Robert, Shame on you for the "plug". Did you ask Ashoke to post the message so there could be some saving grace distributed for the 9i upgrade shortcomings?. Yes, I have the book and find it very informative. It is nice to know that there is an 8i to 9i upgrade book available. I have not see it in my local bookstore yet, of course my locat bookstore has not replace the copy of Oracle Perfomace Tuning 101 yet either. I don't think I will need it for a while because we are not scheduled to upgrade until late 2003. Ashoke, the information needed to assist in upgrading your OCP from 8 to 8i is in the book and on other documentation. Read and understand the source information and practice on a database. When you are confident with your knowledge review the information and schedule the exam. Remember, the exam is not A, or B, or C, or D the answers will test your conceptual knowledge and the answers will most likely be A,B, and D.
