Hi,

Ok, I know Oracle 7.3 on NT4, I know more about Oracle 7.3 on Unix, but I would know if there is some tools or papers to guide me.

Take a 'normal' DB :
- with its differents TBS (data, index, temp, rbs),

with its Archive Logs to solve every days and then remove them to keep the disk not full,
with its Export Full each night during the DB is running,
with its complete backup (TBS files) each week-end,
with maybe some things I would not think now ...

I would know if one is more secure (and with which product:Cheyenn...), if one is more fast (compared with the same disks), if it's easy to see and log activity on NT during transaction (like sar/ps ... on Unix),
if one is more easy to administrate when one develops on the same host the product runs.

Thanks for (just the begining of) your help.
