Hello Oracle fans...
I have a really wild question for you.
My company is starting a new project-- and I need to make estimates on time for construction/configuration of many Oracle DBs on many different servers. HA! So I'm looking for some advice. The basic idea is:
There is to be a 100 GB database installed as a basic DB with some additional customized data added on each server. The base DB is supposedly going to be coming from a master server through gigabit ethernet.

I'm thinking, having never seen this data, that this is going to be an export/import deal. If it is -- how long will it take for the import of the data? Will the tablespaces and tables need to be created before the import? Is user info available from an import? Or will users need to be created each time (should be scripted in PLSQL)?

I only have a bare idea of how big an opportunity this is and I'm guessing that it could be a real disaster if done wrong.

Any help or thoughts would be truly appreciated... Thanks
Vickie
