You did not mentioned what OS you are working on.
If the remote database is on your network, even via wan, you can activate
all the tools from your desktop.
We use RAS to connect to remote servers without network connections and then
you have SLOW network connection and your tools will work.
If the need arise you can use Netop or other PcAnywhere to take control of
the server and do your work from there.

We are on windows servers and clients.

RE: Remote DBA

2003-04-03 Thread Ramesh Papnoi

Thanks all for ur feedback. I would add little more into it now. Now as far
as Administering is concerned it can be done on any OS Well!.

How about Backup and recovery, because it requires the Manual steps as to
change tapes etc and How the Remote System Administrator co-ordinates with
Remote-DBA. My guess is that it should be thru chat programs or telecon. I
also guess that The backup part may not be that much complicated compared
to Recovery in the conversation between Remote System Administrator and
Remote-DBA. I am assuming that Remote System Admin is poor or less
knowledgeable into Relational DATABASES, It happens sometimes :)

Chris,
VNC and OpenSSH are slow and VNC is still a little unstable (IMHO), I
personally manage my windows 2000 Oracle DB with a VPN and then a Terminal
server window direct to my desktop - from there I have all the tools that I
usually have - notepad, mspaint, dir :).
I hate to have to plug windows products, but if it were linux or unix, then
it would be a different story, seeing as though it matters little where you
are physically on a Linux/Unix box (SSH Telnet, or an XWindow Session with
the display set to your own IP)...

Anyone knows what Big Larry uses to connect to his Database? :)

I do both platforms, my recommendation is OpenSSH + VNC, they work great,
they're free, and they're available for both platforms.

Say what you think Joe,
When I have been looking for contacts several agencies have asked me to take
those tests as a means of ensuring that I know what I am supposed to know.
They act as a pre-interview filter
If it sorts the wheat  from the chaff then I don't think they perform a bad
service in that respect.
However as far as being touted as a professional qualification as Ramesh is
using them then I think I would forget about it.

I think anybody who contributes to this list claiming to be this, that or
the other is setting himself up for a fall.

Dennis has got the idea by having 40% OCP in his sig (however that has been
there so long now that the exams probably need re-taking now )

Ramesh, since in your sig line you say you're brainbench and brainbuzz

and thought they were a joke.

Ramesh
   If you visit the web sites of vendors that provide this type of service,
you may find the white papers you desire. I went to Google and typed Oracle
remote dba and found a lot of sites.
   In general terms, these companies work by first getting to know your
site, having one of their employees come to your site for a week or two.
Then they require you to install some monitoring software like BMC Patrol.
Then you work together to set some guidelines on what they will monitor and
what action they will take under certain circumstances. In addition, they
can perform staff augmentation tasks as you desire. For example, if your
site doesn't have the staff to upgrade to a newer Oracle version, they can
plan that task and perform the upgrade.
