10g DBA Publications

I was wondering if anyone had some recommendations for great hands on 10g DBA books out there? Even better 10g on Linux.

All 10g docs:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=3
10g DBA Handbook and Linux Administration (Oracle Press) would be a good start.
This may help also:

Good, concise dba handbook

I have been tasked with administering and monitoring a single database server with several users. This is a good move for me, however, I need help. I need a good and concise Oracle 10g DBA handbook. Preferably something that lists and describes ALTER USER commands and day-to-day sql commands. I also need help with the day-to-day tasks of administering this database.
Thank you.

You can pretty much find everything you need from

Guidance to become a Oracle 10g DBA

Hai...
I m a lecturer in an Engineering college.I want to change my job as i m interested in DBA. So i have joined a course in Oracle 10g DBA through Oracle University,which will be starting on 25th june.Can anyone guide me how to go abt it, so dat i can prepare well for interviews n place myself in a gud company.Also plz let me knw which has gud scope,DBA or Data warehousing.

Hi,
My list of Oracle DBA job skills include the following:
Excellent communication skills - The Oracle professional is the central technical guru for the Oracle shop. He or she must be able to explain Oracle concepts clearly to all developers and programmers accessing the Oracle database. In many shops, the Oracle DBA is also a manager and is required to have excellent communication skills for participating in strategic planning and database architectural reviews.
Formal education – Many employers require Oracle professionals to have a bachelor’s degree in computer science or information systems. For advanced positions such as an Oracle DBA, many employers prefer a master’s degree in computer science or a master’s in business administration (MBA).
Real-world experience - This requirement is the catch-22 for newbie’s who possess only an OCP certificate. A common complaint of people who have OCP certificates but no job experience is that they cannot get experience without the OCP, and they cannot get a job without experience. This is especially true in a tight job market.
Knowledge of database theory - In addition to mastering the technical details required for the OCP exams, the successful Oracle professional must have an understanding of database and data warehouse design. This includes intimate knowledge of data normalization theory and knowledge of star schema design, as well as object-oriented modeling with Unified Modeling Language (UML) and knowledge of other database design methodologies such as CORBA and J2EE.
Here is my list of DBA job skills:

How can I get certified in oracle 10g DBA

Hi,
I have been working as a DBA for past 3 years. Our database is 8i and now i want to upgrade to 10g.
I want to get certified in oracle 10g DBA. So far I havn't written any exam in oracle dba.
Please assist/suggest and show some path to get it achieved.
How to check and when I can appear for the exam and types of questions etc...

Ravi

Conversion of oracle 10g character (.txt) reports to bitmap (.pdf)

Hi,
I have two queries:
1) I want to convert oracle 10g bitmap (.rtf) reports to bitmap (.pdf) reports. I can do it by converting desformat. But the problem is .rtf reports have PAGESIZE 13 inches x 11 inches. After conversion to .pdf I need to have A4 size (11.7 x 8.3) . This also I can do it manually by changing width and height. But the issue is I'm getting error that : some object is out of body. So I have to change the marging of each and every report manually by trail & error method. Which is consuming lot of time.
So any one please provide me solution so that I can generate .pdf report in A4 format with out any issues. (By changing any class files, etc..)
2) I want to convert character(.txt) reports to bitmap (.pdf) reports. Again its having same problem as mentioned in (1). So any shortcut or any method for doing it.
Please let me know whatever you know abt this issue.
Thanks in Advance

Don't think there are any shortcuts you can convert 13x11 to 11.7x8.3 without modification of the layout. changes or moves of the frames/fields are expected if they are beyond 11.7x8.3.

Difference between oracle 10g dba and oracle 11i apps dba

hi
can any one please explain this.
thank you

Hi,
can any one please explain this.An Oracle Applications DBA is very different from a regular Oracle database administrator and requires specialized skills in business administration and Oracle application server architectures. The Oracle Applications DBA job role is less compartmentalized than a traditional Oracle DBA and the Oracle Applications DBA must also have skills in these areas:
Database Design - Many shops require customized functional extensions and reporting data marts and the Oracle Applications DBA must have outstanding Database design skills.
Oracle Application Server - The Oracle Applications DBA must understand the internals of the Oracle concurrent manager and understand how to monitor and tune Oracle Applications.
Functional Expertise - Many shops requires a business degree and a general understanding of the Oracle Applications module. For example, accountants are widely used to support Oracle eBusiness Suite (Oracle Financials), and accountants with an IT background are easily trained in Oracle Applications DBA support.

Can I attend Oracle 10g DBA course & attempt DBA Certification for 11g

Hi,
I am already OCP-PLSQL and want to attempt OCP-DBA stream. I enquired at various oracle education centers and came to know that all are conducting courses for Oracle-10g.
So can I attend Oracle 10g DBA course (Mandatory Course) and attempt DBA Certification for 11g. (1ZO-052 and 1ZO-053)
Thanks,
Vikrant Patil

Thanks,
Vikrant PatilYou can do these thing, and Oracle will take your money for it, but you will receive neither 11g DBA OCP certication nor 10g DBA OCP Certification at the end of it. So it isnt what you would ant to do.
Oracle Unviersity would provide the 11g DBA training courses ... No problem.
however I suspect what you term oracle education centers are probaby institutes offering WDP Courses at 10g DBA (on the cheap). See http://workforce.oracle.com
If you do 10g training then that will only be valid for 10g DBA OCP Certification .. so you would need to take 1z0-042 and 1z0-043 (I guess you already have an SQL Exam pass). Then 1z0-050 can upgrade it to 11g DBA OCP.
(Note that it does not affect you, but the converse is typically true .... version X+1 training will often be acceptable for a version X certification.)

