Manivannan,

I would still put into your script (shutdown.sh) alongwith your ORACLE_SID variable etc. the following lines.

ORACLE_HOME=/absolute_path_name_of Oracle_home export ORACLE_HOME
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export PATH

Give it a try !!

Hi Gurus,

Posting again..

Actually the .profile runs thro okay.. But the svrmgrl command given in the shutdown script doesn't run.. It says svrmgrl - not found. I'm running the cron from the dba user. But still the environment is not set. What should I do??

thanks in advance,
Manivannan.M

Hi gurus,
Our database is running on Dynix in a Sequent machine. I tried to put the startup/shutdown script we use in crontab and schedule it.
I call a script shut.sh which in turn will call the shutdown.sh script. But it gives me an error saying svrmgrl- not found.  I've given here those scripts..
What am I missing??

This shut.sh is called by the cron

shut.sh



/data23/tbms/.profile
/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/dba/shutdown.sh   >/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/db
a/shut.log 2>/data21/app/oracle/admin/TBMS/dba/shut.err  

shutdown.sh


ORACLE_SID=TBMS
export ORACLE_SID
INITIAL_STATUS=`ps -ef|grep "ora_[a-z]*_TBMS"|wc -l` echo $INITIAL_STATUS
if [ $INITIAL_STATUS != 0 ]; then
  svrmgrl <<EOF
  connect internal
  alter system switch logfile;
  shutdown immediate;
  exit

EOF
  DB_STATUS=`ps -ef|grep "oracleTBMS"`
  if [ -n $DB_STATUS ]; then
    echo "Starting up the database in restrict mode"
    svrmgrl <<EOF
    connect internal
    startup  restrict;
    shutdown ;
    exit

EOF
    echo "Database TBMS shutdown"
  else  

  echo "Error in shutting down database"

    exit
  fi

else

  echo "Database is already shutdown..exiting"
  exit

fi
