Lost in Space
Hi Folks,
You are hired as a DBA for an Oracle 8.1.7 database on Solaris. You are new to Unix. The system admin is on sick leave for a week.
What type of unix commands should you be using just to check the database?
I already setup my laptop to talk to the database but I wanted to access the following on the box.( I know I am getting some Unix books)
but just need some quick commands to do these things.
How do I get to the
-Alert log
-Init.ora...(That I can get to it from the command line) but need to access that on unix box.
-Check datafiles
-Check tablespaces
Any recommendations and advice are welcomed
Thank you
