There is also the 1-man shop type of dba where the DBA /Domain Admin/Janitor pretty much does everything.It really depends on the organization as to where the DBA falls in the "Tree."
It is easier to just focus on the DBA work and only have access to those things you really need (i.e. not being a domain admin 😉 ).
Jason is that your kind of shop, by chance? mine's not a one man show, but i did make the coffee this morning 🙂
