Abstract
From the Publisher:
The Oracle database administrator (DBA) performs a vitally important set of tasks at an Oracle site: database monitoring, backup and recovery, troubleshooting, and tuning for reliability and performance. The DBA also plays a role in initial database design, system configuration, installation, and security planning. This book provides a quick reference to the myriad details an Oracle DBA needs on a day-to-day basis to help do his or her job well.
Part I (Chapters 1 to 7) of this book provides essential information and examples of how to perform a variety of critical DBA functions. The information in this section is presented in roughly the same sequence that these functions would be performed as the DBA plans and implements a new Oracle installation.
Part II (Chapters 8 to 17) provides detailed reference information (command syntax, etc.) needed to perform DBA functions.
This is a book for DBAs, written by DBAs the single, definitive reference book of choice. If you must choose only one book to use at the office, to have at home, and to carry to a site you are troubleshooting, this will be that book.
