RE: A DBA looks at OAS

At work we ordered 9iAS R2 (for NT/Win2000) in May. We just got it the other day. I have to wait for some old lab machines to go to surplus status (many months) before I can make a couple sandbox win2000 servers to test it and the 9i db (and 9i iDS).

books

??? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0072190922

doesn't have anything on NT, or 9iAS specifically, but for Win2000 tools/environment, w/ the 9i db, or EM:

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0072194626

??? general oracle architecture/technology, apparently includes "something" on 9i AS:
