How are you running the .profile??

Try to give full path of .profile file e.g.

. /u03/app/oracle/816/.profile

Here make sure that your .profile file doesn't call another shell (like ksh -o emacs).

Another alternative is to give the full path alongwith command name e.g.

/u03/app/oracle/816/bin/svrmgrl << !
connect internal
shutdown immediate
startup
shutdown normal
!

HTH,
Rajesh

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
