SAP Operating System Users
The company wants to rename these users to meet their standards. In other words they want to rename <SAPSID>ADM to Z<SAPSID>adm and so on for the other user names.
I know there is a lot involved when doing this, but I need something official from SAP that advices against this or steps to complete this. Preferable something from SAP that is against this.
Can anyone direct me to some SAP documentation on the matter?
Thanks,
Nayt
I don't think a company wants to make changes to standards/recommendations to maintain their standards.
Yeah, you'd think that, and that's been repeated back to the one's wanting to make this change. This company Does want to do that, they just do not understand what will happen and they do not understand SAP.
Which is why I'm looking for something official saying this Should not be done from SAP. Any Notes anything.

File Permissions on Oracle Directories for other Operating System Users
Hi,
I am trying to export the table data to flat file using a pl/sql function using UTL_FILE package and directories created using 'CREATE DIRECTORY' command. The function is called from a stored procedure which in-turn is called from a Java program using JDBC and the Java process runs as different operating system user. The problem for me is the file exported is being written as 'ORACLE' user with 'OINSTALL' group and '-rw-r--r--' linux file permissions. When I try to read this exported file from the java program it throws me a file access error.
I would like to know if we can specify any additional parameters either in
1) Database parameter file
2) UTIL_FILE.FOPEN function
3) CREATE DIRECTORY command
so that the files written to the DIRECTORY have a read write access.Since you attempting to read the file from Java, you are constrained by the OS.
Write a stored proc to read the file, since PL/SQL does have the correct permissions to read/write to files.

How to add operation system user in atable
oracle 10g and Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.4
i wouil like to add operation system user name in a oracle table so that i can monitor data in the particular tableYour question is unclear.
Check also v$session dynamic performance view may be you can get information from this view which you can pull into your custom table.
And your query is about finding who is connected then,
To know about the list of users that is now connected and the time when they connect to database issue the following query.
SQL> SELECT s.username, s.program, s.logon_time
FROM v$session s, v$process p, sys.v_$sess_io si
WHERE s.paddr = p.addr(+)
AND si.sid(+) = s.sid
AND s.type = 'USER';
USERNAME PROGRAM LOGON_TIM
SAMI sqlplus@testerp (TNS V1-V3) 26-NOV-10
oracle@testerp (J000) 26-NOV-10
To know only the current session user name you can issue the following query,
SQL> SELECT USERNAME from v$session where audsid = sys_context('userenv','sessionid');
USERNAME
SAMI
To know about on which schema you are connecting issue following query.
SQL> SELECT sys_context('USERENV', 'CURRENT_SCHEMA') FROM dual;
SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','CURRENT_SCHEMA')
SAMI
To know about the connected user user for the current session issue,
SQL> SELECT sys_context('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER') FROM dual;
SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV','SESSION_USER')
SAMI
If you use SQL*plus then simply issue,
SQL> SHOW USER;
USER is "SAMI" -
Install Error (Operating System User Error)
Hello,
I am having a problem installing Oracle 9ias application server. I installed it once and then thought I messed the install up because I couldn't log on to the application manager. Anyway I deinstalled it using the product installer software they supply and then I rebooted and now I continue to get the following error. I am the only user who has ever tried to install the software.
All Oracle 9iAS installations on a host must be installed by the same operating system user. The initial Oracle 9iAS installation located at C:\ora9ias was installed by a different operating system user. Please exit the install, log in as the user who installed the inital Oracle 9iAS installation and restart the install.
Any ideas?Hi,
you must drop manually the references in regedit to old iAs orcle home. Then you must drop the key 'em_loc' in regedit located in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>ORACLE if this key is pointing to Oracle 9iAS home.
I have done this and I've installed my ias instance right in W2K. -

Oracle installed under which operating system user?
How can I know, under whıch operating system user does the oracle installed?
Oracle 10gXE and windowsxpYou can find it ..following the next steps:
1) Control Panel
2) Administrative Tools
3) Computer management
4) Click on 'groups' sub-folder of the 'Local users and groups' folder
5) on the right pane .. search for the 'ora_dba' group... This group is automatically created by Oracle and puts in the O/S user you have logged on the system at the time of the db installation....
6) Dbl-click on this group to find out the O/S username....
I'm not sure for the above steps if you have installed OracleXE...

