Server Administration :: Identifying Proxied User Sessions
Mar 30, 2011
I'm sure you are all familiar with proxy users, they've been around since 9i: orcl> create user low identified by low;
User created.
orcl> create user high identified by high;
User created.
orcl> grant dba to high;
Grant succeeded.
orcl> alter user high grant connect through low;
User altered.
orcl> connect low[high]/low
Connected.
orcl> sho user
USER is "HIGH"
orcl>
Is there any way that I can find out which of the current sessions was proxied, and through what user? I know that from within the session I can query my userenv context and find out, but I can't see how to do it otherwise. It must be possible: the audit trail records both the real user and the proxy user.
I need to increase the size of shared pool for that i need to change the size of parameter sga_target and sga_max_size these are static parameter so that I need to change in spfile first then start instance then these parameter will get change. But when I create pfile from spfile it gives error:
ERROR at line 1: ORA-01565: error in identifying file '?/dbs/spfile@.ora' ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory Additional information: 3
I am on Oracle 11.2.0.3 on Linux. In my production database, I am getting this alert, in the alert log:
--the below two lines are from alert log. Error 604 trapped in 2PC on transaction 50.73.546578. Cleaning up.
--query from a data dictionary view SQL> select count(*) from DBA_2PC_PENDING; COUNT(*) ---------- 1
When I query the production database I see that there is one row in the DBA_2PC_PENDING view. But I dont' know how to identify which are the databases that are involved in this distributed transaction. That is my first issue - how to identify which are the two databases that are involved in the distributed transaction?
My application is opening a lot of sessions in my DB server. I applied resource_limit=true and idle_time=15 min. ans assign this profile to all application user.
Now I am seeing a lot of sessions having status sniped in v$session.
I want to clean up these sniped sessions and what they mean.
I am using oracle 10g as server in my lab. I faced some problems initially, but later after increasing the USERS tablespace it is working fine.
But there is still one problem. During the query execution some queries will be blocked and it doesn't leave any consequent queries to execute from the same user.
The blocked sessions will be displayed in the admin page under blocking sessions link. There is a option to kill the session. But when i do that, it affects all the users and the connection will be lost to all the users. again I have startup the database from beginning.
We had an issue last week were we had a session with a very basic SQL query lock up the database, spiking the CPU at 100%. When you would kill the session, the lock would just jump to another session and so on. We finally had to restart the database since our clients were being kicked out. After the restart of the database, the LGWR ended up locking and held the CPU between 85-95%. The archive logs were switching every 5 minutes, when normally it would be every 45min. We spoke with Oracle Support, but they just ended up brushing the issue off and saying it was a hardware issue and were not able to provide any kind of backing to that.
I have a simple question about database sessions. The value of parameter "sessions" is set to 500 and the users connect to database through an application server(Jboss). There are more than 500 users connect to the database through application.
My question is, how more than 500 users can connect to the database without any issue, if we set the value of "sessions" parameter to 500?
I killed some 70 sessions which where inactive couple of days ago using alter system kill session(sid,serial#) immediate;
But even after killing them it still exists in the v$session view when I query select sid,serial# from v$session where username is not null; It has the same sid and serial#....I tried killing them every now and then but it still shows those exists
We have quite a number of sessions in database MES (production) coming from another machine.
From v$session, the program is oracle@WID27 (TNS V1-V3). This WID27 (hostname) consists of quite a number of development databases inside. We have to trace which jobs are actually triggering this, as WID27 are not suppose to connect to production databases.
How can we tell whether the sessions came in is from dblink or from the machine itself?
I have a strange problem when creating a view in user from another user
I have a user called "Cash_tst"
its syntax creation is
-- Create the user create user CASH_TST identified by "" default tablespace CASH temporary tablespace TEMP profile DEFAULT quota unlimited on cash; -- Grant/Revoke object privileges grant connect to CASH_TST; grant dba to CASH_TST; grant resource to CASH_TST;
-- Grant/Revoke system privileges grant create any view to CASH_TST; grant unlimited tablespace to CASH_TST;
I want to create a view
CREATE VIEW TAMER AS SELECT * FROM [b]AROFL[/b].RA_CUSTOMER_TRX_LINES_ALL_BEFO
"AROFL" is another user on the same database when try to create the view "tamer" i got message of "insufficent privilege" although i granted "create any view" to the user "cash_tst"
Quote: SESSIONS_PER_USER Each instance maintains its own SESSIONS_PER_USER count. If SESSIONS_PER_USER is set to 1 for a user, the user can log on to the database more than once as long as each connection is from a different instance.
[URL].....
Of course the following is not working even when resource_limit is TRUE
ALTER PROFILE DEFAULT LIMIT SESSIONS_PER_USER 2;
How can I restrict a user to have limited sessions say 2 sessions across 4 node cluster? Presently I am checking the sessions logged in using sql+ and no connection pooling of front end etc. is involved.
We have installed Oracle RAC 11gR2, installation was all successful.But i cannot see ASMSNMP user to login as ASM enterprise manager .If i tries to login as sys (even after assigning SYSASM role) he cannot login.
Quote:Set Oracle_sid=+ASM1 sqlplus / as sysasm grant sysasm to sys; conn sys/*** as sysasm ORA-01031 insufficient privileges
Whenever I create a table using login A, the table gets created successfully. But when I query the dba_objects, the object owner is different, login B. What might be the reason behind this?

WHEN I CONNECT TO SCOTT OR ANY KIND OF USER (EXCLUDE SYS)I CONNECT EASILY BUT PROBLEM WITH SCOTT OR OTHER THEY CANNOT BE SHUTDOWN THE DATABASE AT THAT TIME THE ERROR ARISES ARE
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges SO OUR DATABASE CANT BE SHUT IT DOWN.
last two years i am using oracle 9i in windows 2003 server but now i installed oracle 10g on another server (PC) , i want to connect 9i to 10g with same database and user .
I have login through the sysdba and created dblink and modified the tnsnames.ora for necessary changes. And the it started working correctly and I can able to get the data by selecting it.But when I login with different user that is showing the following error.

How to resolve this,is there any privileges or permission need to give to that user.
