RE:

one of three things...
And I feel a lot of pain in stating this first two.. Let them have it, but change it at a pre-defined point in time. (at the beginning of testing)

Give them an account that will enable them to create objects etc, within the application schema. And disable their access at a predefined point in time.

Or don't give them DBA privs-find out what they need and why-and create a Change Control Function to meet their needs...

I sure would appreciate some opinions on this. At my place of work we have

two teams in our division. One team is the application programmers and the

other team is UNIX system/Oracle DBAs. I have a new platform that just came in. I need to set up the Oracle database and Oracle Application Server
on it. Here's the question. My application programmer wants the Oracle
DBA account and the sys account. This platform is not a test platform.

Yes they are developing on this platform and then it will go into production. My Oracle DBA's do not want to give out the accounts to the
developers.
Who do I please?
