Yes I did this as well, using vbscript, and using korn-shell/awk (easier).

From your unix box, create a password function, that returns you password. Then you can reuse it in any script.

Remember also that your script will have to 'branch' for SYS as it connects 'as sysdba', or the other option depending on which user is running the script, not to have a password for sys at all. '/ as sysdba'.

Why not just pass in the username as the parameter

Script sys

$1 is then sys (or whatever username you want to pass in)

Hi,

My idea for your question
Can't you use:
echo $usr

My idea for a sligthly different approach:

I would not define all the variables in the script itself. If it was up to me I would create a "config-file" which looks like: <sid1>:<user-to-login-with1>:<password-for-this-user1> <sid2>:<user-to-login-with2>:<password-for-this-user2>

...
...
...

Then in your script loop through the config-file. With awk you can get alle the variables you need for connecting

Best Regards,
Martijn Bos

Login needs to be chosen based on parameter passed so if the parameter passed is 1 it needs to choose user1 and so on. I will be doing sqlplus $usr_at_$DB and need usr to have the value sys in this case and so on
