Once you're inside Oracle's walls (e.g. SQL*Plus, RMAN, lsnrctl, etc.) it's 
pretty much the same as on any other OS, but if you have to do anything at the 
OS level there is a big learning curve - even for simple things like changing 
directories, editing/manipulating files, checking filesystem space.  The 
commands and options are VERY different from Unix.  I'd say if the tuning 
you're being asked to do is within the database, e.g. tuning queries, Oracle 
parameters, etc., then you should be fine, but if it's tuning at the OS level 
that is needed, then run away unless you have lots of time to spend learning 
DCL.

Brandon
