Re: Oracle books

On Tue, 8 May 2001,Keith Myers scribbled on the wall in glitter crayon:

->Being a relatively new and often times struggling Oracle DBA I was wondering
->what 3 or 4 books everyone recommends as a must have reference/knowledge
->base in day to day support/programming of their databases.
->
->

One I recommend and use is Oracle DBA 101. My advice, get it, read it, highlight it, and scribble notes in the margins. Mine sits next to me as I work. I just wish it had wider margins for note scribbling.;-)

Another is Oracle Backup and Recovery, same advice.

And for a third... ORACLE SQL & PL/SQL Annotated Archives.

YMMV, yadda yadda yadda.
