Any commends will be appreciated
Assuming some version of Oracle more recent than 9.2.0.8 you can not
monitor a database using shell/perl scripts any longer.

Anyone that claims otherwise doesn't understand the product.

What is the change in 9.2.0.8 makes it impossible?

I said "more recent than" and the list is nearly endless which
is precisely the point. You couldn't write all the scripts
required to duplicate the functionality of the OEM grid control
if you worked on it 40 hours a week for the next 6 months. In
fact some of that functionality is literally impossible to
duplicate with any shell script.

The original question was "should I invest in" and the answer is
yes.
