Unconventional Oracle Installation (part 1)

[Martintfre]

awesome, I am usually ready for the straight jacket during upgrades, and I don't even have RAC.

This is good. Installing Oracle on Windows is easy, but I don't know of any DBA that installs it on a 32-bit Windows (much less Vista). Most install it on a 64-bit Linux distro. This takes changes to kernel parameters, addition of new users and groups, dependency installs and tons of other command line alterations. Once you do all this, then you can start the actual installation (which is what you saw). Plus there is configuration of RAC, reallocation of data files. Funny video though.

How about another unconventional method IBM uses? They create an Oracle DB by blowing on their keys. Guess what their database is called?

[nandanavanam]

Simply Brilliant, 5 Stars with the nose :D

[gdmccl]

[GoofyChristoffer]

Tusind tak is the correct spelling

[ExtremeDBA]

Tusind tak it is then!

Jag tackar!

All of this comes from a article from a danish magasin called "Computer Reseller News".

I would love to pay IBM 7500 pounds for the same as he did in the video!!!

[siiiv]

haha!!! awesome!

[SwitchBL8]

Put a user (or whatever loser) behind the console. Hold their hands behind their backs, put the phone on speaker and call my company. Our DBA's will tell the user/loser what to type. Cheaper than hiring a DBA and letting him (her) type with his nose....

[orlat84]

Very cool! Is it really that simple? Than why the DBAs are that busy and earn that much money? :) Or this is also a myth :)

[Halhorse]

Very creative! But they talk funny. Is there a version in English?

[kekeRgood]

most danish people don't speak english, they speak danish using english words. and that translates to what you see in the movie there. very sad.

[kristianthrane]

Thats a classic - why this uptight approach to danish accent? :)

[mtangaa]

On the other hand we know how to spell Danish and English ;-)

[visitDenmark]

Americans talk funny English, too!

[toomuchtube]

One can only assume this is a satirical comment, My experience with English speaking Danes has shown them to have a better command of English than most Americans.

[GaleAnders]

You kinda think in a funny way. Is there an international version?

I once hosed a database with a single appendage. Don't think they would let me show that you YouTube, however.

Nice work. Ricky Sanchez would be proud. He always told me the best DBAs were nosy.

What is your hourly billing rate for that schnozz?

[dtseiler]

hey! This could put us DBAs out of work if our bosses find out how easy this is! ;)

[patrickwolfat]

Great!

[toomuchtube]

That's putting your nose to the grindstone!
