Connect as SYSDBA or SYSOPER

Does anyone have a sample on how to connect as either SYSDBA or SYSOPER through 0040?
Thank you in advance,
Ben

Hi,
First, from the 8.1.7 CD, install the 8i Management Server components option. This will install the management server componenents on your disk.
Then from the Enterprise Manager menu, run the configuration assistant, which will create the Management server service for you (NT) and create a repository.
The connect from the Enterprise Manager Console and connect using SYSMAN and password oem_temp. From the Menu, select discoverer/refresh node. Then you have to add the database to the node (it will be detected automatically from server running the Management server or the Intelligence Agent. )
Then you can connect to the database using sys/<password> and choose SYSDBA role !
Hope this helps

i could only connect as NORMAL. i don't have a management server.
or do i have to log as administrator in order to connect as SYSDBA or SYSOPER?

Difference between Sysdba and Sysoper

Hi,
While connecting with SYS what is the difference between connecting as Sysdba or Sysoper.
Thanks in advance.

SYSOPER is less privileged than SYSDBA.
SYSDBA can only create a database, but SYSOPER cannot issue CREATE DATABASE command. This is the one difference i know, but there are some 2 or 3 more differences, i guess.

hi,

i have google about this error and see that some people use Oracle.DataAccess.Client namespace to solve this error. but i cant find this namespace reference.
i want to connect to oracle in c# 2005 as user id = sys.
so , please help me.
thanks

it should be there regardless of the version you installed, go into your GAC and give it a look over (C:\Windows\assembly) the Oracle.** should be there after a successful installation. It is actually in your best interest to get the latest and greatest, the versions are backward compatible (I believe they all work to 9i++)
You can also goto
%ora_home%\odp.net
it will have sample c# and vb applications there
(%ora_home% tends to be c:\oracle\product\#####\Client_1\)
Have a look over the odp.net demos, that may very well put you on the correct track to getting things working.

Connecting as sysdba / sysoper

Hi Guys, If I do this
connect / as sysdba
connect / as sysoper
I am connected but how do I ensure that it prompts me for a sysdba / sysoper password before it connects me.
Thank you.

and the exact to connect would be
$sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
or
$sqlplus
username:/ as sysdba
password:yourwish/nopassword/anything
or
$sqlplus /nolog
sql> conn / as sysdba
But for all these things you need to set up ORACLE_SID,ORACLE_HOME,PATH varibales
but dont use OS authentication

How to get SYSDBA or SYSOPER credentials

Hi,
I am having SYS credentials. But I want to know SYSDBA or SYSOPER credentials.
How can I check in Database to get them?
DB:11g.
I am trying to connect using windows GUI it is asking for anyone of those SYSDBA or SYSOPER credentials

Hulk wrote:
I have newly set up my Oracle 11g Database under 'administrator' account in new Windows2008 Server.
From my oracle batch jobs I am trying to connect DB as shown: SQLPLUS /@%DBName%
as this line it is throwing logon denied - error message.
My Old DB is 8i and Server is WindowsNT ,user account ='zadministrator'.
Why was it throwing error?Unfortuntately you did not show us the actual error message. Instead you chose to give us your interpretation of it. "logon denied" could be a lot of things. An actual error message, including the ora-nnnn number will tell us what it is.
And you didn't tell us if you tried this connection from the database server or a client machine.
Copy and paste from a command session is a wonderful thing, but only if you use it.

Connect to SYSDBA from inside SQLplus? Default password?

Ok, I could call SQLplus with the SYSDBA user as
sqlplus / as sysdba
but assume I am in a SQLplus session as SYSTEM user and I just want to quick switch to SYSDBA
through a "conn" command and execute some instructions?
How can I do this? How is the default password of SYSDBA (and SYSOPER) ?
the following does not work:
SQL>conn SYSDBA/sysdba
How else can I connect?

PeterPeter,
Well first of all, there is no user called SYSDBA, Its a role not a user. Here is the link which tells what this role contains and another SysOPER also,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/dba.htm#sthref137
Now the comamnd that you have given, connect sysdba/sysdba, is wrong fron start to finish as there is no user like this. One may think that the option to quickly switch can be setting the current schema to sys but that also doesn't work for SYS user,

Connecting as SYSDBA from Remote Machine

Hello,
I've installed Oracle8.6.1 on Linux6.2,& i've installed DBA studio on one my windows'NT machine.
When i want to connect as SYSDBA from DBA Studio & Username/Password as system/manager it says --
ORA-01031 Insufficient Privileges
but i'can connect as SYSOPER & Normal.
Do anyone know how to solve this problem???
null

1. use orapwd command-line utility to create a new password file.
2. set remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive in initxxx.ora file.
3. restart instance.
4. use sql*plus or svrmgrl to grant sysdba right to the schemas you want to be able to logon with sysdba rights.

