The very first thing to learn as a database administrator - backup and recovery.
And learn it thoroughly. The second thing to learn is performance monitoring and
tuning. After all, a poorly performing database is better than a dead (or
completely removed from the system) database.....
Good luck to you. And something to note - this list will be your best guide to
'how does this REALLY work?'

Hi All:
In a couple of weeks I will be joining another company as an
Oracle DBA.
This will be the first time for me as a DBA. Although I a
have a good idea
of what the job entails, I could use some helpful hints from
some of you
folks that have spent time in the trenches.
TIA,
Ken
