Where does output file go?

tbhluehornOct 25 2016 — edited Nov 5 2017

Hello,

I am trying to use the script from the following post from another site. https://flashdba.com/database/useful-scripts/awr-generator/

Script generates an output file in sql format.   That sql I think has the code to generate an AWR.

I have no clue how output files work or where they go. Can someone let me know how I can view the SQL script that is generated by the script i posted below.

REM AWR-Generator.sql: Script for creating multiple consecutive Oracle AWR Reports

REM

REM Creates an output SQL script which, when run, will generate all AWR Reports

REM between the specificed start and end snapshot IDs, for all instances

REM

REM For educational purposes only - no warranty is provided

REM Test thoroughly - use at your own risk

REM

set feedback off

set echo off

set verify off

set timing off

-- Set AWR_FORMAT to "text" or "html"

define AWR_FORMAT = 'text'

define DEFAULT_OUTPUT_FILENAME = 'awr-generate.sql'

define NO_ADDM = 0

-- Get values for dbid and inst_num before calling awrinput.sql

set echo off heading on

column inst_num heading "Inst Num" new_value inst_num format 99999;

column inst_name heading "Instance" new_value inst_name format a12;

column db_name heading "DB Name" new_value db_name format a12;
