Bolting on an extra module

I’ve been a UNIX sysadmin for something like a decade now. Way back toward the start of that I did a little bit of Sybase DBA work, just basic stuff. Never touched it again.

Until today. Remembering lots of stuff, starting to feel comfortable with it again: I don’t remember everything but I’m in that dangerous phase where I feel confident I can figure most things out reasonably quickly.

In any event it looks like my job will be evolving to UNIX sysadmin with a bit of backup DBA thrown in. It’s Sybase, so not quite as marketable in the longer term as Oracle, but I’m enjoying it anyway.

And it’s a whole lot more fun than ClearCase.
