I know a little about databases, i.e. MS access. At work, we use
Oracle 8i on a Unix Server. I want to learn Oracle. However, before
I ask our IT dept for access, I wanted to get a few questions
answered.
- Assuming I get a book on how to create a database in Oracle, is
possible for a DBA to set aside an area on the Unix Server that I can
access and create a database while at the same time not being able to
access areas that I might mess up by playing around. i.e. I
accidently change some parameters in a production system that's on the
same Server.
- Assuming that an area could be set aside, what valid concerns would
a DBA have for not wanting a newbie to have an area to just learn?
TIA
