I preferred the Oracle 8 Black Book for Windows NT, June 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Oracle8 Database Administration on Windows NT with CDROM (Paperback)
I found this book too lightweight on conveying real hands-on skills for using Oracle 8 for Windows NT. The focus seems more on a combination of theory and hands-on, achieving neither. Since I am using the OEM for most DB admin the combination of command line and GUI contributed to the confusion.

This book is very productive, June 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Oracle8 Database Administration on Windows NT with CDROM (Paperback)
I guess the author is a populor teacher in his class. This book has covered most of the requireed knowledge for an Oracle DBA. It contains many figures which will save readers a lot of time in understanding and exercising. The text is simple but to the point. The attached CDROM is not of much interest to me.

Good for installation, Backup & recovery, and basic tuning, November 28, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Oracle8 Database Administration on Windows NT with CDROM (Paperback)
This book gives you a good explanation of how Oracle is implemented on Windows NT. It does a good job covering installation, backup and recovery, and basic tuning. However, I purchased this book specifically for more information on Job Scheduling through Oracle Enterprise Manager. This topic is not covered in this book.
