I am using 'Novell Sentinel Log Manager' to collect/fetch logs from my Oracle 11g R2.To enable auditing, first I did following:
login as sys, then
SQL> create user testuser identified by "testuser";
SQL> grant connect to testuser
SQL> grant dba to sharf
SQL> grant CREATE SESSION to testuser;
SQL> grant select on v_$session to testuser;
SQL> grant select on v_$version to testuser;
SQL> grant select on SYS.DBA_AUDIT_TRAIL to testuser;
SQL> grant select_catalog_role to testuser;
SQL> grant select any dictionary to testuser;
Now logon/logof of user 'testuser' are logged , as well as if testuser drops a table or creates a table, its also logged . but when 'testuser' insert a new record, this information does not logged ;( while I need to know exactly what was added SQL> insert into emp (empid, name, salary) values (10002, 'Ron', 6000)
likewise if 'testuser' modify/update an existing record it also does not logged.
SQL> update emp set salary=700 where empid=10001;
which sql statements I have to execute to start auditing 'insert' and 'update', so that I know what was added/inserted and exactly what was updated/ changed/modify by user 'testuser'.
I have a database in which a user xxxx is assigned a password 'bbbbb'.I want to change the password to the one which was used before which was 'aaaaa'.But when I change the password it was saying "Password cannot be Reused".So I checked in user profile and found out that password_reuse_time=unlimited and password_reuse_max=5.
So what I did was change the password 6 times to something else(Since it is 5) and then tried changing it to 'aaaaa' but still it is saying "Old password cannot be reused".
I am trying to create a custom package that creates users as well as modify user information in OID using DBMS_LDAP package. I was able to create the package but I am stuck on specifying the orcladmin password for the procedure DBMS_LDAP.simple_bind_s(my_session,'orcladmin','orcladminpwd');
I need to get the orcladmin password dynamically. Is there a way to achieve this?
We are planning to provide our application users the ability to add new users / modify their own OID information.
I am trying to setup logon/logoff auditing for our databases which reside in 9i and 10G on sun solaris servers. I am asked to turn on auditing sending the audit data to syslog! How exactly do you do that?
Let us say I want to audit data updates, deletes on existing table EMP_TAB that has a few hundred thousands of records.I created a shadow table Emp_tab_audit and added few audit columns
Emp_tab ( Empno NUMBER NOT NULL, Ename VARCHAR2(10), Job VARCHAR2(9),
[code]...
I am mostly interested in UPDATES and DELETES but I decided to add INSERTS to have full history for each eomplyee in one table (audit schema) instead of querying two tables all the time (production table and audit table) to see the changes.
I created this AFTER INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE trigger.decided to copy the :NEW values for INSERT and UPDATE and :OLD values for DELETE. attached.
so when insert happens, the first audit row is created in EMP_TAB_AUDIT. update happens, the 2nd new row is created in EMP_TAB_AUDIT.
The problem I am facing is the old records that curently exist. If someone updates an old row I am copying the :NEW values so I won't have a copy of the :OLD values unless I create 2 ROWS (one for the old and one for the new).
Do you think I should copy all the hundreds of thousands of records to the AUDIT tables for this to work.
******************************************************************* CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TRG_EMP_AUDIT AFTER INSERT OR DELETE OR UPDATE ON EMP_TAB FOR EACH ROW DECLARE v_operation VARCHAR2(10) := NULL;
getting logon timestamp for our auditing process. In some website, it says to get the logon timestamp I have to select it from timestamp column of dba_audit_session but when I do this, some results has a logoff earlier than logon. Is timestamp column really the logon timestamp?
Oracle Audit Vault 10.2.3.2 & Linux Red Hat 5 on a V.M. box
I'm new to the Audit Vault and am experiencing some issues. Right now my biggest question is how does A.V. deal with TNS issues (allowing the collectors to find remote target db's) when we do not add any tns entries to the local tnsnames file?
We've recently added more space and our sysadmins have moved all of our AV data to the new disk space and have supposedly updated pointers allowing us to continue seamlessly. However now my collectors won't start, they are complaining with message below. These had started previously before the space add.

In Oracle Database 11.2.0.2, to delete audit trails after the audit records have been inserted into Oracle Audit Vault, is it necessary to schedule Oracle Audit Vault jobs to clean up audit trails on a scheduled basis, or AV automatically cleans up audit trails after the audit records have been inserted into the Audit Vault? I know there is a DBMS_AUDIT_MGMT package, but in 11gR2, the deletion of audit trails isn't done automatically?
i want to trace user activities, I want to generate the file with SQL statement generated by particular user. I tried to look in to sys.AUD$ but all i get is logging logout and locations but no SQL Text.
