I would insist that your boss send you to Oracle training. If they'll pay for training, travel, and your salary while you are in training then that's a good measure of their support. You should also get commitment for annual trips to the IOUG conference. Is your employer willing to support you in your Oracle DBA education? If they are not willing to give this level of commitment then why expend the energy to become self-taught? The answer to that last question is up to you.

To install... release notes, Getting Started guide.

Then, Oracle Concepts manual and Database Administration manual.

Perhaps Oracle Press DBA 101 book.

After that, get a membership card for your local bookstore. Get used to purchasing books that sell for US$60 or more each... Switch your meal plan to macaroni and cheese.

Hi dear all

A few days ago I was surprised by my IT manager who has offered to me to administer local Sun box with Oracle 8i.

I have a near-deep experience with Solaris system administration (about 4 year) but I have doubts regarding administration of Oracle+Solaris.

>From what I must to start to deeping into DBA business? Is it enough - careful reading of Oracle documentation? I really confused ;-[

***

thank you!

Andy
