Good morning everyone,

I apologize for the OT post.

I was looking at the DBI. It suddenly occurred to me that I can only connect to sql*plus with this. I'm not minimizing it's usefulness, but I am wondering if I can use a perl script to fire off the rman backup, scan the log for errors, mail the log, etc. everything I used to do in ksh.

Any examples of a "host" type command or something that may possibly meet my needs would be greatly appreciated and rewarded by a virtual monkey beer :)

Thank you
