Automatically emailing tuning advice

In any UNIX platform, it's very easy to automate the e-mailing of output from A SQL script. All you need to do is encapsulate the SQL in a shell script, and then use cron utility to automatically generate and email the output.

Sample shell script that generates and sends automatic SQL tuning advice. we will use Oracle's DBMS_AUTO_SQLTUNE.REPORT_AUTO_TUNING_TASK procedure to generate tuning advise.

#!bin/bash
 if [ $# -ne 1 ]; then
 echo "Usage: $0 SID"
 exit 1
fi
# source oracle OS variables
BOX=`uname -a |awk '{print $2}'`
outfile=$HOME/bin/log/sqladvice.txt
#
sqlplus -s <<EOF
dbaref/dbaref
SPO $outfile

set linesize 80 pagesize 0 long 100000
select DBMS_AUTO_SQLTUNE.REPORT_AUTO_TUNING_TASK from dual;
EOF
cat $outfile | mailx -s "SQL Advice :$1 $BOX" snojha@gmail.com
exit 0


You can put this script in CRON to run this script on a daily basis
