Oracle User in Solaris

Question

Hi,
I created oracle user in solaris . If I switch from root to oracle it's not asking the oracle user password and direcly going to $ prompt
when I type the command who in $ promot its showing root , Why?
$ who am i
root ->here its should be show the oracle username
If i switch the user again i.e su - oracle now its asking password and still shoing root for who am i command
$su - oracle
password:
$ who am i
root
Can any one tell why its behaving like this?
Thanks.
