RE: Physical access to servers for maintenance

Our servers are located in a commercial IDC (Internet Data Center) that has tight security. The DBAs do not have access to the building, only a select few Sys. Admins. So, we just give the Oracle CDs to a Sys. Admin. and have him copy the contents of the multiple install CDs to the hard drive and then we can run the complete install without swapping CDs. There are instructions for doing this in the 9i documentation.

Our hardware people are cracking sown on access to the computer room. They have decided the DBA group can do all their work without going to the server itself. This includes Unix and NT server running both Oracle and SQL Server. We would have to use VNC Viewer and PC Anywhere. I am trying to put together a list of things we might need to do that would make remote admin difficult as well as taking longer. If you have any ideas I would appreciate it.
