As can be seen from the previous section, an
Oracle database is not a simple construct. Much thought must go into
file placement, size, number of control files, and numerous other
structural issues before installation. It is a testament to the
resiliency of the Oracle RDBMS that even if most of the decisions
are made incorrectly, the database that results will still function,
alBCt, inefficiently.
The structures are as follows:
Oracle executables
Data files—data, index, temporary, rollback
Redo logs
Control files
Export files
Archive logs
Placement of any LOB or BFILE storage
structures
Let’s examine each of these.
The above text is an excerpt from Mike Ault’s Oracle
DBA Made Simple by Rampant TechPress.
Oracle Utilities
Deep inside the operating system
executables there are many utilities at the fingertips of Oracle
professionals, but until now there has been no advice on how to use
these utilities. From tnsping.exe to dbv.exe to
wrap.exe, Dave Moore describes each utility and has working
examples in the online code depot. Your time savings from a single
script is worth the price of this great book.
