"System" user locked
Hello all. For entering in Oracle 10g Db we start SQLPLUS. user-name "system" and
password containing @ (my mistake), TNS error view. Presently I know that problem
in "@" symbol. While understood the user "system" is locked....
As possible change password and unlock the user?
Or create the the new user for Oracle....
Please advise ....
ups,
I forgot that part, we are giving the answer in small pieces
Resume for "dummies"
1) Connect to the database
sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
2) Unlock the user ( as William Fee post )
ALTER USER xxxxx ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
3) Change the password ( as my post )
Alter user system identified by <newpassword>
4) a bit optional ( IMHO ) change the profile ( as William Fee post )
ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS UNLIMITED;

Managed system user locking because of solman_setup wrong information
Hello,
Each time I go to solman_setup -> Managed system,
there are two systems with a red point because of non
working rfc connection.
When I reconfigure them (3. connect managed system), I change the
user/password to connect to the managed system.
But our solman still connects to the managed system with the wrong
username and password.
Then the user is locked in the managed system (too many connections with a wrong password),
How could I proceed to tell solman to stop using the old username
password provided?
Regards,Hello Beniot,
I has similar issue some time back, please have a look at below link.
RFC error in third step while performing managed system configuration
reset the password and retry, and try to check dump in both the system, solman and system which you are trying to do manage system config.
Even after this you are getting error, please paste the screen shot or attach the error.

SYSTEM user's accounts get locks automatically
Oracle SYSTEM user's account gets lock automatically after every 4-5 days. I user to run following query which unlocks the account:
SQL:\>ALTER USER system ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
How I can stop this happening? I am not able to alter profile for unlimited attempts also.
Is there any workout, please help me....In my opinion, you should immediately find out who constantly tries to guess the password of system instead of making it possible for him to try that indefinitely without locking the account. That is like switching off the annoying alert sirene if someone constantly tries to break in.
You should

1. How can I log in to SYS account despite being locked. Is it because i logged in through external authentication?set ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID than
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
alter user xx account unlock;
2. Is locking the SYS user a standard practise ? If so, why ?
SYS and SYSTEM are default users, created with the creation of the database. Although they have much power - as they are granted the DBA role - they're still ordinary users. Because SYS owns the data dictionary, (s)he is considered a bit more special than SYSTEM. But SYS has the SYSDBA privilege which SYSTEM doesn't. This makes it possible for SYS to become a very very powerful user. This is the case when (s)he connects as sys/password as SYSDBA or / as sysdba. The as sysdba phrase is a request to aqcuire the privileges associated wht the single SYSDBA system privileges (see here).

Dear all,
We have 10.2.0.4 on solaris 10.
Currently we had I.T audit on our environment and auditor commented to lock sys and system user and use one user with any name (not oracle generic name) and grant him sys and system privilege and to use this user for admin purposes. is this right ?.. is this recommended ?
Please adviseHello,
I think it's not a right way to lock SYS.
More over, if you connect as OS Administrator (root for Unix/linux) on the server and use
OS Authentification then, you can connect on SYS AS SYSDBA anyway.
So, in fact, it's not possible to lock out SYS even if you execute the following:
ALTER USER SYS ACCOUNT LOCK;If you want to prevent access on SYS you should set a complex and long password and
apply the same rule for the Administrator / root OS user.
These passwords must be known by very few and well - identified people and written nowhere
(in any files or scripts).
More over, you should limit DBA roles to SYS and SYSTEM and remove this powerful Role
from other Oracle Users.
Then, you may enable session AUDIT so as to control the connexion on the database and,
create a LOGON TRIGGER so as to check the login, workstation, program of the end users
who connect to the database.
On 10g, EM DBConsole shows an alert everytime a User is connected with SYS.
Please, find enclosed, an interesting document written by Pete Finigan on this topic:

Hope this help.

