RE: Unix question
Hi, You can use the grep command in the following manner: grep -v try filename The option -v negates the search pattern, meaning rows which do not have a try string in them. The string can be enclosed in double quotes as well, this is useful if you are searching for multiple patterns... Hope this will help.

Re: unix question
Something our Unix admins tend to do is move the files along different directories. E.g. they start in dir1; after succesfull backup, move them to dir2, etc. and after succesfull backup in dir4 delete them. So they should always get backed up 4 times even if you miss a run. Of course your backup needs to start in dir4 and work back to dir1 for obvious reasons. mvg/regards Jo [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/19/2003 21:20 Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject:unix question I want to store some files.

RE: unix question
The following statement will delete all files older than 5 days:
find . -name 'files_you_want_to_delete*.log' -mtime +5 -exec rm {} \;
To test it, change the name of the file name and change the 'rm' to
'ls'.
It should just list the files older than 5 days. That way you know it
is working.

off-topic -UNIX question
Hello all, I get a process id by calling getProcessId()..I want to know from program whether that processId exists. Any way to find out how ? Thanks and regards, Santosh
Re: off-topic -UNIX question
Hello
Processes can test the validity of PID's by signalling the PID
with a ZERO signal number. To signal the process you use the
kill() system call. When a zero signal number is used error checking
is done but no signal is sent so that you don't have to worry
about what the process is going to do with a untrapped or
ill-defined interrupt handler
eg.
#include stdio.h
#include signal.h
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int pidno = atoi(argv[1]);
if(kill(pidno,0) == 0)
printf(pid number %d exists\n,pidno);
else
printf(pid number %d does not exist (or does not belong to
you)\n,pidno);
exit(0);
}
The above code will check the pid passed as the first command
line argument to the program. Note that you can't signal arbitrary
processes unless you are the superuser or the process is owned by
your userid.

Re: off-topic -UNIX question
-- Santosh Varma [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello all, I get a process id by calling getProcessId()..I want to know from program whether that processId exists. Any way to find out how ? Depends on the O/s.

Re: off-topic -UNIX question
hello
hey - this is a great and really comprehensive explanation.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/03/02 14:36 PM
Hello
Processes can test the validity of PID's by signalling the PID
with a ZERO signal number. To signal the process you use the
kill() system call. When a zero signal number is used error checking
is done but no signal is sent so that you don't have to worry
about what the process is going to do with a untrapped or
ill-defined interrupt handler
eg.
#include stdio.h
#include signal.h
main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int pidno = atoi(argv[1]);
if(kill(pidno,0) == 0)
printf(pid number %d exists\n,pidno);
else
printf(pid number %d does not exist (or does not belong to
you)\n,pidno);
exit(0);
}
The above code will check the pid passed as the first command
line argument to the program. Note that you can't signal arbitrary
processes unless you are the superuser or the process is owned by
your userid.

basic Unix question ???
Hi all, I have two questions. First, how to find out information about my unix box, like version, etc. In my box, I can use hostname to get the machine name. I remember there is a command called version, but I got Ksh: version: not found. Any other useful commands to know about my machine? Actually when I use top, it also returns ksh: top: not found. My second question is where does ksh usually reside, which value should I set for PATH. Thank you in advance. Janet __ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

