Hi all,
I had a problem with folder /SYS in ILOM when I upgrade firmware for Netra T5220 from TFTP. In folder /SYS have no data such as:

cd
reset
set

My firmware version is 7.1.6, and I want to upgrade to 7.2.7_e
Please help me with this situation.

There is no sense in blocking or revoking privileges from the SYSTEM user, this user is an administrator that must remain this way. If you are concerned about security issues, then just change the system password and don't share it, but don't revoke privileges from your administrator, it is as useless as trying to revoke privileges from the SYS user, any one who gains access to your host can quite easily gain access as SYS and have not only the possibility to read the table contents, but also export the full database and carefully read the database contents from the backup elsewhere.
Check with Meta4 if this has some data encryption features, to protect sensitive data., or check if you can use transparent data encryption in this context (you are rquired to work on a 10gR2 database).
