Lee - Interesting you were using IBM Flashcopy and you had problems. I am using FlashCopy v2 and have not seen any problems. Can you enlighten me what I should look out for?

Thanks,
Gene

>>> lerobe_at_acxiom.co.uk 10/09/03 06:44AM >>> At the risk of being dragged off and strung up (and keeping it brief as I am
very busy), I really thought it was quite good. Maybe it is the "change is
as good as a rest" syndrome.

Quite intuitive and fairly easy to get dramatic performance gains by parameter tweaking and runstats (equiv. of analyzing but takes up much less
time). Quite good command line tools for index advising and explains etc.

Was particularly impressed at how easy it was to set up EEE (equiv. of Parallel Server I suppose)

Downside is there is very little out there book-wise (hmmmm, wonder if there
is a niche market there - DB2 for Oracle DBAs ??) and backups are potential
pitfalls. We have had several issues using Flash Copy on a Shark and the
archive logging is a bitch to set up.

Just my 2p (bugger the Euro) worth.

So Lee... As an experienced Oracle guy, what are your thoughts about DB2?

I suggest you buy your mushrooms from the supermarket like the rest of us
instead of picking them in those strange fields my friend

Hey good to see you back again Lee.

The big change here is that all Oracle knowledge has been cyber-engineered
into an automoton called Tanel Poder.
Any query to the list is routed by a big fast connection into a huge server
with hundreds of CPU's and unlimited memory

An almost instantaneous reply is automatically generated , often complete
with complex examples and code cuts to demonstrate the point. The best part is that is that the machine is programmed to exibit almost
humanistic type responses (occasionally)

Hi everyone,

I'm back in the land of the living after spending a year on a DB2 EEE project. I've just started working on a 9i RAC solution so the questions
will soon be flooding in. I will be lucky if I can even remember to spell
spqlusl , I mean sqlplus :-)

Cheers

Lee