Connecting as sysdba different client versions

Hi !!
I've installed client software ver. 8.0 (Designer 6i), Oracle 8.1.7. Client and Oracle Client 9i, over Win2k Prof. There is a script for run an installation process, whose try to execute "connect system@instance as sysdba". In this moment instance could be DBOra81 (RDBMS Oracle 8.1.7.) or DBOra90 (RDBMS Oracle 9.0.1.1.1). Testing the installation script, I found it doesn't work changing the Primary Oracle Home in all cases:
* Oracle Primary Home DEFAULT_HOME
SqlPlus 8.0 can't connect any instance. I get ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
SqlPlus 8.1 connect successfully in both DBOra81 and DBOra90.
SqlPlus 9.0 can't connect any instance. ORA-01031: insufficient privileges again.
* Oracle Primary Home Ora81: The same cases
* Oracle Primary Home Ora90: The Same Cases.
Why I can't connect as sysdba with Oracle 9i client software ?
Thank's in advise !!

Error connecting as sysdba

hi all,
i m using oracle 11g ie 11.1.0.6.0... my OS version is solaris10. The OS got corrupted and was again re-installed...Oracle was installed in different mount point,so there was no problem from oracle side as creating the oracle user and the relevent groups were done.
But when connecting as sysdba ie
sqlplus "/as sysdba" gives
ERROR:
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
but is able to connect as
sqlplus /nolog
SQL>conn sys/****** as sysdba
connected
this problem is occuring after OS-re-installation

Hi,
Please check if OSDBA operating system group was assigned to O/S user.

Connecting as sysdba returns ORA-01017: invalid username/password

SQL Developer on my Win7 x64 Enterprise machine with Oracle 11gR2 Express was working fine until I tried to install the ODAC connectors so I could use Oracle as a data source for C# and VB in Visual Studio 2010.
The connection properties are:
Connection name "/ as sysdba"
Role "default"
Connection Type "basic"
OS Authentication checked
Hostname "localhost"
Port 1521
SID "orcl"
These are the same as when SQL Developer was working.
If I try to log on to SQL*Plus at the user-name prompt with "/ as sysdba", I get "insufficient privileges".
Where and what do I check to fix this?
Thanks.

>
Where would I check for DOMAIN/USER entries?
select username, authentication_type from dba_users;With the prefix, there should be a database user e.g. "OPS$MYDOM\MYUSER" with external identification.
But with Connection type Basic, I assume you would not be able to connect anyway.
Try type TNS to see if that works or changes anything. (That is, if corresponding db user exists for OS authentication.)
Do you have a requirement to use OS authentication? Could you instead use a database user with a password, i.e. uncheck OS Authentication in SQL Developer?
The connections in SQL Developer are the Auto-Generated Local Connections:
/ as sysdbaI've found a few quirks in SQL Developer 3.0.04 with the auto-generated connection named "/ as sysdba". But right now I don't see that its relevant to this case.
Just create your own connection instead. If you need sysdba administrative connection, change Role in connection properties.
>
By the way, the password for SYSMAN will expire in 5 days. How do I update the password?You should separate questions in separate threads and related forums, but lookup the ALTER USER command in the SQL Reference book.

Problem connecting as sysdba ....

Hi,

Having set the ORACLE_HOME , ORACLE_SID and created the oradim i 'm trying to connect as sysdba...but the error ORA-01031 is appeared....
SQL> conn /as sysdba
I defined the Administrator user to the ORA_DBA group and tried the above but the same problem insists.....
What may be the reason ...??? Do i have to restart the server after setting the Administrator user to the ORA_DBA group....???
Note: I use Ora Db10g. v.2
Thanks a lot

Connecting as sysdba in OEM

I can connect as sysdba fine through sqlplus.
I can not connect as sysdba using OEM, the famous
'ORA-01031 - insufficient privileges' appears.
What has to be setup to allow 'system' to sign on
to a database using OEM? (Oracle 8.1.6)
Thanks.

Jerry,
If your administrators will be using the OEM console, they do not need to be defined in the database password file. You can get them sysdba prvileges in a database known by OEM by having them access it as a already defined sysdba user.
1. In the OEM console, there is an option called "Manage Administrators" under the "System" menu at the top of the console window. I don't have my server up, but I think I have this right.
2. Define your user as administrator here.
3. When they attempt to access a database from the console, they will be asked how they wish to connect.
4. Have them enter the username/password of a user already defined in that database with sysdba prvileges.
5. Have them select "sysdba" in the "connect as" box.
6. Have them check the save as prefered profile or something like that. ** This one is optional. **
7. Finish connecting to the database.
This way, they don't have to be defined in each database password file and are all managed from the OEM console.

Hi,
I have two servers with Oracle 10.2.0.4 running (RHEL 5). In one server I am able to connect using "Connect /as sysdba", in another I am unable to do so. It gives
