I'm not sure I really understand the OP's question, or what he's getting at. Some "vast Indian conspiricy"?

I have an iPhone 5 from India. I am going to USA for studying. Can I use the same iPhone over there or I will have to buy a new one?
If officially unlocked, you can purchase a sim from one of the two nationwide GSM carriers, AT&T or T-Mobile. However, AFAIK, none of the carriers in India offer unlocking for the iPhone. Thus, if your phone is carrier locked, the only way it will work in the US is roaming...that would cost a fortune.
So, if you have a carrier locked iPhone, leave it home or sell it before you come to the US, then purchase an officially unlocked iPhone, from Apple, when you get to the US. You'll be able to use that phone in India when you go back. -
Hello All,
Please don't mind my question if I have violated the purpose of the forum and if so then I am really sorry.
I have been working in Oracle Database Administration since almost 3.4 years. I have mostly worked on Dev-Test Platforms where we maintain zero downtime. I do not have any hands on RAC or much knowledge . I have worked on 10g,11g.
I know the concepts and methods of implementing Data guard (standby), I have worked on RMAN(duplication,incremental backup,complete/incomplete recovery and etc),expdp/impdp and exp/imp, little amount of scripting (SQL/Shell), basic Server management(mostly have exp on Linux), Installation of RDBMS/ASM, Creation of Databases(manually/DBCA), Security(privs,roles,auditing), Tablespace and other logical structure management, HOT backup,Cold backup(and restoration from it), Database upgradation,patching(PSU, one-off,inventory attach/detach), Tracing, SQL Loader, standby monitoring and creation, Database Monitoring and maintenance, segment management and defragmentation, Database object maintenance, Configuration of OEM etc, handling different types of Oracle errors including critical errors like 600,7445 etc... Reading and extracting AWR/ASH..
Can I get a job outside of my present company? As I am not seeing much growth there.. Not even getting to have exposure to other platforms.. Most of the companies want RAC personal.
Please suggest and help me (if possible).. I am really in tension about what will be there in my future as here I will never get to work in RAC and high availibility architecture ..
That is the reason now I am thinking to switch my company for better technological growth..
What areas should I know in this phase of my career. pls suggest.. I am from INDIA
-Regards
Struggling DBAWhether you will get another job is an entirely local matter. Ask a local recruiter how the job market is for DBAs. In my local area (in the US), it seems like there is a decent amount of demand for DBAs, but you might be working in a local economy that is stagnant.
Chances are, in 2013, that any new DBA job will involve some element of database redundancy.
Within a few years, I suspect that most places will have either RAC or Exadata systems for their critical databases. It'll probably take a significant outage before most companies will spend the cash for clustered systems, but they will eventually move that way. Even Oracle's Database Machine is a RAC configuration if you think about it - and that's what they're trying to pitch to the smaller customers.
I remember that about 10 years ago, RAC was rare (I remember installing RAC 9.2.0.1 for a client - boy, that was DIFFICULT). 'All' that you had to do to be a DBA then, was understand single-instance stuff.
Five years later, most DBAs needed to know RAC/ASM/Data Gurd if they wanted to be Production DBAs - they then had to understand single-instance, cluster, ASM and Data Guard stuff.
I can see that within a couple of years, DBAs will have to be competent in Exadata or similar - so they'll need to understand single-instance, cluster, ASM, Data Guard AND Exadata stuff (networking, storage cells, etc).
My point is that the DBA role changes as fast as any tech specialty. Thankfully, Oracle's is making things easier to administer as the technologies we have to master become more complex: I can vouch for how difficult 9.2.0.1 was to set up for RAC - managing an 11.2 system is SO much nicer!
Unless you're working in a place that have no plans to upgrade their databases (due to legacy systems) or to grow as a business, then the chances are you will eventually be exposed to what you're looking for. Of course, if you're working in such a place, then it might be suggested that you're better off finding somewhere else to work. To stand still is to roll backwards, etc....
Good luck. It's good to be ambitious, but don't forget that a DBA role is one that absolutely demands experience - if you've 3 years of being a Production DBA and having to get THAT call in the middle of the night, you've probably got better experience than someone who has spent 6 years as a Development DBA (IMO).

Hi All,
This Karnan, i have finished BCA(Computer Application) 2008, and i did oracle9i DBA OCP,
I was not able to get into Oracle DBA as a fresher.
Finally Nov-2009, i got job in POLARIS SOFTWARE LAB ltd., as Software Tester.
I'm very much passion about in Oracle, i want to be a DBA only,
Please any one guide me how to get entered in ORACLE DBA as a fresher,
or let me know if you know about companys whho's hiring freshers for oracle.
Thanks,
Karnan ThambiduraiWell, I am not sure that how does this question fits in the database general forum in any ways. If it should be posted( please note the "if") , the most suitable place would the Community discussion forum.
I am not from HR background so please take my advice with grain of salt. When you would be working as a contractor, there would be two ways for this thing. One , you own your company so all the payments , invoices would be on your own company's name. If that's so, no issues. You can always show those invoices. The other way , using which the contract work is done is that you are hired by company X but you end up working for company Y. So company Y doesn't give you anything but your company X is supposed to give you whatever paper work is needed. So see if this is your case.
Whatever the thing may be, the HR of the next company won't stick to the pay slip only provided you can prove that you worked and the money you got for that work was a legal, taxable amount. As long as you can prove that by whatevre kind of document, you are good. That said, you haven't yet started and you are thinking about leaving too! At least do the job first for some time before you care about what the next company's Hr would say since you can always ask them all of these doubts.
Again, please note that Iam not from HR , never was or will be so all what I said is purely based on what I know how things work but any of my words are not at all authoritative.

