The average time it takes competent (the operative word here being
competent) Windows admins to learn Linux or most flavours of UNIX
sufficient to work with a database product whether Oracle or Sybase
or whatever) is less than a week.
Oracle on any flavor of UNIX is identical to Oracle on Windows once
the initial installation is completed. The only skill required after
that is minor variations of basic DOS navigation skills.
If you were talking about moving an entire enterprise I would agree
with you. But one or two database servers. I'd come in and do it in a
single day and so would many consultants.
