The requirements can directly be derived from the above paragraph and the
intended goal: First, you need an Oracle Database Server up and running,
otherwise you won't need any of the DBAHelper scripts :) Second, the instance(s)
of this Database Server you want DBAHelper to work on need to have PL/SQL
installed, otherwise the DBAHelper scripts cannot be processed by them. And
last but not least, you need a Unix Shell (the DBAHelper scripts have been
successfully tested with the Bash Shell). This does imply that the DBAHelper
scripts do run in *nix environments (Linux, Solaris, AIX, etc. - but they are
not tested on all platforms, so reports are welcome). There are Shell
environments available for Windows as well, like CygWin - but since I didn't
test any scripts in those environments I cannot guarantee that they will run
with those; again, reports are welcome.