OT: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt
OK, not to start a war, but those of us that have worked on both Unix and VMS know (or should know) that there are significant advantages (and therefore, disadvantages) to each. For example: Advantages VMS -- User administration Queuing system for print/batch/server/custom. Flexible object security with or without ACLs. Error messages. Asynchronous system traps. DCL's structure Logicals! Stability Ability to enable user and process specific resource quotas. Unix --- Speed, speed, speed No-or-low-cost software RAID 1 and 0. Choice of shell or shells (flexibility) Numerous addons available for everything Stability Disadvantages VMS --- Proprietary (one vendor) Percieved lack of available software Inability of non-VMS types to properly or optimally program on VMS (see Oracle's DCL procedures and hokey setup). Slower I/O than Tru64 on same hardware. Software RAID 1 and 0 is a cost option. DCL's structure (!) Unix --- Many shell commands are inconsistent (e.g output from ls and grep) Lack of flexibility in object security without using ACLs (e.g. no delete bit in file access) User management Queuing Generic error messages That's just my take on it. I started working with VMS around 4.5 back in '87/'88. I now work mostly with HP/UX 11.0. I like Unix, but I do sorely miss the overall structure and consistency of VMS. I don't buy the the rest of us are on *NIX argument, either. Everyone else is on Windows and that sorry excuse can't hold a candle to a real server OS. /flame: off -- run for cover :) Rich Jesse System/Database Administrator [EMAIL PROTECTED] Quad/Tech International, Sussex, WI USA -Original Message- From: Steven Lembark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 12:44 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: RE: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt -- Jesse, Rich [EMAIL PROTECTED] Starting in VMS 7.0 or 7.1 (I forget which), you *can* use pipes: $ GREP := SEARCH SYS$PIPE $ PIPE SHOW SYSTEM | GREP ora_ And it gets even better with SET PROCESS/PARSE=EXTENDED on the Alphas... :) Uncle Kenny's ghost can enjoy them; the rest of us are on *NIX :-) -- Steven Lembark 2930 W.

Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt
Title: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt Hi! In my .profile of the oracle user (we're mostly using ksh here), I have set up the prompt that it gives me the host name and database SID. # always displays host name and Oracle SID as prompt PS1=`hostname`;`echo $ORACLE_SID`$ How can I extend this prompt to also include the current directory that I'm in? e.g. prod1;PCLDB1; u010/app/oracle/admin/PCLDB1 Thanks, Helmut
Re: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt

Hi!
In my .profile of the oracle user (we're mostly using ksh here), I have
set up the prompt that it gives me the host name and database SID.
# always displays host name and Oracle SID as prompt
PS1=`hostname`;`echo $ORACLE_SID`$
How can I extend this prompt to also include the current directory that
I'm in?
e.g. prod1;PCLDB1; u010/app/oracle/admin/PCLDB1
Back-ticks can be a pain to track, the $() notation in
ksh makes things a bit less error prone. Also, no need
to echo a variable via shell execution if it is available
in the current proc:
PS1=$(hostname):$ORACLE_SID:\$PWD \$ ;
will give you the full path or
PS1=$(hostname:$ORACLE_SID:./\${PWD##*/} \$ ;
will give you the relative path (i.e., $PWD stripped of
any text leading to a '/').
This is equivalent to bash's:
PS1='\h:$ORACLE_SID:\W \$ ';

Re: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt
Title: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt
Put $PWD in there somewhere. I use
${PWD#${PWD%%*([!/])/*([!/])}} to display the last two directory levels, so my
prompt never gets TOO long.
The substring extractionof $PWD is ksh
specific. You could do it other ways, but this way it uses ksh builtins, so it
is _fast_
As an example, when I am in my $ORACLE_HOME, my
prompt ends up looking something like:
product/8.1.7 [09:54:42 AM] 181$
where 181 is the current command history
number.

Also be aware that when using backticks in your PS1 variable, you are
influencing $? as a result.
What happens, is that when you run a command (i.e. rm
some_file_that_doesnt_exist) and then say echo $?, you are getting the
return code ($?) of your PS1 execution (which is likely to always be 0) -
NOT the $? of the rm command.

Jared Writes:

I don't find that to be true with pdksh - PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
That would be because in your example, PS1 is only being affected when you
actually do a 'cd'
In my case, (and I think that of the original poster), PS1 is being
specified in the main body of my bash/ksh rc file, in which case it is
evaluated every time you do any/every command.
Your example is certainly more efficient, in that your the PATH information
is only updated when your current directory is likely to have changed, but I
actually echo every command's $? onto my prompt. i.e my prompt looks like:
RC(1) azimuth:.../last_2/path_components$
Actually, I had to create a function to do this, so that $? was properly
returned.
function _cd {
typeset saverc=$?
typeset _path=`echo $PWD | sed
'/\/.*\/.*\//{s%.*/\(.*/.*\)%.../\1%;}' `
echo RC($saverc) $HOST:$_path\$
return $saverc
}
PS1='`_cd`'
Otherwise if you are simply setting PS1 with backticks in the main() of your
rc file, then your $? is hosed.
At least as far as I've experienced
Thanks
David

