Hi,
Attached is a generated script of the database files if/when we want to run dbv = dbverify.
The script runs fine by itself but it does take awhile to finish. In a worse case scenario, it can take up to 7 hours to finish as the dbv runs serially.
I need help and guidance to somehow have some parallelism in terms of running the dbv. For instance, I want to at least have 5xdbv running at some point in time. So for a start, run 5 of these dbv's, and then 'monitor' in the background if some has finished, then start more dbv until there's 5xdbv running again and so on and so forth.
As there are several databases on the same server, I cannot simply ps -ef | grep dbv to check for the number of dbv commands running. That is, I may have two of these scripts that I want to run for two different databases. So the 5xdbv run is for each database. If there is two of these scripts then there should be 10xdbv running at one time, 5 for each database.
Not sure where or how to start
Any advice will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance. BTW, prefers something that I can use on both Solaris and Linux
P.S.:
Belated Merry Christmas, Happy New Year to All.
