Thus Spoke Herman

In previous OEM posts I have been dropping the Repository in a variety of ways. In a moment of Instruction Reading, something I rarely do because I love to conform to stereotypes, I found this little obvious-when-you-know beauty:

$ORACLE_HOME/sysman/admin/emdrep/bin/RepManager

[oracle@bbmos01 ~]$ $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/admin/emdrep/bin/RepManager $HOST $PORT $SID -action drop
Enter SYS user’s password :
Enter repository user name : SYSMAN

Ho hum. It can do it all.

Originally I posted this on Facebook as a “Please Forward” Super Dickery Spam Wall Application Tag Entry:

My name is XXXX,

I am a healthy person living in relative comfort in a developed western high life expectancy country and have never experienced wars, terrible plagues or witnessed suffering on a national scale. The worst I have endured is the outpouring of national sycophancy when some princess we have never personally met died. I don’t see dead people. All the elderly from my society are hidden away so I don’t have to deal with impending infirmity and death. I have wall to wall entertainment in my not so humble abode. I complain about being delayed by minutes to travel the width of the country. I complain about not seeing the world when I have travelled round it many times. I complain about being bored when the knowledge of the world is at my fingertips. I complain about the weather as if it makes a fucking difference. I complain about other people complaining.

Above all I am a spoilt, self centered, wannabe nihilist who understands little of reality, wisdom or basic human kindness. I am a wanker of the highest order and spend my over rated days dicking around on the internet thinking I am both better than everyone else and also somehow reaching out and justifying my own worthless sense of overbloated smugness.

I also am so up my own rich food ruined anus that I assume that others need to see this round robin old as the internet chain article/letters bollocks so please do the world a favour and forward this on to as many people as electronically possible. Otherwise I will shoot my cat, your cats, god’s cat and all the cute baby seals I can before turning my swiss army pen knife on my own body in a pathetic attempt to try and get some attention.

Love XXXXX
