Why do we need system password always while running AD utilies..

Dear All,
I always have a doubt why we need to give system password whil using all the AD utilies..Awaiting for your knowledge sharing..

Hi;
I always have a doubt why we need to give system password whil using all the AD utilies..Awaiting for your knowledge sharing..When you run ad utulity its mention:
AD Administration needs the password for your 'SYSTEM' ORACLE schema in order to determine your installation configuration.
Enter the password for your 'SYSTEM' ORACLE schema:It doesnt clear?
Please see:

  • Getting Invalid password message while running catalog utility

    Hi,
    I am trying to index the modifyTimestamp attribute using catalog utility in OID.
    I am using the command as :
    ./catalog -connect=orcl -add=TRUE -attribute=modifyTimestamp
    Enter OID password:
    but I am getting Invalid password error when I am entering the super user (cn=orcladmin) password.
    Could you please help me in solving this issue.
    Also can someone help me in knowing how to check what should be the correct value of connect_string.
    I am running this command on Solaris.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Rohit,
    The fix to this is fairly straightforward.
    You have input an incorrect path for the -infile parameter when calling cryptotools.
    You entered , -infile OracleBIData_HOME/web/config/credentialstore.xml
    when it should be, -infile C:\OracleBI\web\config\credentialstore.xml , depending on the absolute physical path to the credentialstore.xml file.
    It looks like you were attempting to use either a Nix (unix/linux) path with the forward slashes or you where trying to use a environment variable for "OracleBIData_Home".  I can see from the c:\ that you are on a Windows machine so the Nix path won't work. Also if you are attempting to use an environment variable that you have confirmed is indeed set, then you need to use %OracleBIData_HOME% in the command prompt which would look like %OracleBIData_HOME%\web\config\credentialstore.xml
    So to answer your question your command should appear as below if I have accessed your path to the OracleBIData home correctly, you may need to change it based on your installation,
    C:\OracleBI\web\bin>cryptotools credstore -add -infile C:\OracleBIData\web\config\credentialstore.xml
    Just be mindful of your paths and your backslashes vs. forward slashes.
    Please mark this as the correct answer to award points if it is or if you read it and it helped you.

  • Why do we need to have a observer run on the different computer

    Hello team,
    Why do we need to have a observer run on the different computer and how to install & confgure it on that different computer.?pls help
    5.5.6 Managing the Observer
    The observer is integrated in the DGMGRL client-side component and runs on a different computer from the primary or standby databases and from the computer where you manage the broker configuration. The observer continuously monitors the fast-start failover environment to ensure the primary database is available (described in Section 5.5.2.1). The observer's main purpose is to enhance high availability and lights out computing by reducing the human intervention required by the manual failover process that can add minutes or hours to downtime.
    Thanks

    Do we need a same db binary & OS version for starting the observer on the different computer ?? here the primary & standby are liunx.
    Thanks in advance..
    Regards,it does not have to be on the same platform or operating system on which the databases reside, and it does not need Oracle EE and an instance (which means no extra license).
    To configure check this.

  • OS X  System Freezes While Running Disk Utility repair permissions

    While trying to pepair permissions systom freeze up. So I put in the startup disk hit restrat holding down c and tried to repair permissions that way and it froze up that way too. I had to manually turn off machine.  What is going on?

    Thanks for your response, I only have one disk. 10.5.1 I have 10.6 on usb drive. I will try running Disk Utility from the first DVD and instead of repair permissions try to repair your drives.  The reason I was repairing permissions is I have an app called video converter and when I opened it I got an error window.  Ok I will try repair disk. If that doesnt work I guess I will have to reinstall the os? Is that right? Ok, here I go to try it.

  • Why can't I save control values while running an application in 6.1?

    In Labview 5.1 I was able to save change control and indicator values while running the application. I accomplished this by using the MAKE CURRENT VALUES DEFAULT Method on a VI invoke node. How do I accomplish the same in 6.1?

    If I remember correctly, the same limitation with the method existed in 5.1 as it does in 6.1 - namely you can't use the method while the VI is running. See here, here, and here for just a brief sample of the numerous times this question has come up and the possible solutions.

    Thank You for quick responses,
    But fortunately, nothing happened as said.
    All the objects in the database are in compiled state, except 9 objects.
    As i said earlier even after ignoring and going forth i haven't faced any issues as of now and the application is running fine.
    i couldn't figure it out, i think error reported only for the 9 invalid objects.

  • Why do we need to password protect our system?

    They say their is "no such thing as a dumb question" but I know this is one. sigh. I'm curious to the reasons why this is so important.
    I understand password protecting prohibits others from piggybacking and using my network. What else does it do?

    From Context, I assume you are talking about using a password on your WiFi network.
    The answer is "It Depends".
    If you live in the middle of no where, then the chances of someone using your network or sniffing your traffic is small.
    If you live in an apartment, or your neighbors homes are very close to yours, or there are lots of people driving/walking near your home, then the chances of someone using your WiFi are much higher.
    Yes someone may be using your bandwidth. This means your web surfing may be slower as you are fighting with others to download graphics and such.
    Chances are your ISP service aggrement says you are not suppose to let others uses your ISP connection.
    If someone sniffs your network traffic, then they can see what you are doing on the interenet. The good news is that generally connections to your Bank, or when actually entering payment information while shopping on-line is encrypted between your computer and your bank or on-line store.
    Your home router (aka WiFi base station) acts as a firewall from internet attempts to break into your computer, however, if someone can sit in their apartment and use your WiFi, they can also attempt to break into your Mac because they are inside your home network and your router is actually helping them in stead of blocking them. So do you trust your neighbors?

  • Why do we need system reserved partition

    Hi,
    From windows vista and above MS has come up with an additional 100mb system reserved partition. I read about it on several places over the web that, this partition is used for BCD store.
    There are several other filse/folders( en-US, cs-cz, ja-JP, memset.exe) inside other than the BCD store, what do these folders keep and what purpose do they serve. Is it mandatory to have them here, as I tried to delete some of them and didn't face any problem
    while booting.
    Thanks in advance

    The System Reserved partition contains boot files, bitlocker files (if enabled) and things needed for recovery purposes. The idea is that, (ideally) this partition is separate from the OS and that a recovery partition is present. If something were to happen
    to the OS, you would still be able to boot to recovery (repair your computer) as the bootloader is not in the OS partition. Is it not required to install Windows with that partition.
    When a computer boots, it will attempt to boot the first active partition. In the case there are no active partitions, it will attempt to boot the first partition. This is why the System Reserved partition is supposed to be the first partition. On a GPT
    disk, it is possible to have the System partition be the second (with none marked active) and the OS will still boot, so I'm sure there is more to it than that, but maybe it gives you an idea.
    The directories are certainly not empty. You would need to use the attribute switch to specify system or hidden files in order to see them with DIR.

  • Why does apple need my password to fix my broken ipod classic?

    Took my ipod in to curry's to be repaired and the shop assistant told me that apple needed my apple id and password for repairs, why is this?

    Yep.  76 others. I'm the 77th one straight off of the assembly line.
    As for plan A, there never was one.
    Actually, it was a username/alias I had originally just thrown together when I first signed up. I had no idea I would stick around this long.

    It sounds like you may need to reset your permissions.  Are you getting the request for a password when you save to any location on your hard drive, or when you save to specific folders?
