Jobs of the Oracle Remote
DBA and the UNIX Systems Administrator
In many Oracle shops, computer professionals called systems
administrators are responsible for the setup, configuration,
and tuning of the Oracle database server. The abilities of
system administrators vary widely, from excellent support
and cooperation to neophyte support and complete
non-cooperation.
Because of the tight coupling between database performance
and server performance, it is imperative that the Oracle
Remote DBA have access to the tools that we describe below.
By themselves, the systems administrators will not have
enough information about what is happening inside the
database to properly tune the server. Conversely, the Remote
DBA cannot get the information they need to properly
configure Oracle if they cannot get access to the server
monitor utilities.
Many Oracle shops give root access to the Remote DBA so they
will have full control over their database server. The
system administrator continues to be responsible for the
configuration and system software on the server, but the
Remote DBA accepts responsibility for setting the kernel
parameters and managing the interface layer between Oracle
and the operating system environment.
A small minority of shops will restrict access to the root
account, but these shops will provide the Oracle Remote DBA
with access to all of the server monitor tools and system
utilities. In either case, it is imperative that the Oracle
Remote DBA have access to the system monitor tools.
