Indeed, Oracle documentation on ASM is really awful and this book could be a good for beginning to understand ASM and how it works.The Human Flyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03489518270084955004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19771507.post-42782646387629832002008-03-03T02:22:00.000-08:002008-03-03T02:22:00.000-08:00Hello Jaffar,I too have read and reviewed this boo...Hello Jaffar,<BR/><BR/>I too have read and reviewed this book: http://jarneil.wordpress.com/2008/01/02/book-review-oracle-automatic-storage-management/<BR/><BR/>Like yourself, I found several chapters that offered very little, and indeed the amount of screenshots seemed to me, to be just fillers.<BR/><BR/>However the documentation on ASM from Oracle is woeful, and I suspect a lot of people treat ASM like a black box, so reading chapter 10, and 11 in particular will give people a better understanding of how ASM actually works.<BR/><BR/>Of course, a lot of DBAs probably can just live with the docs, which tell you all you need to know to get ASM up and running.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
