RE: Versioning the Database !
Used to use that method in a former company with our DB2 database. We had one DB with schemas of DBPROD, DBTEST, DBSTST, and DBRTST. At various testing stages we would move the objects to a different schema The application had a variable for who owned the structure. That way we could be developing (DBTEST), in the development test phase (DBRTST), into user acceptance testing (DBSTST), and into production (DBPROD) with different versions all at the same time. I could see it happening with Oracle as well..but why not just use different instances to house the different stages of development. That way you can have everything under the same schema and not have to worry about any synonym or schema switching. -Original Message- [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, December 27, 2002 1:44 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I am in a peculiar situation where the development & design is happening in parellel.

Re: Versioning the Database !
I generally follow as a practice to keep a variable v_version at package level or any script level . ( i have only packages ) and this v_version is nothing but $header$ in mks . This way I can always run a query to find out object versions in db . This is REALLY helpful specially when code is wrapped in production . -oramagic .

Versioning the Database !
Hi, I want to version the Database for development, IT, QA and staging environment. Can some one suggest different methods and best possible approach to maintain the database.