Jared Writes:

I don't find that to be true with pdksh - PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
That would be because in your example, PS1 is only being affected when you
actually do a 'cd'
In my case, (and I think that of the original poster), PS1 is being
specified in the main body of my bash/ksh rc file, in which case it is
evaluated every time you do any/every command.
Your example is certainly more efficient, in that your the PATH
information
is only updated when your current directory is likely to have changed, but
I
actually echo every command's $? onto my prompt. i.e my prompt looks like:
RC(1) azimuth:.../last_2/path_components$
Actually, I had to create a function to do this, so that $? was properly
returned.
function _cd {
typeset saverc=$?
typeset _path=`echo $PWD | sed
'/\/.*\/.*\//{s%.*/\(.*/.*\)%.../\1%;}' `
echo RC($saverc) $HOST:$_path\$
return $saverc
}
PS1='`_cd`'
Otherwise if you are simply setting PS1 with backticks in the main() of
your
rc file, then your $? is hosed.
At least as far as I've experienced
Thanks
David

RE: Unix question: how to display SID and path in prompt
-- John Kanagaraj [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mladen, Are you confusing this on account of your new-found attraction to the 'go' command in MS SQL Server (formerly Sybase and T-SQL)? :-) I though that 'SET DEFAULT [Dir-name]' was the equivalent of 'cd' in VMS... They have nothing whatsoever to do with each other, mainly becuase VMS doesn't really have the same notion of working directory that *NIX does. set def can accept a partial path (e.g., 'dka0:', '[sys.foobar]', or 'dka0:[sys.foobar].exe'). It takes whatever you give it as a default for commands which require a filename and uses them as the default portion of the name if one is not given (e.g., del myfile would take the device, dir extension from the default). You can be working on dka100: and perform a set def dka0: without effecting the O/S treatment of dka0: -- the items given to set def needn't even exist since they are not used until the next time a path is given without that portion (e.g., you can put in a bogus device w/ valid directory and not know it until you forget to type the device). cd actually changes the O/S' view of your process and the destination path you give it. Performing a cd across file systems, for example, will leave the new one unable to umount; on VMS it wouldn't effect anything. You also cannot cd to a nonexistant directory. The two commands feel the same syntatically because you normally use relative paths after performing them; but the O/S' treatments are entirely different. enjoi. -- Steven Lembark 2930 W.

I'm not sure on the Unix side, but that Windows command will fire the copy off in a separate window and immediately return command to sqlplus, whilst the copying is still occurring. eg, consider the different behaviour of the following 2 commands under Windows SQLPlus: SQL host start cmd /c pause SQL host pause For Unix, Would you need to get the job to run in the background (via a maybe) to achieve the same effect?

RE: Unix question
Afternoon Roland, Just a couple of hints here. Firstly: Any command that returns an error can be checked for and you can also exit with a code of your choice. so #!/bin/sh export MAILDBA=[EMAIL PROTECTED] sqlplus -s konto/icakort ! set heading off verify off feedback off termout off pages 0 begin konto.fillbilbotables.anrop; END; / if [ $? -ne 0 ] then mail -s Konto inte so brar... \ $MAILDBA EOF Tita konto ..

Re: Unix question
Roland. Be carefull when issuing command to execute something in Unix. It is unforgiving and will execute the matching command that it first finds in it's path. As an example: the PATH=fo1;of2;of3 and there is a command called fobar.sh in both of1 and of3. You want the execute the fobar.sh that resides in of3. If you are at / and issue fobar.sh it will execute the one in of1 not of3. It is best to issue the full path such as ./of3/fobar.sh or be in the directory where your fobar.sh resides and then issue ./fobar.sh. ROR mª¿ªm [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/11/02 08:40AM Also, either the directory needs to be in your PATH, or you need to execute it while within that directory by typing ./loadfiles.sh or, you need to specify the full path when executing the script. -Joe At 04:50 AM 1/11/02 -0800, you wrote: Check the first line in the script so that Received: from CONNECT-MTA by galottethe path to the shell is correct. example: #!/bin/sh and maybe check the permissions on the file. /Patrik Malinen On Fri, 11 Jan 2002 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hallo, why do I get the error message No such file or directory. when I try to run unix script loadfiles.sh which is located in the directory /konto/tmp.