Which is the best training institute in india for oracle dba?
hi,
i am looking for good training institution in india to learn oracle dba
so pls can any one suggest me which institute providing the best training for this course
thank you in advanceuser12483593 wrote:

Goto [http://www.oracle.com/education] - choose Product Courses, Database and Grids:
(eg [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=14&p_org_id=1080544&lang=US])
In both cases ensure country selected on top right is India.
On the schedule choose courses with +100% Student Satisfaction+
It is hard, (though obviosly not impossible), for other institutions to better this standard of such courses.
If you are aspiring to Oracle DBA OCP be very sure the institute you are choosing satisifies the requirements for the Hands on Course, and do not take the institutes word for it but check.
It may well be that you are looking for institutions offering the WDP programme. This is a maximm of 6 hours/week over several weeks so IMHO is impractical if you do not live nearby. There appear to be comments that sometimes the training from these institutes doing the WDP course can be of very variable quality. Probably the only option here is to seek out the opinions of recent psat students you can trust. -

Hi All ,
I am struggling to find Jr Oracle DBA jobs in the current market . I have done my Masters here in US but I haven't been successful in finding a Jr Oracle DBA job here . I have around 1 yr of experience as a DBA . Can you please guide me into finding a suitable DBA job .
Advise is honestly appreciated.
Thanks!!!!!!!!I agree with Helio Dias' suggestion to seek out helping some non-profit organizations, but of course, that won't pay back your student loan or pay your rent.
You may consider applying yourself to the various staffing agencies (job shops). They have a myriad of job opportunities, and many of them specifically looking for Jr. DBAs. I know at our company, I personally had a posting for a Jr. DBA which we eventually filled through a staffing agency.
I don't see where you are from, but in our area, some of the more commonly known agencies are: TechUSA, TEAM, TAC, AeroTek, Maxim Group, NRI (Network Resources Inc.), SAIC, and countless others. Do a google search on staffing agencies <your town>.
Many of the jobs are temporary, but many of them are temp-to-perm. And don't discount the temporary jobs because you will learn a lot and gain a lot of diversified experience from them.
Good luck.

Well , you won't go for shopping when there are already guests in your home , will you? In case, that didn't make much sense, I meant that you won't start reading books, pdfs, looking at websites when you are going to have an interview already scheduled for you. I can bet my money( whatever little I have) that even doing this, won't bring you any good. If your question directly or indirectly is related to the questions that the interviewer may ask, once again, this would be a total wrong approach to go for an interview. In almost no time, it can be find out whether you are speaking some crammed line or from yourself. I had a chance to sit on the other side of the hot seat and the guy in front of me was giving all teh bookish answers. I twisted the questions and I was sure that he must have not read them anywhere, guess what happened. he started fumbling and finally gave up.
Interview is what you know, what you have done so far. Its not to start picking up LOTS of books, looking for the questions/answers and just think that the interview will happen from that only. I have some questions whose answers, at least the complete answers , you won't find anywhere. My suggestion is to just go for the interview, be honest about what you know and more about , what you don't know. You haven't committed a crime by not knowing some thing. I know nothing and I am never scared from the interviews ;-) .
Not sure that did help or not but still, best of luck.

Can not insert a row to a table from Oracle DBA Studio
Hi,
I try to use the Oracle DBA Studio to create a table and put some test data in it. Here is what I found:
I start Oracle DBA Studio on the client machine by connecting to an Oracle server 8i (8.1.7). I create a simple table called Test with two columns: one is USER, VARCHAR2, 10; and the other is USER2, CHAR, 2. After that, I right click on the table name and select "Table Data Editor" from the popup menu. The table editor window shows up. I type in the value 'AA' and 'BB' in the grid of two columns. Then I click the Apply button. An error message box popped up:
ORA-00928 missing SELECT keyword.
I click Show SQL button. The SQL statement is as following:
INSERT INTO "TASYS"."TEST" (USER ,USER2 ) VALUES ('AA' ,'BB').
I copy the statement to SQL Plus and run it. The same error is generated. But if I remove (USER, USER2) from the statement, it inserts a row without complaint. In other word, the database will not allow to insert if individual columns are list. I realize something must wrong with the new server and client installed and could not figure out what happening. Hope someone can help.
Thanks.
nullI am not sure, but could it be that USER is a keyword or predefine word. Check Oracle'slist of predefine/keyword
