RE: Where does a DBA go from here?

I haven't read the Tuning 101 but it sounds like it lets you know where you are waiting.  The Internals book will give you in-depth knowledge of why by diving deeper into some of the algorithms used to implement those waits.  Break out the aspirin 'cause it ain't leisure reading.

Subject: RE: Where does a DBA go from here?

Can anyone tell me if Steve's book contains details that would be useful in

understanding the Wait Interface that Tuning 101 covers? Or would it be more

redundant from that aspect? Thanks.

I agree, get the pints in first. Worry about Oracle later. When you do come

to it, try "Oracle8i internal services for waits, latches, locks and memory"

by Steve Adams.

And of course book.

Its Friday, the immediate solution is "get beer" !! As to your other problem

its text book time - take a look at Tuning 101 by the lists own Kirti and

Gaja.

So, there I am.  I've taken the main Oracle courses -- Intro to SQL, DBA

(Oracle 7!), Backup & Recovery, Network Admin, and Perf Tuning.  Now where

do I go for more Oracle training?

This is sparked by a recent perceived lag in one of our new databases.

We've tracked it down to a possible hot block or two, but I never used X$BH

or V$LATCH_CHILDREN in any of my Oracle classes.  And I *know* I'm far from

being ready for an Internals class.  So how do I get from here to there?

education.oracle.com doesn't seem to have a whole lot other than Internals.

Or is that where I'm at now?

Confused and no beer.
