They afraid you'll add items you're not license for when installing software, and i'm still trying to figure out why if you resize something a SVP needs to know, talk about micro-managing.

>>>We've been through an internal audit and I was just wondering if
anyone elsehas to deal with the rather ludicrous requirements I now have.  In order toadd or resize a datafile I now need to fill out a form and get Senior VPapproval and the alert logs must be reviewed every day by a non-DBA in orderto be certain that I didn't make any database changes without such approval.The auditors were horrified to discover that not only did I do such thingswhenever I thought them necessary but that we didn't have a non-DBA revieweverything I did after an Oracle upgrade to ensure I didn't install anyother software.Fortunately I managed to convince them that yes, I really did need a Unixlogin (they were skeptical).So, any similar horror stories?Jay MillerSr. Oracle DBA-- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: <A
