Are you a seasoned system administrator charged with
setting up an Oracle database? Or did you suddenly
become a DBA by default? Either way, this book will
guide you through the mysteries of Oracle and database
administration. Here are the nuts and bolts of creating an
Oracle database, implementing it, and keeping it running in
tiptop form.
• Build it — learn the building blocks behind the database engine
and understand Oracle’s physical and logical structures
• Prepare for takeoff — review the hardware, software, system,
and storage requirements for implementation
• Know your environment — recognize and accommodate the
differences between Oracle installations on Windows and on
Linux/UNIX
• Defend it — assess potential threats to your database, configure
Oracle Recovery Manager, and create backup and recovery
procedures
• Maintain it — know the daily and intermittent tasks necessary to
keep your database running properly
• Head off trouble — implement the system troubleshooting
methodology, use Oracle database logs, and explore other
diagnostic utilities
• Manage it — monitor with Oracle Enterprise Manager
