I use perl to automate various Database Administration tasks for several
Oracle databases. With Oracle 9.x, to perform certain administrative tasks,
you must connect as sysdba. From sqlplus, the syntax is:
sqlplus "/@dbname as sysdba"
Does anybody know of a way to simulate this type of connect
You probably need to recompile your DBD module with your new Oracle client.

How long does it take to connect via sqlplus?

We are testing a new version of the Perl DBD linked with the new Oracle
9i client libraries. I have two Oracle.so files, one in
~/old_perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so
and one in
~/new_perl/lib/site_perl/5.6.1/sun4-solaris/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so.

If you're on Oracle, you can do:
SELECT nvl(max(some_item),0)
FROM db
WHERE item = 'something'
That will give you 0 if there are no "something" and will give you the
value.

For my particular beef, the -8 flag works when compiling the DBD module
as suggested below.

I agree, it should be fixed.

I am using perl 5.6.1 on Solaris 2.8. My DBI version is DBI-1.21 and my
DBD version is DBD-Oracle-1.12. My Oracle version is 8.1.7.2 and my
Oracle OCI version is 8.1.7.0.0.
I have setup a query that retrieves VARCHAR2(10) values from a table
into a bound variable. The values in the table a
