Thanks, Mark.

Yes, I also didn't have to deal with this issue,
setting limits high enough ... until last week that
is, when this question came up.

Putting osh as a shell to execute the rest of the
scripts sounds like a clever idea (although you
probably meant $ORACLE_HOME/bin/osh, not
/usr/local/bin/osh - or did you mean coping osh from
$OH to there? And with two homes it doesn't matter
which osh to use?), but ... it doesn't seem to work.
Simple test:

#!/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/osh

date  # never see results of this line, gets stuck

Thanks,
Boris Dali.
