It is advisable for each PC system using the ORACLE RDBMS that a single person be appointed as the Database Administrator (DBA). The DBA should be responsible for managing and maintaining the GPMDB. The DBA should have sole authority to install or re-initialise the ORACLE RDBMS, expand the database, load, update and backup the GPMDB, and grant userID’s (often with different privileges). This chapter is directed at your DBA.
