Hello All,

This is more of an administration post, but I assume this affects all of us on some level.

For those of you with DBA's in different locations, how do you deal with who makes what changes where? We have about 100 databases that we manage, with two DBA's in one state and one other in another state. We have boxes in both locations.

Do you assign lead DBA's to each database?

If so, what does that mean (i.e., who can do what?)

Can each DBA make a change in another "leads" database and then inform him/her?

What success/failures are probable in any given scenario?

You get the drift...

Thanks,