RFC users locked after system copy in production system
Hi,
BW_User,MDBTC(RFC users) system users were locked in our BI Production system at the same time system copy activity was running in the Quality system(production to quality) so as per our colleagues concern after system copy they started Quality system with out changing background work-process 0 so some jobs were triggered which were copied from production system.
Is there any cause to lock RFC users in production system for system copy? If there is any other reason where we can check logs
Thanks
Jalandhar ReddyHi,
Well maybe i am wrong to analyze your problem .
Anyway I faced this issue to in our system before and we found that one background job was running in a system that has basically prompting an RFC connection to another system. In the t.code SM59 and there was wrong password was put in.We just reset the password and it was worked fine.
You can try for this..

How to find the when the password is changed for a system User
Hi to all,
We have a test database where our application connects to system user. The application runs more than a month without any issues, But suddenly my system and sys password gets changed. I wonder how this would happen. I have checked with DBA_USERS to check whether the account gets locked, But the account is in the Open state.
I need to find out when the password gets changed for these users and who changed it? Is there any possible to trace it or we need to enable the auditing to find it in future.
Kindly let me know the possible ways.

In my company I am creating project, with reference to WBS / Activity we are creatin Purchase order. We want a temporary status in project by virtue of which we can avoid any further PO against the particular project. How to achieve this ?
I tried to do this with lock status in PS but although I set up Lock for Header level WBS still I can make PO against the project.
Wht is significance of system stastus lock ?
Pl suggest.
RegdsYou can either use user status for controlling this, I've mentioned about how this needs to be done is previous post, link below:
Re: Project Purchase order
Else you can set Lock Account Assignment for the WBS, this will stop PO creation against the WBS.

Dear experts,
I locked a mass users using SU10, one of the user locked and immediately prompted for pwd change.
USER1 31.01.2011 09:15:02 ADMIN Lock Changed 0 Not locked 64 Administrator Lock SU10
USER1 31.01.2011 09:16:56 USER1 Password Changed Long Password 3 Long Password 4 KRNL
USER1 31.01.2011 09:16:56 USER1 Lock Changed 64 Administrator Lock 0 Not locked KRNL
Please suggest why this is happening in my SAP ECC 6.00, Kernal:7.00.
Regards,
Siva.USER1 31.01.2011 09:15:02 ADMIN Lock Changed 0 Not locked 64 Administrator Lock SU10

USER1 31.01.2011 09:16:56 USER1 Lock Changed 64 Administrator Lock 0 Not locked KRNL
Above log is showing that only lock activity was happened from SU10 and after that User changed his password from other opened screen. Did you kick off that user from the system immediate after locking?

How it is possible that an internet user locks an order???
Hi,
I have a problem. Some of the orders, when transfered to R/3 has a mapping error in SMW01. When I check the details I see that it gives an error "Transaction 300615856 is being processed by user 7003788553" message number CRM_ORDER013.
However here 7003788553 is an internet user who gave the order. So how it is possible that an Internet user locks the order.
I tried to simulate the error myself in quality system however never succeeded.
Any idea?

I would suggest you review notes 542924 and 490932.

10g Database SYSTEM user account unlock
I wish to permanently unlock my SYSTEM user account. I have tried:
alter user SYSTEM identified by xxx account unlock;
After running the command I can logon successfully one time to the SYSTEM account then it is automatically locked again. The next time I try to logon I have to unlock the account again.
How can I make the unlock permanent?1. Modify the password used by oraperf.dll
The 10g Windows documentation informs customers to run a tool called operfcfg to change the password.
To set the system password, enter the following: operfcfg.exe -U SYSTEM -P password -D TNS_ALIAS_FOR_DDATATBASE
See Oracle Database Installation for Windows 10g guide, section 4: Configuring Oracle Components; Configuring Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor
or
2. Disable oraperf.dll
NOTE: This step should only be performed by knowledgable Windows System Administrator's:
To disable the oraperf.dll, modify the following key in the registry. HKeyLocalMachine\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Oracle10\Performance. Change the value for Library to "notthere_oraperf.dll" from "oraperf.dll".
