Summary: Good database monitoring section
Review: I bought the book because of the "monitoring database tables, indexes, clusters, snapshots, and objects" chapter. Lots of good SQL scripts on how to get the information you need to monitor your database. In addition, each script has a corresponding sample output section. This helps you see what output the script is going to generate.

Summary: A very good book for Unix or NT
Review: I found this book to be very helpful, especially as we are migrating from various 8.0.X versions. Much of the information and the scripts were useful with our exisitng systems but the real benefit will come when we convert all of our servers to 8.1.6. I think the book is clear and easy to follow - no errors so far. Even though some of the information is geared toward Unix (all of our boxes, except one is NT 4), the information is presented well enough that NT and Unix users alike will benefit.

Summary: Top-notch Oracle administration book
Review: In addition to Oracle classroom training, I have tried to learn Oracle DBA from many Oracle books and found that this is the best one because its explanation is lucid, the materials are practical, and the organization of the book is well-thought out. It is not intended for Oracle DBA beginners. I carry with it me all the time on my job.

Summary: Clearly the best DBA Reference
Review: Mike has done a superb job in this text. People who work as DBAs for a living need the kind of in-depth and comprehensive treatment of highly technical material, and Mike excels at this task.

Summary: When in doubt, look here first...
Review: This is a great book if you are using 8i features and want to avoid some of the 'bumpies'. Example: Mike Ault's book is the only one I know of which warns you about putting an error-handler in your database-wide login trigger. If you don't do that (as I found out before I bought the book) you're going to be climbing in the back window by way of Server Manager to get your database functioning again. It's a good book with a huge number of good scripts. You should buy it.
