Mysql也有跟Oracle的scott与employees相似的数据库，这样就免除了每次都要自己建表并插入数据了。
Mysql提供的供练习使用的数据库employees，下面地址：https://launchpad.net/test-db/employees-db-1/1.0.6
下载其中的employees_db-full-1.0.6.tar.bz2，之后按下列步骤解压缩，并安装。
1、解压文件
[root@rac1 opt]# tar -xjf employees_db-full-1.0.6.tar.bz2
[root@rac1 opt]# cd employees_db
[root@rac1 employees_db]# ls -al
总计 164724
