Enabling Oracle User with su Command（suoracle）

Enabling an Oracle user with su command is a task that requires special attention. It is important to understand what is necessary to perform this task without compromising security or causing issues for other users.

The su command is used to temporarily switch to another user. If the user does not have the privileges to perform certain tasks, it will return an error. To make a user an Oracle user, the user must first be granted the necessary privileges by the system administrator.

In order for a user to enable Oracle user with the su command, it is necessary to first log in as root. This is done from the command line using the su command. The user will then enter the root password. The root password is usually provided to new users of the system.

Once logged in as root, the user can grant the Oracle user the necessary privileges by executing the grant user command. It is possible to grant privileges to users on any or all databases associated with the current user’s Oracle environment.

Once the user has been granted the necessary privileges, it is necessary to exit root session by executing the exit command. The user can then switch back to the Oracle user and execute the su command to enter the Oracle user’s shell.

In order to verify that the permissions have been successfully granted, it is possible to check the privileges associated with the Oracle user. This can be done from a terminal window using the show user privileges command.

Once the user has been enabled and the privileges verified, it is important to log out to prevent unauthorized access. This is done by running the exit command from the Oracle user’s shell. After logging out, it is also important to log in as the root user and change the root password.

Enabling an Oracle user with the su command is a relatively straightforward process, however there are certain aspects of security that must be taken seriously. It is important to make sure that the root password is changed regularly to prevent unauthorized access. Additionally, it is important to make sure that the user is given only the necessary privileges in order to reduce the risk of security breaches. Finally, it is important to log out once the user has been enabled to prevent any malicious activity.
