How to Disable the ability for a sys admin to log into Oracle?

Hello -
I want to put security in place so the SA will not be able to log in at all to Oracle. How can I do that? The SA can su over to any user. Would I have to use a password file, and only have specific users in the database has sysdba authority?
Many Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Basically, there is no way to do that.
However, there is a kind of "workaround" to do that. Take a look at metalink note 50507.1in the section called: Disabling Operating System Authentication
It is not a "nice" solution, but should work.

  • Can we disable the ability for users to sites and subsites in their SharePoint 365 Profile Site?

    We have plans to roll out a hybrid SharePoint with our profiles in the Cloud. Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the ability for users to create sites under their Profile site in the cloud? As it stands out of the box, it looks like every
    user can create as many sites as they want under their Profile. There is a concern that users will "self-service" their own solutions without going through the proper channels of governance. Has anyone had to deal with this or have experience
    on how to restrict this functionality? Thanks in advance! :)

    HI Ken,we can disable this by blocking the self service site creation option.By default its disabled.
     To disable the "Self-Service Site creation" option, just follow the steps given below:
    1.   Go to the Central admin.
    2.   Go to the "Application Management" & Select the specific web application.
    3.   Now, you can see the "Self-Service Site Creation" option in the Ribbon Menu.
    4.   Click on that Menu item and Select the "Off" option in the pop-up window

    Thanks in Advance

    I don't think there is a way for Edge Code. I'm not sure about Reflow.
    Why don't you just upgrade? That will stop the notifications.

  • Can you Disable the ability for Users to Register Themselves on Help Desk?

    I researched but could not find the answer to this.
    I did find the "Do not allow users to edit profile" but I could not find where you can take away the ability for a user to Register at the help desk.
    Meaning I want to be the only one able to create "End User" accounts. I will then give them their information.
    Is this possible?
    Thanks,

    Hi Experts,
    May i know how to deactivate the create and delete attachment option if the status of the order in IW32 is already TECO? Please help

    I have found my own answer.  If your user type is setup as 'Service', you will not be have the "Services for Object" icon on IQS23.   If you need the icon to perform the that service, you must change the user type to Dialog from Logon Data.

  • HT4061 How to disable the ESN for selling the iPad.

    I tried to sell my ipad2 to Gazelle. They refused to accept it because they said the ESN was still active. I told them to return it to me. I called ATT(my carrier) and they deleted the account. However Gazelle says the ESN is still there. I asked them to return it. When I get it back, how do I disable the ESN?

    No, I didn't.. I thought either they'd know that or they'd complain that they need the micro sim to test it. But thanks. I'll ask them.

  • How to disable the prompt for password when receiving a call on Lync mobile on iPhone

    We are doing a pilot on Lync 2013.  We have mobile phones: i Phones.
    When we are receiving a call, we are prompted to enter password to take the call, which in certain cases, might be a real irritant.  Is there a way to bypass, or simply removing this prompt?

    I am not aware of any password to receive calls (and certainly there's no option I am aware of within Lync mobility policy settings)
    Is this a phone password (i.e. such as the PIN code) or do you enter your AD password? 
    If it's the phone password then you can turn it off through Settings > Passcode, unless it set by company policy (i.e through ActiveSync policies in which case this is set through Exchange). Bear in mind that if it is your phone password then you'll have
    no security on your phone.
