  • Create a new user for oracle 10G ASM instance with sysdba system privilege

    Hi,
    In our Golden Gate Project, we require the SYS user credential to connect to the Oracle 10g  ASM instance to read the database transaction logs.But our client is not providing the SYS user credential to  connnect to ASM instance.
    I'm getting the error message "ORA-01109:  database not open",When I tried to create a new user using the  below the steps in oracle 10g ASM instance
    1. Login using "sqlplus / as sysdba"
    2. Create user <username> identified by <password>;
    But in oracle 11g ASM instance, I'm able to create new  user  by connecting the ASM instance with SYSASM role without issues.
    Is there is any workaround to create a new user with sysdba system privilege in oracle 10g ASM instance?.
    Thanks in advance .

    Hi,
    Recreate the password file for the ASM instance as follows:
    Unix:
    orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/PWD<SID> password=<sys_password>
    Windows:
    orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/database/PWD<SID>.ora password=<sys_password>
    Now sys password is reset, we are ready to use sys for ASM management. I decided to create another user ASMDBA as I tried above.
    SQL> create user ASMDBA identified by test01;
    User created.
    SQL> grant SYSASM, SYSOPER to ASMDBA;
    Grant succeeded.
    SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
    USERNAME SYSDBA SYSOPE SYSASM
    SYS TRUE TRUE TRUE
    ASMDBA FALSE TRUE TRUE
    Please see this link : http://orachat.com/how-to-change-asm-sys-password-creating-sysasm-user-11g/

  • No of maximun users in oracle 10g express edition

    what is the maximum number of concurrent users (session) in oracle 10g express edition.
    coz right now, we have one server with oracle 10g express edition, and a front end application of asp.net (.net 1.1)

    The only limit that Oracle places on the number of concurrent users on an XE database is through the limit of 1GB of RAM. You can have as many concurrent sessions as you can open in 1GB of RAM.

  • What is the version of grant alter table, drop table to user in Oracle 10g?

    Hi,
    Oracle support "grant alter table and drop table" before, but I get the "invalid privilege" error in Oracle 10g. Oracle 10g have the "DROP ANY TABLE" and "Alter any table". Is these two means can drop and alter tables belonging to other users? How do I grant the total control (CRUD) of tables in the owner's schema to the owner in Oracle10g?
    Thanks,
    Jiang

    CREATE TABLE privilege grants complete control on owner's tables :
    SYS@db102 SQL> create user test01 identified by test01;
    User created.
    SYS@db102 SQL> grant create session, create table to test01;
    Grant succeeded.
    SYS@db102 SQL> alter user test01 quota unlimited on users;
    User altered.
    SYS@db102 SQL> conn test01/test01
    Connected.
    TEST01@db102 SQL> create table test(a number);
    Table created.
    TEST01@db102 SQL> alter table test add(b varchar2(100));
    Table altered.

  • No of concurrent users on oracle 10g

    Hi Guru's,
    We have a requirement where 200 + user will have a connection to our database at a point of time. We have windows 2008 + oracle 11.1 in our envirnment.
    Now my question is ..What steps do i need to take that all connection are taken care by databse and no connection gets failure message.I tried this by 100 connnection but after 100 it is giving error .(listener error..)
    Please let me know in case any more detail is required from my side.
    Thanks
    Vivek

    As you never posted what listener error you got, my guess is you hit ora-12500, which usually means the maximum number of threads for the Oracle process is reached.
    You can configure the maximum number of threads in Windows, but I do not know from the top of my head how, so I suggest you visit http://technet.microsoft.com

  • Changing password of Sysman and DBSNMP users in Oracle 10g (10.2.0.3.0)

    Hi,
    When i changed my sysman and dbsnmp password, these users are frequently locking.
    For sysman password change i do the following steps.
    1) emctl stop dbconsole
    2) change password of sysman and dbsnmp from sql
    3) Post sysman password change to emoms.properties file
    4) Post DBSNMP password change in targets.xml
    5) emctl start dbconsole.
    DBSNMO AND SYSMAN users were locked.
    Stop dbconsole again
    Unlock the user sysman and dbsnmp
    then again restart dbconsole
    Sysman user locked
    Another thing do we need to have same password for dbsnmp and sysman
    Regards,
    irfanb146

    Now Sysman and DBSNMP users are unlocked after i made the password of sysman change again and they are not locking.

