Oracle database administration demands extensive knowledge and the ability to execute numerous tasks, including installation, tuning, and troubleshooting.

This book serves as a concise reference for the vast information needed daily by Oracle DBAs, featuring quick-reference tables, task lists, and summary materials beneficial for both novice and expert users. It addresses commands and operations introduced in Oracle8, while also including information relevant to Oracle7 for those using earlier versions. The content is divided into two main sections: DBA tasks, which summarize critical functions such as installation, performance tuning, data loss prevention, networking, security, auditing, query optimization, and the use of Oracle tools; and DBA reference, which offers quick access to information about the Oracle instance, initialization parameters, common SQL statements, data dictionary tables, system privileges, and SQL*Plus syntax. Additionally, the book provides a resource summary with references to further readings and online resources valuable to Oracle DBAs. This essential reference is one you'll consistently rely on, whether at the office, home, or on-site troubleshooting.
