Use the following command to execute host operating system commands.

HO[ST] [command]

Executes a host operating system command without leaving SQL*Plus.

Note: With some operating systems, you can use a "$" (VMS), "!" (UNIX) or another character instead of HOST. See the Oracle installation and user's manual(s) provided for your
operating system for details.
