I wanted to leave it blank if the hosts were different.
So I used the basis of your last suggestion like:
REQUIRE_SCHED_VARS="ORAENV_ASK=NO;ORACLE_SID=VMD1;export ORAENV_ASK
ORACLE_SID;SCHED_HOST=@SCHED_HOST_NAME@;. oraenv"
Not very pretty but I am restricted to autoconf 2.57 so had to set it up
like that.
And then dropped @REQUIRE_SCHED_VARS@ into my '.in' file
Much appreciated, thanks
Giles
