Peter, I used it briefly a couple of years ago. It certainly works well enough. The problem I had related to password administration. When you set it up in Oracle, you need to provide the password to an id on the OS/390 system. Our OS/390 system requires us to change passwords every 30

You will not find it in 9i, because they have taken it away. It doesn't exist starting from 9i. We have to use 'sqlplus' for everything we did using 'svrmgrl'. I suggest you check out the 9i docs at : http://tahiti.oracle.com/ as there are a lot of new features in 9i. - Kirti -Original

Lisa - I agree with Tom (always a good move). The way I would put the question is: do you have a large production database that you think you will have to upgrade at some point if the future? If the answer is yes, then I think you should practice the upgrade now. If the answer is no, then forget

Title: STATSPACK impact? Just curious, but if your shop uses STATSPACK, could you tell me how frequently you run it, particularly in your OLTP databases; and whether you've noticed any performance issues with generating frequent STATSPACK snapshots? Thanks.

I have run it as frequently as once per hour, often times just 2 or 3 times per day - morning, noon, close of business. I have never seen any performance impact, and I don't believe there will be any unless you change the default level of statistics gathering. -Joe On Wed, 06 Feb 2002
