 ASM HANDS-ON TRAINING
Server Environment Settings and Aliases

Summary

The server where the labs of this seminar will work is configured with tcsh as the default oracle user shell. A .cshrc file
containing several aliases was setup to easy moving around and executing repetitive commands.

On this document there is a general explanation of how the environment can be used.

Available Aliases

At any moment you can type what to get this list of available aliases:
