To run a script on all database instances currently running on an Oracle RAC cluster node I have used the following:

for sid in `ps -ef |grep pmon|grep -v grep|grep -v ASM|cut -d_ -f3-|sort -u|grep ^dw`; do export ORACLE_SID=$sid; sqlplus “/ as sysdba”  @security_audit.sql; done

The Gap is the difference between the ideal economic balance point and the current reality. For businesses you want the gap to be large – High demand and low supply helps keep profits high.

Notes

As with all things in life, there is a light and a dark side. The principles in this book can be used for good or bad. The good leads to light, the bad to the dark side. The dark side is always terminal.

Law 1

Never Outshine the Master

Make your boss look good to his boss. Support your bosses goals and objectives. If you try to keep all of the credit and all of the experience your pace will be slower. You can not take both the experience and the credit away from every situation. You get to pick one: credit or experience. Give your boss the credit and you get to keep the experience. Doing this will give your more opportunities for exposure to new and better challenges to gain more experience. After you have gained enough skill, power, influence and experience then you can start collecting the credit but not before.

Law 2

Never Put Too Much Trust In Friends, Learn How to Use Enemies

Without enemies around us, we grow lazy. An enemy at our heels sharpens our wits, keeping us focused and alert. If you don’t have an enemy or a competitor, then find one.

A typical cause is fragmentation of the shared pool due to a lack of sharable SQL. But that is not the sole cause (e.g. have a look at Metalink note 556140.1).

…i would suggest going back to the basics – the oracle server concepts manual. once you’ve read that, read it again. next read the developers guide, next read the performance tuning guide…just keep reading…read tom’s books also! once you think you’ve read enough, come back here, and start trolling through performance related questions that tom has already answered. finally if you still have a question, ask it then. from AskTom

Participants that are calling in remotely should mute their lines

• Use the mute button
• Don’t type on your keyboard unless you are muted
• Don’t type on your keyboard on the same table as the conference speakerphone
• Get an attendee list so you know who in the conference meeting in-person and on the phone.
• Use screen sharing (WebEx) capability to broadcast power-point slides
• Have one or more people assigned to take meeting minutes or notes. Distribute the notes to all conference attendees
• For large conferences, >15 people, have a conference coordinator that can monitor the quality of the conference call.
• Know the cost of the call. Charges are typically based on a price per participant per minute.
• Have an out-of-band communication channel. Instant Message (IM), Internet Relay Chat (IRC), or the WebEx text chat tools will allow people to send messages to the conference coordinator or others without interrupting the conference call in progress.

Everyone in business will have to deal with people, relationships, communications, and writing.

When you or your company fails to deliver — then you apologize to the customer and make it right to restore equity.
