This document reviews scripts found in all IODP data TRANSFER schemas. An overview of DBA scripts found on the OEM (Oracle Enterprise Manager) NSF NFS shares is also provided--these scripts are used to perform a variety of bulk database management tasks.

TRANSFER schema procedures

All of these scripts were designed to be executed with TRANSFER schema owner privileges--operating within a given database instance and its web of application-specific permissions and configurations.

BOX script

These scripts assist in automating shipboard beginning of expedition (BOX) database preparations.

Container load script

One of the shipboard systems (moisture and density) requires data for pre-weighed containers. This script aids in loading content from an Excel file into the shipboard LIMS.

CLHistory. These scripts were once routinely

Data copy script - formerly applied for EOX ETL

These COPY_* scripts were (routinely) applied by shipboard developers to prepare a copy of expedition data for transport to shore via an export of the TRANSFER schema. These EOX activities have been droppedThis EOX activity no longer occurs (since Dec 2022, Exp 398). Prior to Dec 2022 the scripts were named as-shown, but without the COPY_ prefix.

The scripts are retained as they for occasional use. They provide a semi-automated means for aggregating an expedition's data for transport into a test environment via the supporting tables in the TRANSFER schemas.

Data cleaning and preening--between ETL activities

These scripts automate occasional data cleaning activities.

UTIL_LIMS_TEST_RESULT_DELETE

Implements Shore EOX ETL

This script merges content staged (and modified) at the TRANSFER schema into the LIMS warehouse.

EOX_SHORE_MERGE_TRANSFER_NEW_TO_LIMS

iRIS

No merge scripting is in place for IRIS data. Direct imports are taken from export files to the OPS schema for tables RIS_CONFIGURATION, RIS_EVENT, and RIS_DATA.

OVERVIEW script

These scripts support the computation of summary data presented by the database OVERVIEW application. Each script summarizes a different kind of data. The scripts were revised to log activity and progress to TRANSFER.LOG. Formerly the DBMS_OUTPUT package was used. Current usage is more transparent. The log content provides a resource for process auditability.

Database management scripts

The OEM (Oracle Enterprise Manager) hosts on shore and ship host an NSF mount point used by each ODA (Oracle Data Appliance). As the mount point is read-write to all ODAs, it is a convenient space to store scripts for DBA operations.

Scripts used for a variety of database management purposes may be found here and in underlying subdirectories: /backup/scripts, .

The script sets named for an expedition indicate collections of work done to complete the shore side of EOX merges of ship data into shore: /backup/scripts/rci_work. The /exp folder is the generic and parameterized template that is carried forward.

EOX load and merge - rci_work/exp

The collection of scripts in this location is was used to automate the shore components of EOX processing: retrieve last expedition content from the database dump, create and apply moratorium supports, merge the data into production; provide statistics which give quality assurance/quality control on the process. Excepting import_transfer.ksh, in_moratorium.ksh, and crt_user_exp.ksh--all other scripts are considered legacy examples of OS automation for database processes.

These are the scripts (in-order) that are typically used
