I would say that at the point you run svrmgrl then a further script should
be called which includes your Oracle environment variables and is called in
such fashion

As root user in original script
commands
commands etc....

Then at the point you need to use svrmgrl
su oracle -c /oracle/backup.sh

backup.sh should include environment variables
and the backup commands however you are doing it.

Hope this helps.

Are you using password files?
1) Check if some orapwSID file exists.
    if exists, then, internal user will always be required to authenticate
in order to login. (except that
    'dba' group is granted at os level.
2) Check $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/config.s file for some  string
like:
/* 0x0008         15 */         .ascii  "dba\0"

The 'dba' string indicates that group DBA must be asigned to the user that
will be used to connect as internal.
If other string is used, then, you must use that os group as DBA role, and
you must grant that
group at os level.

Hope it helps
