Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: DB Link Between Prod and Test?
Well, you could create a user in the production database that only has select privileges and then create the database link to access that account. The big thing you'd have to be careful of here is that the person doesn't try to run some crazy query that bogs down the production system (but you could probably deter that potential hazard by setting up a nice little resource restrictive profile for that account)...

To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L
One of our development DBAs suggested today to build a private database
link between production and test database so that he can run some
queries against both at the same time. I am a little concerned because he
might make a mistake and accidentally corrupt the prod database. Anybody
out there who is doing the same thing? Are there any other potential
ramifications?
