I should have mentioned that another useful one could be QRM.
QRM = I am experiencing interference.
QRM? = Are you experiencing interference?
Look across the table at your DBA-mates during your next meeting with
management and say or ask QRM(?). Or blink your eyes.

As far as we know there is no bandwidth limit on this list and problems can be understood better if you state them in a lucid and clear language. I had to really read twice (sorry haven't had my Great One yet) to understand

Hmm, English really isn't my mother tongue, but I don't like such
cryptic notations in English as well as in Latvian. It makes language
more meagre and poor. Of course I also make mistakes but these are
caused by my lack of knowledge and I can always accept them from another
people.

Thanks Dennis,
It isn't my first language either (I started learning English in the 5th grade in India). I have seen this language before, and like Rachel said, it is more of a philosophical trouble.
I used similar language

Although I hate to make my first submission to The List in 2003 as
negative one, I would still like to suggest that text messages have no
place in a forum such as this. Quite apart from being needless, such a
message format shows a total lack of respect for the recipient and a
distinct arrogance
Even though i strongly think that there is nothing
wrong in writing U instead of you, respecting your
feelings towards the list, and considering the fact
that we must think above such small matters, I will be
careful in future.
Thanks.

Don't forget a lot of people uses PDA or wireless devices which
has limitations on how many characters can be trasmitted. SMS for instance
allows only 160 characters.
Now why would someone write from such a device to ask an Oracle question
is beyond me. Perhaps all the machines are down? :)

I don't think you will ever see QRP used (reduce your power).

It reminds me the text I have read few years ago, maybe even posted to this
list:

BTW Personally I am on the philosophical side - use common abbreviations
like BTW, ROTFL, etc but don't like the U, 4U, etc.
But who knows what the future brings, especially with
it can mean both. one of the reasons I don't love abbreviations!

Any opinion expressed here is personal
Proper use of language never hurts. In fact, as Raj pointed out, if you
use the abbreviations in work emails or memos, especially to people
higher in the corporate structure, you are likely to lose image points.

If you need the answer, from someone who is unwilling to yield, you will have
to yield yourself.
This is the first thing I learnt on this list.
There are real experts on this list, and if you want an answer from them,
make sure that they don't direct the mail to trash even before reading it.
Jared what exactly U use Veritas Netbackup fr in Ur

Nothing special from the RMAN side. The SBT_TAPE

Not quite that simple in reality, as the backups now become
part of the NBU environment, and you must setup NBU
policies, schedules, etc.

If you invest in the option, you might consider purchasing the book
Oracle9i RMAN Backup Recovery by Robert Freeman
It has a chapter on configuring VERITAS NetBackup.

You use the product to backup all your data into this tape system, not to

Veritas NetBackup has an agent that allows RMAN to open channels to this
