Oracle Enterprise Manager 10G Grid Control - Lessons I've Learned the Hard Way
We now have several 10G analysis projects underway. I thought I’d give you a quick update on our accomplishments (or lack thereof) on one of them. This will hopefully prevent others from experiencing the same issues that we just have.

Even with all of the high-tech bells and whistles that 10G offers, the database is useless to us if we can't administer it effectively. For years now, Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM) has been the sissy GUI administrative tool of choice for Oracle databases. Oracle10G's OEM is radically different than previous versions. In this blog, I'll provide you with a high level overview of Oracle10G OEM and Giant Eagle's OEM testing plan.

Let's take a quick look at our first 10G data warehouse database. Well begin by reviewing some basic reports that describe the general database environment and database structures. As a gift from your friendly ex-Oracle instructor, I'll also provide you with the scripts that generated them. I'll finish the blog with an overview of our Oracle10G testing strategies.

Before we continue with our discussion on Oracle 10G, I'd like to take a quick literary detour into the world of 10G on Linux. One of our warehouse developers, Jason Heese, has been testing and benchmarking Oracle10G on Linux for some time now. Since I respect Jason's opinion, I thought I'd reserve this blog for Jason's thoughts on the Oracle10G/Linux combination.

In my last blog, I reviewed some of of the Oracle10G parameter changes uncovered by our resident 10G researcher, Jim Dojonovic. In this next installment of our epic 10G testing saga, Jim reviews the CREATE DATABASE DDL statement, double checks the operating system environment to ensure the statement will run successfully and finally executes the DDL to create our data warehouse test database.
