Oracle has provided the “catcon.pl” perl script as a method to execute SQL scripts in a single container or all containers.

In the example below I used “catcon.pl” script to perform the “count.sql” script and install JAVA component from the “$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin” drectory.

$ $ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin/perl $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catcon.pl -u SYS/xxxxx -d /home/oracle/scripts -l /home/oracle/scripts/logs -b script_output count.sql
catcon: ALL catcon-related output will be written to /home/oracle/scripts/logs/script_output_catcon_59455.lst
catcon: See /home/oracle/scripts/logs/script_output*.log files for output generated by scripts
catcon: See /home/oracle/scripts/logs/script_output_*.lst files for spool files, if any
catcon.pl: completed successfully
$ ls -litra

Install JAVA component only in PDBCAT_DEV

$ORACLE_HOME/perl/bin/perl $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catcon.pl -u SYS/xxxxx -n 8 -c 'PDBCAT_DEV' -e -b jvminstall.log $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/install/initjvm.sql

Validate installation

select comp_name, status, substr(version,1,10) as version from dba_registry where comp_name like '%JAVA%';
select object_name, object_type, status from dba_objects where status != 'VALID' order by object_type,object_name;

@?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql

Oracle shows the following arguments available to “catcon.pl” [1]:
