Got much closer coordinating a PRODUCTION database move to a new server. Been on the phone with an app engineer in Utah, trying to get a teleconference call together to discuss back up maneuvers regarding their software in the event we get an Oracle hiccup. Their software talks to our database. We have an Oracle DBA capable of wizardry on our team at work so I honestly do not anticipate issues. I have given him users who will need tnsnames.ora file adjustments, plus their node names. Getting mixed signals from supervisor, think he may be a little jumpy. If something breaks, we'll fix it. I am in training downtown all day tomorrow. I passed the magic wand to my supervisor today at 4:45, told him if Utah emails me (supervisor is on the CC list) and says they can do the dry run teleconference on Wednesday, to accept that schedule, then tell them we need to go live on Thursday afternoon. It is really no big deal at all but some are making it unnecessarily difficult. The "people factor" is always more difficult to me than anything in this arena.
