# I want to be able to extract all the oracleprod processes which are 3 days old and kill them. Are there other date functions or methods can I use? I can make a list of processes but how do I compare the date to kill those processes more than 3 days old. This problem [...]
There are two shell scripts. First one creates variable as: “export VAR1=init_value;” OR “declare -x; VAR1=init_value;” Second script can read this variable and modifies the variable’s value but after exiting the variable still keep original value. What is wrong?
