The Tru64 UNIX-Oracle9i Cluster Quick Reference meets the needs of Tru64 UNIX system administrators everywhere. When a new UNIX server arrives, the sys adim installs and configures everything, using a wide variety of available books. The required information is not available in just one handy reference source. The relevant commands are now documented with clear examples without including every single option for every single command and it contains specifics on Oracle. The Oracle documentation has minimal information on specific platforms and most of the current documentation is not platform specific at all. This text covers only the most common practices and examples, so the task is greatly simplified.
