Re: Database credential location
Assuming you did a litteral text copy, then
cpipass
is a symbol; which can have just about any (text or numeric) value.
Before any further answers are possible, consider adding
$ show symbol cpipass
$ exit
to (a copy of) the DCL script.
Execute it. Maybe that will directly be your answer; otherwise post the (litteral!!) answer for more chance of getting what you want.
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Database credential location
DCL is the shell language used by OpenVMS.
Here is the link to the OpenVMS docs section on the DCL Data Dictionary that deals with the definitiof of symbolic names
http://h71000.www7.hp.com/doc/83final/9996/9996pro_25.html#index_x_11
If you look in the index, you should be able to find answers to most of your symbol related questions.
Regards
Patrick

Re: Database credential location
As was previously mentioned, "cpipass" used in this context, is a symbol.
In order for this DCL script to function, a value must be assigned to "cpipass" prior to the
sqlplus 'cpipass'@abc
command executing.
The assignment will normally look something like;
$ cpipass =
or
$ cpipass ==
If the assignment does not happen in your DCL Script, then the symbol is probably global. I would start by looking for a DCL Command file which contains the string
"cpipass" as part of an assignment. Note, these symbol values are often held as Logicals, so you might want to search the output from "Show Logical" for the string.
HTH

Re: Database credential location
Just add a $SHOW SYM CPI* in the very beginning and end of your LOGIN.COM and see whether it is defined before, or during.
If it is not in there (be sure check the COMMENT in those) then it is likely to be in a command file called/chained from there.
Look for the @ signs and files names like SETUP_ENVIRONMENT, _ENV_SETUP, ORACLE_INIT, ORACLE_SETUP, APPLICATION_COMMON, CPI_INIT, START_CPI, and such.
IF you have the pleasure of working in a somewhat security conscious environment, then you also have to look of an IMAGE executed during the LOGIN process which magically and secretly derives the password to be used and sticks it in the symbol.
Good luck!