I installed Audit Vault Server 12 (not install firewall) in a oracle linux vmware and activated an agent for Oracle 11g release 2 in windows 7 x64 vmware according to Oracle® Audit Vault and Database Firewall Installation Guide and Administrator’s Guide Release 12.1.0 as follows:
1) ALTER SYSTEM SET AUDIT_TRAIL=XML, EXTENDED SCOPE=SPFILE; Database restart
2) Register the Oracle Database Host Machine
3) Deploy Agent and Request Activation on the Host Machine
4) Create user accounts on the secured targets and set up Oracle AVDF user privileges on an Oracle Database secured target.
5) Register Secured Targets in the Audit Vault Server with user acount of stpe 4:jdbc:oracle:thin:@//IP:1521/orcl
6) Configure an Audit Trail in the Audit Vault Server : TABLE - sys.aud$ or DVSYS.audit_trail$, DIRECTORY - directory of audit trail xml saved.
I turned off firewall just in case.Administrator web page of AVDF showed only messages of "request completed" after configuring an audit trail in the Audit Vault Server.But, collection state was a red downward arrow, and even auditor web page showed same state.I couldn't show audit trails in the auditor web page.
I have my database structured to where i have my tables, constraints, and Rows populated in each table which is 4 tables in particular. for one I want to be able to List all four tables with its content and constraints all at once. What i want to with the PL/SQL is to be able to program a prompt to where the user can just enter the individual order information and the data goes to what ever appropriate column or Table it needs to go to. Now should I be mostly be using procedures, functions or triggers to make this possible.
I have to find all the 'failed log ins' through audit report. then it has to be uploaded to a table. The script, either in windows or unix should be reusable and can read files one by one.
I want to audit user connection on my reporting database, and send a report to application team on monthly basis, with a list of users who are not connected for a month and remove them.
What would be best method, i know there is LOGON trigger, or database level auditing.
in my environmnet audit is working audit_trail=db,extended . i am also viewing report of audit trail from dba_audit_trail or aud$. But problem is that i have to generate report on which object of schema what audit is running .
or from which tables we can get information of following commands.
AUDIT ALL BY xx_test BY ACCESS; AUDIT SELECT TABLE, UPDATE TABLE, INSERT TABLE, DELETE TABLE BY xx_test BY ACCESS; AUDIT EXECUTE PROCEDURE BY xx_test BY ACCESS;
I am just making a audit table as well. i have learnt the basics from here URL.....
My problem is that after inserting into audit table if i issue commit command then the table + unsaved data present on the form is also saved.What i want is that i issue a command which save only inserted record in audit table, and should NOT save data present on the data entry form. (which will be saved later by other method/button).
“AUDIT DELETE ANY TABLE BY <username> BY ACCESS” or “AUDIT UPDATE ANY TABLE<username> BY ACCESS”
enable audit for delete and updates for given username/schema. I want to enable auditing on delete and update on my entire database.
Why? And have we tested it in our any of existing setup? I am thinking of “Trigger after delete” but again this logic gets struck at individual tables. It do not work simply once and all for complete database/all users/all schemas
In our architecture, the application can only access functions/procedures to access/modify data. Each function logs the action, the executed sql statement, oracle error, user terminal, and the user into a unified log table by using v$ tables to create a general log function that is called after execution or error.
The only advantage is that it will be easier to know the delete and last update information faster versus space and design modification.
I have a base table (Table A) block with multiple records displayed. I need to track audits to this underlying table in the following way:
If user updates a field in the block I want the pre-changed record's audit fields to be set and I need to create a copy of the record with the changed values. Basically any changes will result in the record being logically deleted, and a copy record created with the newly changed values.
Tried to implement in the block's pre-update trigger which will call a package to directly update Table A then Insert into Table A, then requery the block. Is there a clean and efficient way to do this?
i want to create a trigger that will update a table when there is an insert or update.i can't across this error that i don't even know what it means "table %s.%s is mutating, trigger/function may not see it".
*Cause: A trigger (or a user defined plsql function that is referenced in this statement) attempted to look at (or modify) a table that was in the middle of being modified by the statement which fired it.
*Action: Rewrite the trigger (or function) so it does not read that table.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER set_date_end BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OF issued ON shares_amount FOR EACH ROW DECLARE BEGIN INSERT INTO shares_amount(date_end) VALUES(SYSDATE); END set_date_end; /
I have 4 tables , Certain users need to (Select ,insert,delete) certain rows only based on nApplication id
All the tables have Application Id , Based on this application id user will (Select ,insert,delete)
I tried row level security DBMS_RLS.add_policy but it hangs every time when i query the data or when i try to drop the policy. Is there is any method to resolve this issue.
If only Row level security will solve this issue , give me some example
Just to confirm with you if we can apply the October 2011 Critical Patch Update (CPU) to address vulnerabilities covered from CPU 2007 up to CPU 2011?
The PC Server (staging) where patching will be applied is running under Windows Vista have not been patched since it's database creation. This is maintained by our Contractors.
