Oracle SYS/SYSTEM sharing of passwords

Unfortunately, we have an obligation to not have passwords for sys/system shared even among the DBA staff. Someone said an Oracle article which details not sharing passwords. The problem is that security sees this issue as a threat. I supported until I'm blue in the face that these two accounts are required by the dba team. Does anyone have any information on this slot holds pass along? Things that worked and even those who do not? The real problem comes into play when you start looking on behalf of oracle cron jobs which have seen most of the privileged passwords.

Thank you!

Regarding cron jobs.
Here's what we do...
1. create a permanent account to make these kinds of tasks, something like "dbsdba" on the server.
2. in the database create an external analog account identified, ops$ dbsdba.
3. grant the account of dbsdba ops$ the privileges necessary to accomplish its tasks.
4 use dbsdba cron to schedule to the various substantive tasks. Because it is an external account identified, it can connect to.

  • By default for connections (SYS, SYSTEM, DBSNMP, SYSMAN) unavailable when SQLOpens

    I installed the 32-bit version of Oracle 11 g 2 on my Windows 7 x 64 system because the x 64 version would not install. I downloaded the 32-bit version of SQL Developer with JRE, but when I run the SQL Developer, default (SYS, SYSTEM, DBSNMP and SYSMAN) connections are not available.

    I entered the tnsnames directory on the database: screen Preferences, advanced and restarted my PC, but there is clearly something escapes me.

    Suggestions?


    Thank you.

    Hi Paul,.

    Once I connect to the network adapter, the default ID will appear?

    Using SQL Developer says (and I believe that this procedure works even if you cannot 'connect' to the local database):

    To create (automatically generate) a database connection for each unlocked user account in the Oracle database instance
    on the local system, right-click the Connections node and select Create Local Connections. The connections are placed in
    a folder named Auto-Generated Local Connections. Note that for these autogenerated connections (except for the one
    named system-), you will always be prompted for the password when you connect, and you cannot edit
    the user name or password in the connection properties dialog box.
    

    Then, if that what you ask in fact and you have a local database installed, then you must make sure that your database is running. Open a command line and try these commands:

    lsnrctl status

    If it is not already started, start it with

    lsnrctl start

    or not your administrator tools-> Services-> Oracle ListenerWindows (right click: Start)

    Hope this helps,

  • sys accepting twp user passwords

    Oracle 10.2.0 on Redhat Linux

    (1) you have a server running Red Hat Linux and Oracle databsaes to v 10.2.0 2 hosting. ?. ? (would be nice to know the last two parts of the version). We will call this SERVER-a computer

    (2) you have a separate computer, also under Red Hat Linux, you use as your client to connect to the databases on the server mentioned above. We call this CUSTOMER-A calculation.

    (3) when you try to connect to a database on SERVER-a CLIENT-A, you run sqlplus ON CLIENT-A (you're not using a ssh, telnet, or similar session to log on to the SERVER-A.

    (4) what is the value of remote_login_passwordfile on both databases? (can be different for everyone)?

    Please confirm or correct this.

  • Oracle 11g save the BC4J password in the database?

    In 10g, Oracle stores the password in the database encrypted in bc4j.xcfg.

    However, 11 g, it seems that Oracle is not saving the password in any file (I checked connections.xml and bc4j.xcfg). Oracle records db password in database system?

    I ask this question because we are going to deploy a Java ADF program on the production that I don't have access. I wonder if I need JDeveloper for access to the production environment to configure the credentials for the connection to BC4J in the database server.

  • Oracle 11i system - IZ0-232 Administration certification

    Hi all

    I worked as admin system for oracle 11i e-Business suite for over 2 years now and who was one of the reasons for which I decided to take the Oracle 11i my company administration system review already had self-training CD purchased at least 5 years for this certification. I gave the review two weeks ago and could not succeed (57%) that concepts of most of the questions I had in the exams were not covered in the old training material, that I had.

    Now, my question to everyone is that what should be my next step for training? Should I buy new Oracle will decrease self training CDs (new package costs $1200! don't know if the company who will refund!) or shall I seek other alternatives, like a book or any other similar material? Also, does anyone know any good book for getting trained in this review or any other material of training in addition to CDs?

    I want to take this test again as soon as possible. As a result, views on how to prepare (should I just stick to CD, if I buy, etc.) will be useful!

    Help on any of these topics would be appreciated.

    Thank you
    GP

    GP,

    I managed to pass this review using the following:

    (1) 11i system administrator Fundamentals Training Manual
    http://education.Oracle.com/pls/web_prod-PLQ-dad/show_desc.redirect?DC=D14411GC30&p_org_id=&lang=&source_call=

    (2) Documentation of the oracle Applications system administrator set
    http://download-UK.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B25516_14/current/HTML/docset.html

    The training manual was useful, but I have to say that all of the documentation has been my main reference to prepare for this exam. I did not have the CD for self-training for this review, but I think that all the documentation topics for review and should be sufficient. Given that you've got 57% (which is so close to the 60% pass mark) on your first attempt, so I think you manage to take the exam next time if you prepare well and go through the system administrator manuals.

