Please give candid reply. thanks in advance.

Hi,
Go for ABAP you have OPEN SQL and STRUCTURED SQL there but again
you have to learn these concepts.
1)Data dictonary
2)Control Statements
3)Reporting a)Clasical b)interactive
4)Modularization techniques
5)BDC
6)Scripts
7)LSMW(Data Transfers)
8)Files,table controlls
10)Object Oriented Concepts
11)ALE/IDOcs
This takes a long time, and the decision is yours.

SAP Adaptor for Oracle Installation Help

Hi,
I am newbie, I am looking for help in installing SAP Adaptor for Oracle.
My Idea is to do some RFC calls to fetch data from SAP into Oracle database. I am looking for what is my starting points, what to install and configurations. If you can help me with steps to be followed is really Appreciative. I tried to search in Oracle Forums, I guess I am not able to come up with correct tags. It may be a long explanation and may be people asked this question before. If you give me links to read is good enough.
Following is My platform:
Oracle:
I have Oracle 10G and 11 versions. Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?
Operating System:
Unix AIX 5.3
SAP:
ECC 6
Thanks In Advance,
Raj Murthy(Bhavaraju)

Hello,
Right now I have my infrastructer ready for 10G. If I install SAP Adaptor and get things running according to what I need, and tomorrow if I upgrade Oracle to 11 version, What all the things that I Upgrade?About all the topics relatives to SAP, you should ask them (to SAP support service) the question. For instance, is Oracle 11.2 certified for SAP ECC6 ? Or would you have to wait for a later release or patch from SAP ?
Only SAP could answer you for their own product and matrix compatibility / certification.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

Interview questions for oracle dba

Hi I am trying to find teh interview questions for oracle dba .
What will be your answer to the following questions. Can somebody shed some light...
. What is the day to day duties of oracle dba?
·     Did you use online or off-line backups?
·     What version of Oracle were you running?
·     Haw many databases and what sizes?
·     If you have to advise a backup strategy for a new application, how would you approach it and what questions will you ask?
·     If a customer calls you about a hanging database session, what will you do to resolve it?
·     Compare Oracle to any other database that you know. Why would you prefer to work on one and not on the other?
Thx
KK

. What is the day to day duties of oracle dba?
I have got a checklist, designed for my daily, weekly, fortnightly and monthly tasks. For example, in the daily checklist tasks, I check for the alert log file, competion and correction of my exports and operating system backups. DB space situation, Antivirus status, standby database status, space on disks, any rogue queries etc.
· Did you use online or off-line backups?
Both.
· What version of Oracle were you running?
8i(not any more), 9i, 10g
· Haw many databases and what sizes?
8 databases, ranging from 1 TB to 10 GB. I have segregated them into OLTP production, testing, cm, and development and a Datawarehouse.
· If you have to advise a backup strategy for a new application, how would you approach it and what questions will you ask?
How much they could afford to lose data or they want zero data loss and also I will get their requirements about down time and up time of database.
· If a customer calls you about a hanging database session, what will you do to resolve it?
First I will identify it, then see to it what exactly it is doing, capture that situation and then either try to release the locks(if its a blocking or blocked session), or kill the session, if its hanging on a runaway query.
· Compare Oracle to any other database that you know. Why would you prefer to work on one and not on the other?
Oracle passes the ACID rule with distinction as compared to the other databases. Moreover, the multiversion read consistency, recovery, flexibility and challenges of Oracle are matchless.

Demand for oracle dba

Hi,
I've heard from many people that the demand for Oracle DBAs in the market is getting down and will continue to degrade. Is it true?
Waiting for reply.

Is that [DBA 1.0 or DBA 2.0|http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/docs/Oracle%20DBA%202.0.pdf]?
The market is down in general. Who knows what the future holds. Normally it's a bit like the past with some minor changes.

DBAShell - New Open Source Project for Oracle DBA's

I'd like to have this project included in the Open Source Oracle tools list at: http://www.oracle.com/technology/community/opensource_projects.html
I've been an Oracle DBA for quite some time (since 7.0.13) and a developer for many years. One of the things I've always wished for was an easier way to set up environment variables for different Oracle Homes and a way to provide passwords to scripts without embedding them in plain-view.
About 3 years ago, I started a set of functions and scripts at my company that did exactly just that and provided many more functions for things like checking database status, running scripts quietly unless errors are detected, running actions in parallel (like fast shutdowns at once, or multiple analyzes), restarting databases in a guaranteed fashion, aliases to common folder locations, etc..
About a month ago, after putting all this time and effort into these scripts and using them in production all this time, I realized I wanted more out of the scripts like support for other databases and thought that it would be best if I gave it new life as an Open Source project.
So that is how http://sourceforge.net/projects/dbashell/ was started. Now its in a second release (DBAShell 0.85) that is more modular and would allow other people to easily add support for other OSs, other Shells, and other Databases.
Here is a description of the project from the latest news item:
DBAShell is a project based around Shell functions and scripts designed to make it easy for DBA's to use Databases in a command line environment. Currently supported is Oracle with ksh and bash on AIX, Solaris, Linux. The code base itself is 3 years old and has been in use in Production environments all of that time.
Features include:
* Automatic setting of all environment variables based on SID requested.
* Manage PATH's and other path like variables for each ORACLE_HOME needed.
* Run scripts with stored passwords (no more hard-coding of passwords!!)
* Automatically set SID based on Script location (makes it easier to share scripts between SID's)
* manage temporary script output and check for oracle errors in output
* check database status and versions from scripts
* stop/start databases in parallel (faster startup)
* compile all database objects
* analyze objects in parallel (Faster analyzes)
* set aliases and variables for common SID areas, etc..
* many helpful commands for common Oracle tasks
Over a thousand people have already downloaded the prior release and more are downloading every hour.
I'm seeking feedback from anybody that would be willing to take a look at the project, trying it out, give me any feedback you have on it, and perhaps even direct me to where I could best promote this project.
I wrote a tutorial that shows at a glance some of the more useful features of DBAShell:
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=34041&group_id=170224
Main site:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dbashell/
Documentation: http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=33704&group_id=170224
Download:
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/dbashell/dbashell-0.85.tar.gz?download

Always glad to have people thinking about the poor DBA's. Usually, the developers get most of the attention in open source.

Good book for oracle dba

hi experts,
I am new to oracle dba field. Can you please suggest methe name of a good book.
Regards
Rajat

Maybe the best thing would be a course? Books are fine, but you will probably learn quicker by example. There are some reasonable CD-ROM/DVD courses out there (not naming any). Google for some and check their rating. I know of no single book that would offer as much as a decent course. Once you are up to speed, then, yes, you'll be seeking out the better books. Finally, the 2-day guides in Oracle's docs. are really worth reading, and re-reading. But the docs, by themselves, are a bit dry. If you can afford an Oracle University course, or (my preference) Learning Tree (and, no, I do not work for them, etc.), then go for that - you won't regret it.
All IMHO!

Which is the best training institute in india for oracle dba?

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.
