What's wrong?

1- It's Oracle's definition. I want an industry standard. If I wanted another "defacto standard", I'd stay with M$ and not bother about Oracle.
2- It is the job description of a production dba. That has never been enough.
3- It seems to imply that anything that is "technical" should be left to Oracle support. Sure... Received on Sat Oct 02 2004 - 06:49:20 CDT
