Good luck. When I worked for Oracle in 1998/99 they consolidated all their e-mail servers at Corp. in Calif. What a mess. Something was wrong with the hard drives that continued to fail and we would go for days without e-mail. The primary communication media at Oracle is e-mail. This lasted about 2 months when they decided to replace all the HD's with a different model.
