Not to my knowledge.

Our .profile for Oracle account uses oracle supplied 'oraenv' to set up appropriate environment using defined aliases. We have 20 databases on our test server (7.3 -> 9.2). One profile for oracle id. But, we source an 'alias' file for the server in the .profile file: . .hptest.alias

File .hptest.alias contains:

#Add Database name here using the following format alias TBS='export ORACLE_SID=TBST; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'

alias PRMT='export ORACLE_SID=PRMT; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias PRMX='export ORACLE_SID=PRMX; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias VP1D='export ORACLE_SID=VP1D; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv; cd /u01/home/oracle/admin/VP1D;'
alias SDSD='export ORACLE_SID=SDSD; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias SDST='export ORACLE_SID=SDST; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias SVRP='export ORACLE_SID=SVRP; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias SVRT='export ORACLE_SID=SVRT; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias IDSU='export ORACLE_SID=IDSU; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'
alias IWVT='export ORACLE_SID=IWVT; export ORAENV_ASK="NO";. oraenv;'

........

When changing environment for a given SID, we just type the SID name, and get the right environment set. ORACLE_SID is part of the UNIX prompt as well..

HTH,

List,

Does Oracle provide default environment setup scripts. Like dbshut and dbstart? Has anybody ever heard of ORACLE_PROFILE? I am trying to set up 9i and 8i on the same box.

Tthanks,

David Ehresmann
