is doing.

However you need to ensure your oracle environment settings are all set
