How to change an Oracle instance parameter based on database version and container type

Here is a simple pl/sql script that will set parameters based on version and container type.

set serveroutput on
DECLARE

v_version     sys.v_$instance.version%type;
v_param_value sys.v_$system_parameter.value%type;
v_pdb boolean;
v_con_id number;
v_con_type varchar(7);

BEGIN

-- find current setting of optimizer_dynamic_sampling
select value
into   v_param_value
from   v$parameter
where  name = 'optimizer_dynamic_sampling';

-- find current(major) version
select version
into   v_version
from   sys.v_$instance;

-- find container type
select 
    case when (sys_context('USERENV','CON_ID') = 0 ) then 'NON-CDB' 
       when (sys_context('USERENV','CON_ID') = 1 ) then 'CDB'
       when (sys_context('USERENV','CON_ID') > 1 ) then 'PDB'
    end
into v_con_type
from DUAL;

--dbms_output.put_line('v_con_type: ' || v_con_type);
--dbms_output.put_line('version: ' || v_version);
--dbms_output.put_line('optimizer_dynamic_sampling: ' || v_param_value);

v_pdb := FALSE;

IF v_con_type = 'PDB' THEN
  v_pdb := TRUE;
ELSE
  v_pdb := FALSE;
END IF;


CASE WHEN v_version IN ('18.0.0.0.0','19.0.0.0.0') AND v_param_value = '0' THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('version is >= 18 and optimizer_dynamic_sampling = 0');
    
    IF v_pdb = FALSE THEN
      dbms_output.put_line('execute immediate alter system set optimizer_dynamic_sampling=4 scope=both;');
      execute immediate 'alter system set optimizer_dynamic_sampling=4 scope=both';
    ELSIF v_pdb = TRUE THEN
      dbms_output.put_line('execute immediate alter system set optimizer_dynamic_sampling=4 container=current scope=both;');
      execute immediate 'alter system set optimizer_dynamic_sampling=4 container=current scope=both';
    END IF;
    
WHEN v_version IN ('18.0.0.0.0','19.0.0.0.0') AND v_param_value <> '0' THEN   
     dbms_output.put_line('version is >= 18 and optimizer_dynamic_sampling is already set.');
ELSE
  dbms_output.put_line('version is < 18');
END CASE;

END;
