Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Top 10 DBA Do's and Don'ts anyone
I would say that one of the more important "Do's" is "Do understand
details about your O/S and storage system". For example, I think every
DBA should be able to map data files back to physical devices,
regardless of the storage vendor (EMC, Hitachi, etc). When you look at
I/O statistics from v$filestat, sar -d, or whatever, it's good to
understand what the I/O actually means, at a controller/disk drive
level. Good DBAs shouldn't consider anything a Black Box.