  • Regarding accessing SQL query issued by any user in Oracle 10g

    Hi all,
    i want to know the queries issued by various users accessing a database...
    But the in view DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL,I was getting empty value...(in SQLTEXT column) ...how can i get this value...
    Thanx
    in advance..

    Straight from the documentation :
    The SQL_BIND and SQL_TEXT columns are only populated if the AUDIT_TRAIL initialization parameter is set to db,extended.In addition, you have to make sure you issued the AUDIT command on the objects you would like to AUDIT access on.

  • Top SQL by DB user in Oracle 10g DB Console

    Is there a way to filter Top SQLs on 10g DB Console by a specific DB User? I know you can get all the SQLs by a specific user from Search Sessions, but it doesn't rank them by CPU usage. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    nice idea, because SQL itself doesn't contain info about session executing it.
    See Top SQL/Consumers
    in OEM 10: goto Perfomance - Top Activity - here you can see Top SQLs (left side) and Top Sessions (right side) and ! if click on SQL ID from Top SQL you can see sessions executing it on Activity page.

    How do I find the culprit program at (Oracle Level) who is hugging all the CPUs?
    Thanks a lot

    oradev2 is not the program, it is the LINUX oracle user id.
    the process is under the 'command' column and is 'oracle' - this usually means an oracle server process ( i don't know what you mean by an oracle 'kernel' incidentally)
    if you do a ps listing for the process - e.g
    $ ps -ef | grep 12778
    you will get a start time for the process which MAY give you a clue.
    otherwise you must use your documentation to find out about the sys view v$process - usually the SPID column is the LINUX process id - in your case, 12778
    you usually link v$process to v$session. Best of luck.

  • Is it possible to upgrade only apache in oracle 10g application server.

    Hi All,
    I have to upgrade only apache in oracle 10g application server with out upgrading oracle 10g as.
    Is it possibel to upgrade only apache version in oracle 10g application server. if yes.could you suggest the steps that i need to follow.
    This is very urgent.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sathya

    If your trying to upgrade just apache in that oracle home, then no. If your trying to upgrade to a real apache version, from apache.org, mod_oc4j won't work. You need to use Oracle's version of Apache or HTTP Server.
    Is there a reason you only want to upgrade Apache and not the whole oracle home?
    There are ways to do it, but it wouldn't be supported by Oracle and I wouldn't recommend that either.

    Shan,
    In the same way you create user in any other oracle database. I recommned to check following Oracle Lite Sql reference document for creating user from command line.

  • Possible to rename popup strings upon changing `Chapter` field in `Composition Marker` dialog?

    Hi There,
    I am in need to dynamically change the values inside a popup upon a user changing the value of the `Chapter` field within the `Composition Marker` dialog.  I realize that we cannot add new string values to a popup at runtime, but I read a thread in this forum, and in the `Supervisor` example in the SDK, that it is possible to rename them.  However, it seems like the event for making the changes to those values is triggered by a user changing values in the parameter set of the plugin itself. 
    So my idea is to populate a popup param with 20 strings--for example, 1, 2, 3, . . . 20.  Then when a user enters in a string within the `Chapter` field in a `Composition Marker` dialog, it updates the popup list to show the user entered string.  Is this possible?  I know I can access the string in the `Chapter` field via javascript ExtendScript.  Can I do it within C++ code?
    Thanks for your time and help!

    to get the marker string you should use AEGP_GetMarkerString() with AEGP_MarkerString_CHAPTER.  as for changing the popup values, by looking at the thread you pointed out, it seems it's possible to change the popup names at any time, and not during a specific code. the entire accessing of the popup data in that example was done using AEGP calls, which should not be affected by the calling time. (except for rare cases) never tried it myself. can vouch for my advice here.  since popup param's amount of entries can't be changed dynamically (to the best of my knowledge), you can create 30 (or any other number) of hidden popup params, starting with 1 entry and ending with 30 entries in it, and make only the param that fits your purposes best at that moment - visible.

  • Renaming SAP user id's??

    Hi All,
    We have a requirement to rename the existing user ids in SRM. Is there any such way to do this? Its very urgent. Please let me know if have work or come accros such situation.
    Regards,
    parvez.

    Hi,
    Renaming of User ids is not possible.
    You have to create New User  ids.
    One more problem , even if it is possible to rename , it would not be possible for the renamed user to access documents of the earlier user.
    This is because each document created in SRM will have an identifier of who has created the document.