Oracle 10g dba...

i have cleared sql and pl/sql module in oracle 9i and became OCA.now i want to get OCP. if i do oracle 10g workshop 1 and workshop 2 for OCP(10g).does this combination compatible to be an OCP in ORACLE 10g.

If you hold a 9i DBA OCA, you will need to go on to obtain your 9i DBA OCP. You cannot go directly from 9i DBA OCA to 10g DBA OCP.
Option 1 (in no particular order):
- Already holds 9i DBA OCA (please check your account at certview.oracle.com to confirm that you hold this certification)
- Pass exam 1Z0-032
- Pass exam 1Z0-033
- Complete one of the approved training classes for 9i DBA OCP (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=244#1)
- Submit the Course Submission Form at www.pearsonvue.com/oracle to provide your course details for verification
This will get you to 9i DBA OCP
- Pass exam 1Z0-040 to upgrade from 9i DBA OCP to 10g DBA OCP
Option 2: If you don't want to pursue 9i DBA OCP and want to go directly to 10g DBA OCP, you'll need to follow the path below:
- Pass one of the following 3 exams: 1Z0-007, 1Z0-051, 1Z0-047
- Pass exam 1Z0-042
This will get you to 10g DBA OCA
- Pass exam 043
- Complete one of the approved training classes for 10g DBA OCP (http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=244#3)
- Submit the Course Submission Form at www.pearsonvue.com/oracle to provide your course details for verification
This will get you to 10g DBA OCP

Deepak,
There is no free lunch anywhere in this world, and the same is true for the training as well of Oracle modules. If you can't get time out to attend an Instructor based training, you have two choices,
1) Self Study CD Roms Oracle offers the trainining in a self paced learning format with CD Roms which have all whatis needed to make one start and grow with the learning of a specific module. You can check which module you need and can order the cd rom for that. Learn more about this from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=35
2) Live Virtual Class This is the newest standard that Oracle has introduced in the training formats. As the name suggests, this is a class which is surely taught by an instructor only but this doens't need you to come and attend a course at a specific location , for example at Oracle's education office. You can attend the prorgam while being at your home/office as well. It offers rich video/audio expereince which doesn't make you feel that you are just learning sitting in front of a computer. Learn more about it from here,
http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=233
That said, both the options mentioned above are NOT free and there is NO free event happening anywhere which goes from the start to finish of a module. There are some small web events but they can't be called a training class as there are just some topics discussed in them. So once again, don't look for free lunch, its not there anywhere.

IZo-045 Oracle Database 10g DBA New Features for Oracle8i OCPs exam

I am preparing for IZO-045 Oracle Database 10g DBA New Features for Oracle8i OCPs exam, wanted to know in order to pass the exam,

Muhammad AliOkay I've haven't done 1z0-045 ... but I at one point I was considering 1z0-050 so I'm willing to share my views on an upgrade exam and exams in general.
Remember Oracle are trying to ensure that a DBA who was tested at 8i DBA OCP has nw
It depends on your definition of read the topics. If you mean literally just read the topics then that will result in a failure. If you mean study research practice and fully understand the topics that should lead to a pass.
Bear in mind that Oracle would expect a competent 8i DBA attending the 5 day training course Oracle Database 10g: New Features for Oracle8i DBAs [http://education.oracle.com/web_prod-plq-dad/plsql/show_desc.redirect?dc=D17389GC10&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=] to be able pass the exam with perhaps 2 to 4 weeks further study, revision and practice.
Interestingly this particular exam has a relatively high pass mark (73%) ... one implication of that is that it is prudent to be comfortable with all topics.
Generally an upgrade exam will cover topics beyond that of the straight OCA/OCP exams. The questions will obviously be at OCP level.
It is possilble the Sybex book Oracle 10g New Features for Administrators Study Guide (Certification Study Guide) ISBN-13: 978-0782143553 which although for 1z0-040 may have some relevance for some of your topics. If you choose to purchase it that is your choice. (It seems to have good amazon reviews ... though all of these books can contain errors, it may or may not be updated for 10gR2, and some Sybex Oracle books are sometimes OTT in some areas IMHO, but that wouldn't stop me using one).

Difference between Oracle 11i Apps DBA & Oracle Application server 10g DBA

Hi All....
can anyone explain me the *"Difference between Oracle 11i Apps DBA & Oracle Application server 10g DBA"*
Can Oracle 11i Apps DBA work in a Oracle Application server 10g DBA environment.
Regards,

Oracle Apps is a suite of financial applications.
Oracle Application server is Oracle's scaled up implementation of Apache or Weblogic or similar products.
While Oracle Apps might use Oracle Application Server as middleware, Oracle Apps is much, much more than Oracle Application Server.
An Oracle Apps DBA is primarily busy on the functional side, and with implementing an ongoing stream of patches ;)
The two functions have almost nothing in common.
