I would tend to agree with Lisa,
Ask them if If they break it, can they fix it ? The answer will be no so never , ever , ever give these privileges to developers.
< DBA Gospel>
Developers tend to be narrrow minded in their focus.
They want their application to run, and will tend to do anything that gets this
job done.
They don't tend to give a damn about anybody else on the database along as their
code works.
</ DBA Gospel>
(been there , done that, seen the light, got converted , Alleluia, praise the DBA for he/she /it is Almighty)
Happy to preach

Donna, to be subtle:
NO NO NO!!!!!!!
Unless they are willing to recover a database, DO NOT give them sys and
system!
That's the argument I always present to consultants who want system or DBA
privileges. ABSOLUTELY NOT.
I do not envy your position....
Good Luck

Sending this again, Because I did not have a subject last time.
I sure would appreciate some opinions on this. At my place of work we have
two teams in our division. One team is the application programmers and the
other team is UNIX system/Oracle DBAs. I have a new platform that just
came in. I need to set up the Oracle database and Oracle Application
Server
on it. Here's the question. My application programmer wants the
Oracle
DBA account and the sys account. This platform is not a test platform.
Yes they are developing on this platform and then it will go into
production. My Oracle DBA's do not want to give out the accounts to
the
developers.
Who do I please?
