Subject: installing security patches on a Windows database server (was "Oracle 10g for Windows")=20

be reliable. But one thing that puzzles me - when you install a =3D Microsoft security patch, the dialog box at the end (almost) always says = =3D

databases can be brought down (they're used for development.) What do = =3D
people do with a production database server?
