Startup Script

[vg2511]

We have a startup script on one of our Solaris servers and it boots and shuts down our environment for one of our application using oracle.

This morning when the server was booted up, it did not start,

My Platform specialist says that it didn’t start because it is a KSH script instead of a SH startup script.

What are the changes need to comply with him.

Here is the script in question :

#!/bin/ksh
hostName=`/usr/ucb/hostname`

case $1 in
start)
case $hostName in
csdsolid)
. /appl/solid/test/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c 'nohup /appl/solid/test/cur/adm
in/bin/dbproc.boot ostl235' & > /tmp/dbproc_235`date +"%m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

psdev09)
. /appl/solid/test/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c 'nohup /appl/solid/test/cur/adm
in/bin/dbproc.boot opwk33' & > /tmp/dbproc_33`date +"%m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

fsp8015a|ssp8002a)
. /appl/solid/prod/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c 'nohup /appl/solid/prod/cur/adm
in/bin/dbproc.boot ofar15' & > /tmp/dbproc_15`date +"%m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

esac ;;

stop)
case $hostName in
csdsolid)
. /appl/solid/test/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c '/appl/solid/test/cur/admin/bin
/dbproc.shutdown ostl235' > /tmp/dbproc_235`date +"$m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

psdev09)
. /appl/solid/test/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c '/appl/solid/test/cur/admin/bin
/dbproc.shutdown opwk33' > /tmp/dbproc_33`date +"$m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

fsp8015a|ssp8002a)
. /appl/solid/prod/sdreport/.profile
su - sdreport -c '/appl/solid/prod/cur/admin/bin
/dbproc.shutdown ofar15' > /tmp/dbproc_15`date +"$m%d"`_err 2>&1 ;;

esac ;;

*)
echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/dbproc {start|stop}" ;;

esac

Thanks to all the nice samaritans.

What are the changes need to comply with him.

change:

#!/bin/ksh

to:

#!/sbin/sh

If this is the first time this has happened, and the script has worked perfectly well previously, I think I'd be asking my 'Platform specialist' to use his specialist skills to diagnose exactly why it didn't work.

Yep smells like bullcarp to me.

Try changing the line to #!/bin/ksh -x and run it from the command line and see if it works or not.