Providing operating system user and password
sir
for various task in enterprise manager of 10g , it ask for the Operating system administrator usert id and password to perform various tasks.
what userid and password of o/s administrator be provided.
my o/s does not have any password for the o/s administrator account..
pls guide
thanks with regdsDepending on the context of the OS user credentials, usually it is the OS user ID (name and password) of the software owner for the target in question.
For example, if you are trying to perform an operation against a database target in EM, and you were requested to provide OS credentials, you should provide the OS username and password for the RDBMS home.
You could post this question on the Grid Control forum instead of the HA forum for further discussion if needed.
I hope this helps.

Operating system user for Host cridentials
I get the following error when trying to save the backup settings within
the Enterprise Manager 10g (10.1.0.4) DB console over Web. The database is running under linux Red Hat.
Validation Error:
Examine and correct the following errors, then retry the operation:
Error - connection to host as user root failed: Failed to read error from
command.
Note that the OS user I'm using is "root" (also the oracle user didn't work) .
Does anyone know which setting is missing on the database server?
Thanks in advance
NikeI would not encourage using root user.
Your oracle user may not have the correct permissions. You need to ensure that oracle is in the required OS group and have the required privileges and file persmissions. Ensure that root.sh was run during your install.
If you check the corresponding trace files under
$ORACLE_HOME/sysman/log/ you may find more detailed message.

I have Windows 7 Enterprise Professional, accessed earlier from (now deleted) other dual boot operating system (User folder), which shows it's users as unknowns for folder properties in Windows 7 Enterprise Professional's "C:\Users\Aniruddha",
which causes system not responding, how to 'Remove' these unknown users from folder properties of "C:\Users\Aniruddha"?
Also "C:\Users\Aniruddha\Application Data" creates many of own folders within eachselfs end folder ("C:\Users\Aniruddha\Application Data" creates a "C:\Users\Aniruddha\Application Data\Application Data", "C:\Users\Aniruddha\Application
Data\Application Data" creates a "C:\Users\Aniruddha\Application Data\Application Data\Application Data" and many) because of which system stops responding randomly, starts responding only for "ctrl+alt+del", why such self
creation begins?
Whether a standby user with same file structure copied from a user would dynamically link it's shortcut folders with Windows user from whom these folders were copied or whether there would be no link and for above said problem I would restore User's file structre
back to normal just by copying from standby user?It seems your PC is infected with some malware. Use a trusted antivirus software with the latest definition updates installed to scan and remove the malware.

Generate PI alerts for Runtime exceptions in other SAP ERP system

Is there anyway generating this kind of exception?
Thanks

Edited by: Sai Krishna on Jun 30, 2008 3:08 PMHi Sai,
There are 3 ways you can do this.
1) Like VJ said "sending an Email using mail adapter from with in a BPM" Which will be a little complex and preformance wise may be slow but sounds neat .
2) Use the Work Flow WS71000002 ( AlertSendWf ) to capture and trigger a RFC or a Mail to the concern system
For this you will require the services of a Workflow guy; but this will be fast and recommended if the error are being caught in a SAP to SAP landscape
3) You can use this link to generate a group email this is what I have implemented in our landscape

Does anyone know how to pass the client operating system user id through an asp.net webserver to an Oracle database
so that it be tracking using the FGA tables?
ThanksNot sure if this is in the same realm but investigate "Proxy Authentication", I used this for DB user impersonation (from non-oracle credentials, not OS user ID but I think that OS user ID can be used as well).

Retrieve information about the operating system

operating system user. It is possible?
Thanks,