  • How do I uninstall the product from the Oracle EPM system

    Hi all

    y at - there no way how to uninstall a product of the Oracle EPM system?

    I don't want to uninstall the entire system and install again, I want to just uninstall the specific product.

    BR

    Vladislav

    OK, you can safely remove the service once the components have been uninstalled.

    Let me know which are the components you want to uninstall.

    To check the inventory:

    Go to the directory OPATCH. This gives the entire list.

    lsinventory-detail opatch - oh -jre

    Ex: opatch lsinventory-detail - oh D:/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/jre-D:, Oracle, Middleware, jdk160_45

    If you want to make sure that applications are not anywhere, you can also check in the following locations

    1. connect to the Weblogic administration Console, http://servername:7001 / console. Confirm if the managed server is removed by going to the servers

  • CSS files/oracle/webcenter/portalapp/shared / is not updated

    Hello

    I created a portal with 11.1.1.7.0 application, I run this app with built-in server, I changed the server built-in to 10.3.6 instead of the original 10.3.5 as this blog "The Incident Archive: Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6 Server integrated upgrade to 10.3.6'." " I saved the CSS for the page template in the folder/oracle/webcenter/portalapp/shared/pagetemplates/css, as 'Oracle WebCenter training portal online', 'creation and use of the Page templates in portal Oracle WebCenter Applications'. However, after I've updated the CSS files and redeploy the application. I found that the application was still using the old CSS files. If I save the CSS files in other folders (< root app > / css), it works fine. I tried to clean up the temporary files of built-in server, also clean the SDM like this "Java ADF Webcenter UCM Weblogic SOA: ADF: clean your drs, mds using the Script file'." " It does not work. No idea how I can do with that? Thank you.

    Hi Timmy.

    "I created a portal with 11.1.1.7.0 application.

    I think you mean you use JDeveloper 11.1.1.7, but how WebCenter version 11.1.1.7 or 11.1.1.8? Since 11.1.1.8 Oracle does not recommend using the / shared folder external CSS, Images or JS.

    The second thing is on the CSS (not the skin) external storage in an SDM, path is not a good practice.

    Regarding your question:

    Take a look at the packaging of the . EAR on the files inside. Inside should be a file called AutoGenerated.mar with your portal resources. Using WinRAR or another program study that the CSS is changed. Is maybe a problem of cache of your browser.

    In addition, take a look at the web.xml file setting:

    
    org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.CHECK_FILE_MODIFICATION
    true
    
    

    During the development of tour to true to instruct the server to check on changes to files in the case of iterative development is disabled.

    When deploying in production environments, that it must return again to fake

    My recommendation is:

    • Put your static files (no portals resources) outside the MDS (oracle/webcenter/portalapp...)
    • With iterative development you don't have to reboot or redeploy the application when changing CSS, JS, page templates...

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards.

  • SYS, SYSTEM and SYSAUX when full update of the database.

    I took a full export of database using below command
    expdp "'/ as sysdba'" full=Y directory=DPUMP_DIR dumpfile=expdp_11032011.dmp logfile=expdp_11032011.log 
    Now, I need to import this file in a different database.

    When schema refresh usually let us down all the object in this scheme and start to cool, but when you do the back upward, we have to drop all the user?
    what the user sys, system and sysaux?

    In general, you need not do anything with the SYS and SYSTEM schemas. Just let it export and import of run and ignore the schemas SYS or SYSTEM errors during import.

    I've never seen a database where SYS MMR SYSTEM does not use default tablespace: I think it is impossible because it is part of the process of creation of database that you cannot change.

  • Sharing of password does not

    THIS IS A REPOST...
    I have two computers at home, ZM001 and ZM002.  I recently had to reinstall the operating system (Windows 7 Professional, 64-bit) on ZM002.

    I still have my files and personal folders on ZM002 targeted to the personal folder on ZM001 through network location (e.g., \\ZM001\sharename) and then make available offline so that all files/folders are continuously on both computers.

    Search on ZM001 sharing for only me.

    Before you reinstall Windows on ZM002, as long as I used the same username and password on two computers, I could access these files/folders with no problems.  But there seems to be something I am missing now that translates Windows alert me that I don't have permission to access these files and folders.

    I did so that both computers are associated with the same work group, but am unsure of what the other missing link (s) I'm not recognize.

    How overcome this error access denied and go back to the way I was already using my local network?

    Thanks for any help.

    Z

    After taking a break from that for a good part of the day, I think I understand the question.  After narrowing through the back / comes to ZM002, I thought that if it may have been something I did or did not.

    It seems that my problem was to have set up and joined a "homegroup".  If I read correctly in, it turns out that by joining a "homegroup", the process of sharing check not only your username and password, but also the computer your username is associated with.  By comparison, when there is no homegroup in-between, the system does not seem to find the computer on which your username belongs.

    Thanks for the help/ideas that you could provide.

  • printing problems so that the system has user password.

    I faced a problem in my local network print, my printer is connected with system with windows 7 and there are 7 total in LAN system, only 2 PCs have windows 7 others have XP but the problem is that system B prints the document when I gave impression system coz one test (window 7) a password , another Xp system command in the print job, but when I delete the password of user accounts on the system A, B system (window 7) gives printing correctly, if you have any solution so tell me?

