In versions prior to 10.1.0.4 <http://10.1.0.4>, if I run following command echo password | sqlplus userid@db @my_script.sql the ps -ef command would show sqlplus userid@db @my_script.sql but not in 10.1.0.4 <http://10.1.0.4>. It only shows sqlplus. I have spent some time RTFM/STFM but no clues. Any ideas how to get the script name on the command like to show? Obviously this is Unix, AIX to be specific. No OS changes, only DB upgraded from 10.1.0.3 <http://10.1.0.3> to 10.1.0.4 <http://10.1.0.4> TIA Raj ------------------------------ select standard_disclaimer from company_requirements where category = 'MANDATORY';
