Re: PART II: - Beyond a basic Oracle EXP/IMP shell script: Error Handling & Exit Status?



There's a million ways to do what you're wanting to do. Here's some cutesy things I do within bash scripts.... $? is your friend.

BCVStatus=0
/opt/emc/WideSky/V5.3.0/bin/symmir -g DBNAME verify DB1-DBNAME BCV ld BCV-DBNAME -synched > /dev/null 2>&1
BCVStatus=$?
until [ "$BCVStatus" = 0 ]
do
sleep 5;
/opt/emc/WideSky/V5.3.0/bin/symmir -g DBNAME verify DB1-DBNAME BCV ld BCV-DBNAME -synched > /dev/null 2>&1
BCVStatus=$?;
done






Copious output for reading cron output after getting to the office...

echo "`/bin/date +%H:%M:%S` Export D_S tables"
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/exp / file=/e07/oracle/export/exp_das_$TSTAMP.dmp TABLES=BLAH1,BLAH2 LOG=/d02/app/oracle/admin/DBNAME/adhoc/logs/exp_das_$TSTAMP.log
STATUS=$?
if [ $STATUS -gt 0 ]; then
echo "*** Export encountered errors - errorlevel $STATUS"
echo "*** Export encountered errors - errorlevel $STATUS" | /usr/ucb/mail -s "DBNAME refresh failed: Export D_S encountered errors" dba@xxxxxxxx
exit 1
fi
echo "`/bin/date +%H:%M:%S` Export D_S tables complete"





hope this helps