    Hello

    Password sharing is enabled by default for computers of working groups. When password sharing is enabled, people using other computers on your network cannot access your shared folders or printers unless they have a user account on your computer. There are two ways to enable file or printer sharing.

    I suggest to follow the steps provided and check if it helps.

    a. Open advanced by clicking the Start button, then on sharing settings Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click network and sharing Center, and then in the left pane, click change advanced sharing settings.

    b. expand the home or work network profile.

    c. under the password protected sharing, click turn off password protected sharing, and then click save changes.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

     

    For more information:

  • Win 8 homegroup sharing with password issue

    I have a few systems of windows 8 and I have joined in a homegroup. My question is, how can I do ask for a password when accessing the share? I've already enabled in advanced sharing settings of password protected sharing.

    Thank you for your answer, but I used the option of sharing folder for all my actions, but my other computers never requested a password when I access shares.

    ... But you use a homegroup, and this is what is passed, the credentials for the homegroup.  If you want to use standard network folder sharing, do not share the folder through the residential group option.
     
    In other words - if you want to be prompted for a network share of user name and password (valid user name and password you set up on the machine sharing the folder and gave permissions for the folder in question - the share permissions and file/folder) then you must STOP sharing this folder via homegroup on this computer and share it using Standard network share.

  • Oracle not available, shared memory realm does not exist

    Hello

    I have problem during the installation of XE on Windows 2003 R2 SP 2 Enterprise edition. I have uninstall oracle xe and still the same result. Finally, I uninstall the windows and start all over again, surprisingly the always the same result. FYI, we have normally no problem during installation because it is part of our system, we sell to our customers who require Oracle xe. It is the first time we have seen this issue.

    ORA-01034: Oracle not available
    ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist.

    Oracle XE and Auditor services is started in windows services.

    If we try to start the message occurred.

    SQL > connect sysdba virtue

    Connect to an instance is idle.
    SQL > startup
    ORA-44412: setting memory XE edition invalid or unspecified
    SQL >

    I can send you the journal oracle_xe, ora init and OpsBuildAll.log to create the database.

    When compared with the installation of work, we have seen that the size of the oraclexe folder is less, it's just 233 MB while the work is beyond 1 GB. After investigation, discovered that the .dbf files is not available in the oradata folder, I tried to copy the files from one operation but the problem remains the same, no doubt there are a lot of missing more files.


    Appreciate your help on this.

    Thank you

    It's a shame I don't remember that one. The error message (and solution) was a similar here: {: identifier of the thread = 2322695}, with a real solution from here: {message identifier: = 10039007}
    (Just to keep an eye on this kind of mistake and to link the case...)

    I'm glad to hear that you solved the issue now, but I'm still a bit puzzled how this could happen. Possibly management of memory to the point 10.2 XE does not get what he expected on systems with Hyper-Threading or several used CPU sockets, maybe is the fact, it cannot apply/monitor limitations as expected. Still the error message is a bit misleading.
    It would be interesting to know if 11.2 XE gets along on this platform. Maybe you have time to give it a try someday? I would recommend to use 11.2 XE for a new installation anyway... ;)
    It is likely to work because no one reported an error like that with 11.2 XE and there are a few positions, mainly on licensing issues, which indicate 11.2 would also go on HT and dual socket machines, but it is possible that they still had something different on their machines.

  • Oracle XE - UTL_FILE - shared printer

    Hello

    I'm trying to recreate a production environment on XE.

    I am trying to send an order to print to a shared printer (share name label01).

    The computer that runs the XE database is called cobrademo.

    When I try the following command utl_file.fopen ('\\cobrademo\label01', 'test.txt', 'w'), I get the ora-29280 invalid directory path.

    When I change the directory to a directory on the cobrademo machine, it works fine.

    The solution of mapping to a shared printer util_file works also in production.

    XE service runs as a user called OracleDBA, which has also been granted access to the shared printer.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    When I try the following command utl_file.fopen ('\\cobrademo\label01', 'test.txt', 'w'), I get the ora-29280 invalid directory path.

    2 fundamental issues. The Oracle server must be able to resolve the NetBIOS hostname to an IP address. Second, the current Windows user that runs the Oracle server process, needs to have access to this UNC (reading and writing in your case).

    A simple method to test is under this Windows user logon (usually Oracle) on the Oracle database server. Open a command console window. Type the following command:
    + {noformat} net view \\cobrademo{noformat}+

    In the event of failure, then get the IP address of this server cobrademo and add similar following to c:\Windows\System32\Drivers\Etc\lmhosts :
    cobrademo

    If the net view command to work, trying to access (read, write or card) NetBIOS label01 called service/share. For example
    + {noformat} echo "This is a test" > \\cobrademo\label0{noformat}+

    This should work in an automated way - so no input from keyboard/user for example, specify a user name and/or password to perform NetBIOS calls and access work.

    PS. Note that this is not a question related to PL/SQL or SQL languages. Please choose a forum appropriate for the subject of your question in the future. Thank you.
