Re: NT questions

Hi you have a couple of choices for the first problem. You could install cygwin on the NT server and then you could use the shell script to do the work or alternatively install Perl and recode the script in Perl and it would be useable on either platform.

Yes the last number is a platform specific patch. There may be reasons that different systems are patched differently. It may be that one system exhibited a bug relevant to the package the server supports but due to different things the other servers do not have that issue. It might not be a good thing to just patch the other systems without investigating further the purpose of those patches. It is possible you could break something else

Cheers

Hi dear Listers,

I have 2 NT questions like to ask;

1.On unix, I use the following script to change the name of alert file.
How to change it in the same way on NT?

for log_file in $(find $ORACLE_BASE/admin -name "alert_FMRPT.log" | grep
-v alert_FMRPT_.*.log)
do
   newfile=$(echo $log_file | sed "s/\.log$/_$dt.log/")
   echo "moving alert logs: $log_file $newfile"
   mv $log_file $newfile

2. I remember read somewhere about oracle version, for example,
8.1.7.2.x , the last digit is OS related informantion. Is that true? Our
nt boxes, some instance show it is 8.1.7.2.1, some shows 8.1.7.2.6. I'd
like to make all the same version. Where I can get those patch
information? (On unix, all our instances are 8.1.7.2.0, we installed and
patched. Not on NT. kind of out of control at beginning)

Thanks in advance, 

Joan
