. /opt/home/rep/.profile

#!/bin/sh
VALUE=`sqlplus -silent rep/Ndk38f7@dw <<END
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
select trunc(max(chg_dt)) from NOT_SCHEDULED_INSTALL;
exit;
END`
VALUE2=`sqlplus -silent rep/Ndk38f7@dw <<END
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
select trunc(sysdate) from dual;
exit;
End`
if [[ $VALUE -eq $VALUE2 ]]; then
echo "No rows returned from database"
exit 0
else
echo $VALUE2
echo $VALUE
fi

Oracle already has date arithmetic, ksh doesn't - use PL/SQL:

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

date_equal()
{

sqlplus -silent rep/Ndk38f7@dw <<END
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off serverout on size 100000
DECLARE 
   date1 DATE:=NULL;
   date2 DATE:=NULL;
BEGIN
DBMS_OUTPUT.enable(100000);
select trunc(max(chg_dt)) into date1 from NOT_SCHEDULED_INSTALL;
select trunc(sysdate) into date2 from dual;
IF date1 = date2
THEN
	DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('1');
ELSE
    DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('0');
END IF;
END;
/
exit;
END

}

if [[ $(date_equal) -eq 1 ]] ; then
# do something 
else
# do something else
fi

Thanks for your reply.
Probelm is it do not work properly, it always print 'not ok'

if [[ $(date_equal) -eq 1 ]] ; then
echo ' ok'
else
echo ' not ok'
fi

thanks

I've used this before and it works pretty well.
Does a few different things with dates depending on the parameters.

#! /usr/bin/ksh

# datecalc -- Perderabo's date calculator
#

USAGE="\
datecalc -a year month day - year month day
datecalc -a year month day [-|+] n
datecalc -d year month day
datecalc -D year month day
datecalc -j year month day
datecalc -j n
datecalc -l year month
use \"datecalc -help\" use for more documentation"

DOCUMENTATION="\
datecalc Version 1.1

datecalc does many manipulations with dates.
datecalc -a is for date arithmetic
datecalc -d or -D converts a date to the day of week
datecalc -j converts to date to or from julian day
datecalc -l outputs the last day of a month

All dates must be between the years 1860 and 3999.

datecalc -a followed by 7 parameters will calculate the
number of days between two dates. Parameters 2-4 and 6-8
must be dates in ymd form, and parameter 5 must be a minus
sign. The output is an integer. Example:

> datecalc -a 1960 12 31 - 1922 2 2
14212


datecalc -a followed by 5 parameters will calculate the
a new date offset from a given date, Parameters 2-4 must
be a date in ymd form, paramter 5 must be + or -, and
paramter 6 must be an integer. Output is a new date.
Example:

> datecalc -a 1960 12 31 + 7
1961 1 7


datecalc -d followed by 3 parameters will convert a date
to a day-of-week. Parameters 2-4 must be a date in ymd
form. Example:

> datecalc -d 1960 12 31
6


datecalc -D is like -d except it displays the name of
the day. Example:

> datecalc -D 1960 12 31
Saturday


datecalc -j followed by 3 parameters will convert a date
to Modified Julian Day number. Example:
> datecalc -j 1960 12 31
37299


datecalc -j followed by a single parameter will convert
a Modified Julian Day number to a date. Example:
> datecalc -j 37299
1960 12 31


datecalc -l followed by year and month will output the last
day of that month. Note that by checking the last day of
February you can test for leap year. Example:
> datecalc -l 2002 2
28"

Another way would be:

Code:

#!/usr/bin/ksh
RET=`sqlplus -silent rep/Ndk38f7@dw <<END
set pagesize 0 feedback off verify off heading off echo off
select decode(d1,d2,'No rows',to_char(d1)||' '||to_char(d2)) from
(select trunc(max(chg_dt)) d1 from NOT_SCHEDULED_INSTALL),
(select trunc(sysdate) d2 from dual);
exit;
END`
if [[ "$RET" = "No rows" ]] ; then
   # do something
else
  # do something else
fi

Let the Oracles decode-function compares for you.

I need a little change in this script.

I need when the date is less then sysdate it sleep for 1 houre otherwise it run my abc.sh script.

thanks
