Re: 9i database create script - My, how things have changed

2002-12-03 Thread Connor McDonald
Some simple options:

1) The 9.x installer still gives the option of
creating scripts in the old fashioned way.  The key is
not to choose a template database.  A little
scrubbing and they work fine...but man do they take a
while to create a db nowadays.

2) My preferred option is to create a skeleton db with
just system/undo/temp/pfile (using the installer or
otherwise) and get everything just right.  Then zip it
up with the text of a create controlfile and voila!
You have a db ready to go - whenever you need a new
one, you just unzip, hack the controlfile to rename it
and bingo...super quick and be definition, all your
databases have the same basic starting point

Re: 9i database create script - My, how things have changed

2002-12-02 Thread Jared . Still
Would you be interested a set of KSH scripts that generate
the SQL scripts to create a database?

These are for 8i.  I've started to modify for 9i differences, but
haven't gotten too far.

Not too much work to modify them.

Lemme know,

Jared
