Sunset for ops mechanism No more supported by Oracle Not Used by SAPBreaking News OPS remote connect using the TNS alias name is no longer supported by future Oracle versions. While the database parameter REMOTEOSAUTHENT was already deprecated from the first release of Oracle 1. Oracle Note ID 4. Thanks to the television media for diluting the word Breaking News that one can use it wherever they like, additionally whose idea was this Oracles or SAPs to use is with future but for a person like me with no strong background of English, sounds funny anyway lets begin our discussionAs we know ops iswas being used by SAP kernel and BRTOOLS to initiate the connection with Oracle Database, so it was time for SAP to change their Kernel to accommodate the Oracles Breaking news. ORA12805 parallel query server died unexpectedly Oracle Database Tips by Donald BurlesonMay 5, 2016. SAP came up with modification in Kernel. Now these new kernels can connect with Oracle database without using ops mechanism, so far they are downward compatible means by default without additional setting they will connect like old method and if settings has been done they will use SSFS to connect with DB. Note 1. 61. 18. 77 Support for ABAP SSFS during database connect  As per this note this new functionality is available from SAP KERNEL 7. SP0. 98 but rest of the Notes says its patch level 1. Before we discuss further about this new mechanism lets understand briefly how the combination of ops osauthentprefix and remoteosauthent was creating security vulnerability. How OS Authentication works for Oracle Database It takes 3 things to work 1. Oracle parameter OSAUTHENTPREFIX needs to be set. A database User ID which includes osauthentprefixOS User ID Example if osauthentprefix is set like cool and there is a user at Operating system as john then in database there should be a user cooljohn3. In database this user ID should be as IDENTIFIED EXTERNALLYWith this setting john can connect with database by issuing command connect but here is a limitation lets say if database user cooljohn has password pqr.

Security Risk If by any means john OS User IDs access gets hacked then by default it will give access to database as bonus. Hold on please we have not discussed another database parameter remoteosauthent yet. If REMOTEOSAUTHENT TRUEThe bad guy is not required to do much hard work to break into johns access on the server where Database is installed. He can create a OS user ID john on any server or PC which is allowed to connect with DB Server machine. Though its true that there are limited machines which are generally allowed to connect with Database server and those machines are secured from OS authentication perspective, But for a reputed guy like Oracle it was not going along to rely so much on security mechanism of multiple remote machines.

Oracle Patch 11.2.0.3' title='Oracle Patch 11.2.0.3' />Oracle Patch 11.2.0.3Sooner or later this was bound to happen. The detail mechanism and what to do is already captured in these notes, so I will not repeat the same stuff here. Note 1. 62. 28. 37 Secure connection of AS ABAP to Oracle via SSFSNote 1. SSFS as password storage for primary database connect. Note 1. 76. 40. 43 Support for secure storage in BRTools. SAP White Paper Oracle Database Administration.

To access them, use a web browser to open the welcome. Platform specific documentation is available in PDF and HTML formats in the Documentation section. Logging In to the System as root. Before you install the Oracle software, you must complete several tasks as the root user. To log in as the root user, complete one of the following procedures Note. You must install the software from an X Window System workstation, an X terminal, or a PC or other system with X server software installed. Following are the steps for installing the software from an X Window System workstation or X terminal Start a local terminal session, for example, an X terminal xterm. If you are not installing the software on the local system, then enter the following command to enable the remote host to display X applications on the local X server. For example. xhost somehost. If you are not installing the software on the local system, then use the ssh, rlogin, or telnet command to connect to the system where you want to install the software. If you are not logged in as the root user, then enter the following command to switch user to root. Following are the steps for installing the software from a PC or other system with X server software Note. If necessary, refer to your X server documentation for more information about completing this procedure. Depending on the X server software that you are using, you may have to complete the tasks in a different order. Start the X server software. Configure the security settings of the X server software to permit remote hosts to display X applications on the local system. Connect to the remote system where you want to install the software and start a terminal session on that system, for example, an X terminal xterm. If you are not logged in as the root user on the remote system, then enter the following command to switch user to root. Checking the Hardware Requirements. The system must meet the following minimum hardware requirements 3. Memory Requirements. The following are the memory requirements for installing Oracle Database 1. Release 2 1. 1. 2 Minimum 1 GB of RAMRecommended 2 GB of RAM or more. To determine the RAM size, enter the following command. Mem. Total procmeminfo. If the size of the RAM is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing. The following table describes the relationship between installed RAM and the configured swap space recommendation Note. On Linux, the Huge. Pages feature allocates non swappable memory for large page tables using memory mapped files. If you enable Huge. Pages, then you should deduct the memory allocated to Huge. Pages from the available RAM before calculating swap space. Available RAMSwap Space Required. Between 1 GB and 2 GB1. RAMBetween 2 GB and 1. GBEqual to the size of the RAMMore than 1. GB1. 6 GBTo determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command. This command displays the processor type. Verify that the processor architecture matches the Oracle software release to install. If you do not see the expected output, then you cannot install the software on this system. To determine the size of the configured swap space, enter the following command. Swap. Total procmeminfo. Wood And Metal Ak47 Airsoft more. If necessary, refer to the operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional swap space. To determine the available RAM and swap space, enter the following command. Note Oracle recommends that you take multiple values for the available RAM and swap space before finalizing a value. This is because the available RAM and swap space keep changing depending on the user interactions with the computer. Contact your operating system vendor for swap space allocation guidance for your server. The vendor guidelines supersede the swap space requirements listed in this guide. Automatic Memory Management. Starting with Oracle Database 1. Automatic Memory Management feature requires more shared memory devshmand file descriptors. The shared memory should be sized to be at least the greater of MEMORYMAXTARGET and MEMORYTARGET for each Oracle instance on that computer. To determine the amount of shared memory available, enter the following command. Note MEMORYMAXTARGET and MEMORYTARGET cannot be used when LOCKSGA is enabled or with Huge. Pages on Linux. 3. System Architecture. To determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command. This command displays the processor type. Verify that the processor architecture matches the Oracle software release to install. If you do not see the expected output, then you cannot install the software on this system. Disk Space Requirements. The following are the disk space requirements for installing Oracle Database 1. Release 2 1. 1. 2 At least 1 GB of disk space in the tmp directory. To determine the amount of disk space available in the tmp directory, enter the following command. If there is less than 1 GB of free disk space available in the tmp directory, then complete one of the following steps Delete unnecessary files from the tmp directory to meet the disk space requirement. Set the TMP and TMPDIR environment variables when setting the oracle users environment. Extend the file system that contains the tmp directory. If necessary, contact the system administrator for information about extending file systems. To determine the amount of free disk space on the system, enter the following command.
