Re: Learning Oracle on Windows

"Oracle 9i for Windows 2000: Tips and Techniques," by Jesse, Hart, and Sale, has a lot of good basic Windows/Oracle information. Obviously it doesn't include 10g, but oradim, remote connection techniques, virtual memory (including how to use orastack to reduce default stack space), using PerfMon to measure virtual memory, and AWE (extended memory) are covered.

Well, heck. Let me refer everyone to Oracle's 10g documentation. ;-)

***
Look for b10113.pdf (Oracle Database Platform Guide 10g Release 1 for Windows, Part No. B10113-02, 262pg).

The original 10g documenation package was incomple, and was missing key documents for Oracle on Windows. Doh!. The incomplete package was B12037_01.zip (bad) and is missing the entire subdirectory win.101.

Good news. The new(er) documentation package on OTN has some very useful document for Oracle on Windows. The complete/good package is B14117_01.zip (good) and includes 7x pdf files in directory win.101.

http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database10g.html download B14117_01.zip

If you get the good doc package, the file to look for is b10113.pdf (Oracle Database Platform Guide 10g Release 1 for Windows, Part No. B10113-02, 262pg). This is a very complete guide to all sorts of widows tips, registry keys, and so forth. There are other, less relevant, windows related pdf in the /good/ doc package, like an outdated Pro*C manual. BTW, you need to load the 10g Companion CDROM to get the Pro*C demo programs.
