Hi,

one of my scripts generates several log files via SPOOL.
At the end of the process, all of these are combined via

host copy log1.tmp+log2.tmp+log3.tmp all.log

Unfortunately, on some customers systems that "copy" works, and
on some it doesn't. Oracles SQLPlus handbooks state that availability
of this command can be configured by the DBA, but searching the
online help for "host" doesn't help much :)

How do i check if "host" will work, and enable it (with DBA rights)
if necessary?
