Product Overview
Database Operations Center enables experienced Enterprise Database Server database administrators (DBAs) to perform familiar administrative tasks—such as recovery, reorganization, backup, analysis, and Remote Database Backup configuration—in a Windows environment. Database Operations Center can help you with the execution and monitoring (through e-mail notification) of database tasks. Database schema management is also integrated into this product.
Database Operations Center offers the following advantages:
-
Ease of use. Database administrators and managers can use a familiar Windows interface to navigate Enterprise Database Server databases.
-
Improved productivity. Database Operations Center interoperates with Enterprise Database Server utilities and generates syntax.
-
Flexibility. A command-line interface is available for those DBAs who prefer to enter command syntax instead of using the GUI.

Saved Requests. The Command Store Utility (CSU) enables users to save, reuse, and share requests.
