Oracle DBA Scripts and Tips

It has come to our attention that an Oracle Development company have copied our scripts without our permission and are using them as part of their own products for which they are charging users a license fee.

As a result of this, we have decided to suspend access to our DBA scripts until further notice and we regret the impact that this decision will inevitably have upon genuine users of the scripts repository.

We are continuing to monitor the situation and would encourage you to check back in the future for developments.
