Re: Congratulations Arup (DBA of the Year)

Re: Congratulations Arup (DBA of the Year)
Well, the title is You PROBABLY don't need RAC, and I did actually (but just for fun to see his reaction) propose to Cary that I would do a You Probably Don't Need Oracle presentation at the Hotsos Symposium. He didn't reply to that. So instead I'll do You probably don't need a goat. The reason - according to Jeff Spicer, the editor of Oracle Magazine - that I got an award was because of some stuff we've been doing here in Denmark together with Oracle Denmark. They include Specials and the DBA Nightschool. We call them Specials, but they're nothing else than targeted, special days where a certain topic (usually narrow, eg Partitioning, MVs, etc.) are covered by guys who both know the stuff theoretically and from real work. Many moons ago Oracle's own Lex de Haan started up something called Technical Seminars whereby I and others would travel the world and teach specialised topics for a day or two. I just copied Lex' ideas from back then and teamed up with Oracle Denmark's Education Director Henrik Wegge. It doesn't take away business from the normal classes, since this is for experienced participants, and it's a good way of keeping in touch with the experienced folks out there. The DBA Nightschool is something we did back in the Premium Services days in Oracle: DBAs will meet every Tuesday from 1700 to 2000 and go through a number of advanced topics and get to mix with other DBAs over the quick dinner or during the short breaks. We've taken it up again this year, and the topics include 8.1.7 New Features (there were certain things in 8.1.7 that were never covered in the 8i or 9i New Features classes because of timings), 10046, 10053, Throw-Away of rows, 10104, maybe some 10g stuff :). It was the guys at the Danish Oracle User Group (OUGDK) board that set me up for this award thing, and I'm very grateful for that, by the way. I got the call from Jeff Spicer during dinner at the DBA Nightschool, so it was kind of cool. I've always teased Cary with the fact that anything in America is award-winning these days. Well, suddenly I see it in a completely different light! Or maybe not.

Nope, no Bill O'Reilly isn't available here. What is it and how can I learn more about him? As for the pictures, you won't believe how fat I look. In other words, it was a good photographer who managed to capture me as I am. Here in this country we consider anyone weighing less than 100 kilos feminine. If you're not a member of Club 100, you're not a real man, in other words. For Cary's information, 100 Kilograms is about 4TB Pounds rounded to the nearest SquareGallon.

I would enjoy providing a detailed response but I doubt that Jared would tolerate such an excursion into political pamphlets. I'll send you a private response tomorrow afternoon (EST). And remember, the spin stops here. To make a long story short, Bill O'Reilly is a political commentator from the Fox New, which are, of course, fair and balanced, with the strong inclinations toward far right. He was organizing boycott of the Dixie Chicks for speaking against Bush. In other words, Bill O'Reilly is a diluted version of Joe McCarthy in the 21st century.

RE: Congratulations Arup (DBA of the Year)
kidding aside, this does sound like a good idea. an independent group of professionals. And if you are looking for an independent group of 'Oracle' professionals, you always have the IOUG. Granted, we have our share of Developers (!) but then all good DBAs probably were Developers at some point of time (potty training themselves). In spite of all negative comments about association to Oracle, IOUG is still a force to be reckoned with and Oracle does listen and participate. And a large number of Oracle-L members do also hold (and have held) voluntary positions within IOUG, and serve the Oracle community in general. (Arup is one of them btw and so are Jared, Stephen K, Ari Kaplan, Tony Jambu, self, etc). Some of the best papers at IOUG (and the University faculty as well) are from Oracle-L listers. And anyone can belong to IOUG for a yearly sum of $125 or 10 members of an organization for $595.

Well, as a person who has survived with Arup one minor and non-exacting project (moving 1TB OPS database from Siemens--HP, from V7--8i, simultaneously, over a single weekend, with rather simple twists, like finding the right patch for Dev 2000 to continue working, utilizing listener load balancing and properly configuring GC_FILES_TO_LOCKS, migrating all the backup scripts and all the database copying scripts and testing all the applications) and who is reviewing a chapter of his incoming book,I must say that this title is more then deserved.

Re: Congratulations Arup (DBA of the Year)
I think that it is Oracle Magazine that is actually awarding this, isn't it? That provides a clue to the source and methods... Does anyone pay for a subscription to Oracle Magazine? Probably not -- the price of subscription is generally to fill out a real or virtual subscription card, on which Job Title is queried. From that, they probably get their number of a quarter-million DBAs worldwide. Just my guess. Either that, or they do what I do and just pull the numbers out of my...er...thin air... I believe that Arup was awarded this honor and distinction for activities that have come to the attention of Oracle Magazine, namely articles written and published, work performed for Open World, IOUG-A, and SELECT magazine, local Oracle Users Groups, and (possibly?) exposure on this list from the excellent advice and explanations he's provided... ...and possibly from review of TARs opened, processed, and closed... :-) Of course it seems unlikely that #1 DBA can be chosen by any scientific method, but however they did it I think they made an excellent choice regardless! I've always appreciated Arup's contributions to this list and had the pleasure of seeing his presentation at NYOUG last December. --- And congratulations to Mogens for being named Educator of the Year! The leader of the junta which runs the Oak Table Forum has probably forgotten (or drowned?) more information than the rest of us have ever learned, but he's quite generous with the information he has resident. I've always learned something whenever he says anything! In fact, just recently he related the method of milking a nanny goat who has mastitis (yes, carefully and gently for starters, watch the horns...) :-) on 8/28/03 2:34 PM, Pete Sharman at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: And did you really think we DON'T monitor tars raised??? :) Pete Controlling developers is like herding cats.

What criteria was used. How can Oracle know about a quarter of a million DBA's unless it monitors tars raised.
