Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Unix scripting need help
I've been an Oracle DBA and developer for many years (more than 10) and I have also been a Unix Sys Admin (about 5 years). I am used to playing god with the server , where I am the DBA and the System Administrator. (Of course these days, a lot of companies and clients want a segregated environment , a separation of church and state , so to speak. The DBA cannot be the Sys Admin.)
I'm pretty good at writing scripts in Korn shell for Unix and Rexx in Windows NT/2000. As a matter of fact, I write most of the utility scripts for our group. I think it is part of the essential upbringing of the DBA to know how to use scripting languages. It makes life a lot easier and it is part of the job when running Oracle on a Unix platform. It is a necessary and expected skill to be able to use scripting languages. After all, SQL Plus is one.
So , show the love!