RE: Unix question
I agree and just to add, use environment variables for your paths or better yet, create an environment script that gets sourced by each script. This way you only need to update one environment script when the environment changes. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 01/11/02 10:40AM Off the top of my head, I am thinking that the current directory is not in your path. That is not an unusual thing. Specify the whole filename when executing it (including the path).

A file containing a shell script has to be readable by the user that executes it. Only x doesn't work. If that doesn't do it for you, there are other options: You could replace your shell script with a perl script (there is a converter that converts awk and sed to perl). If your shell script uses alot of unix tools, you can convert it by hand to perl's system and exec commands. Might be alot of work, though. The final option is to use C (system()) instead of shell scripts. But to convert shell scripts into C is more than contra-productive ;) By the way, what is the reason for not letting others with the correct privileges reading the scripts ? | Regards, | | Stefan Jahnke | | @:D2 Vodafone, Abt.: FBOM | -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Stefan Jahnke INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

Off Topic Unix question
One of co-workers is going to upgrade from Solaris 2.6 to 2.7(version 7). The question they had is what patch cluster to apply the below web site has 7 x86(21.7m) and 7 (39.8m). Which one to apply? "Rick I was looking at http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access and wondering what the x86 is referring to. I am interested in the patches for Solaris 7 and wanted to be sure that I am looking at the correct patch cluster. Steve" Thanks Rick Cale, Science Applications International Corp.

Re: Off Topic Unix question
Hi Rick, x86 refers to the Solaris for Intel version. There are slightly different patches for this version. Assuming you are running on SPARC, you want the non-x86 version.

RE: Unix question
For single character replacement (or removal) use "tr". For string to string replacement use sed.
echo $var | tr "e" "o"
-or-
echo $var | sed "s/e/o/g"# (the '/g' means globally)

Hi geeks ,
How can I do substr and instr kind of operaion in unix shell script . is it possible ?
like i have one paramter as "hostname" .. I want to trim quotes surrounding the hostname .
One more question , is possible to read another text file line by line using a shel script and then edit that file .
Actually I have this configuration file for my system which have keywords like $HOSTNAME$ , $SCHEMA$ which I want to replace with actual values at the time of installation by asking questions to the user.
TIA

Re: Unix question
Yes no. There are a couple of different way to solve the problem. 1) Write your own functions/filters to accomplish the desired operations 2) If the only place in the file where double quote marks exists are around the hostname and all you want to do is get rid of them, the "tr" command could be used. 3) Unix scripts can accept command line arguments which are positionally dependant so you could create a master script which would look like the following driver.sh host1 schemaA driver.sh host2 schemaB driver.sh host9 schemaG etc... The inside driver.sh where you want the hostname to appear place a $1 The inside driver.sh where you want the schema to appear place a $2 HTH YMMV!

Re: Unix question
No No . Here is full problem I have this ini file called xyz.ini having hostname = $HOSTNAME$.acme.com schemaname=$SCHEMANAME$ domainname= $HOSTNAME$.foo.bar.com okay , Now I am getting the values of hosname as "abc" , schema name as "schem" . I want to write a script in which I will pass these parameters and they will do a search and replace kindof operation. I was thinking of using sed , but how to get rid of quotes because my $1 is "abc" so after replacement file will become hostname = "abc".acme.com schemaname="schem" domainname= "abc".foo.bar.com while I want it to be like hostname = abc.acme.com schemaname=schem domainname= abc.foo.bar.com - Big Planet - Original Message - From: Charlie Mengler To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Friday, March 23, 2001 8:45 PM Subject: Re: Unix question Yes no.
