Hi Jared,

A few things we use Perl for:

• watchfs.pl

This thing monitors db related file systems and alerts (via our NOC) if thresholds are exceeded. Thresholds managed in dynamic config file.

• process_ora_trace.pl

A one off that helped us w/a vendor. Takes trace output files for a database
(ie: entire db in trace mode), scans through em', figures out who's executing
what (uid) and lists the SQL statements by user.

• watchdbms.pl

Daemon checking database services

• check_dbup.pl

Tool used by our Unix gang in outages when they restart nodes and need to verify
database services.

• baseline_main.pl (and various sub-programs)

Performance tool that works on deltas (ie: run it once to capture beginning stats
and again for end stats. Similar in concept to utlestat/bstat). Nitty gritty
detail down to waits, latches, buffer pools, blah blah. Output is in html w/a
table of contents. Very handy. Delta info stored into a repository instance.

• dbmonitor.pl

Takes capacity stats captured by a ksh script (using dbms_space) and creates html
tables showing growth for objects and at tablespace level.

ksh is cool and we have tons of structured scripts for all else we need - but
Perl is just so much more fun.

HTH, Casey ...
