#11: DON'T attempt to use OID 9.0.1 on Linux with Replication because it DON'T work reliably! #12: DON'T use CURSOR_SHARING=FORCE in versions below 8.1.7.4 without expecting problems. #13: DON'T work against your Duhvelopers and SysAdmin Nazis. You're all working to the same goal (or should be). #14: DON'T expect MetaLink to have all the answers. #15: DON'T allow any third party vendor that uses an Oracle DB to setup the database. It will perform poorly, be all but completely unrecoverable, and will not adhere to any of the standards you've put into place for your company's protection and benefit. #16: DON'T accept a vendor's requirement for unsupported versions of Oracle. #17: DON'T be unyielding to compromise if it benefits your company (see #13). #18: DON'T take your love to town. (Oh Ruuuuuuuuuby....)
