How to change the stored Oracle password within Symantec Indepth for Oracle 6.2.x
Details:
I. IntroductionSeveral i3 components require
the ability to log into the Performance Warehouse. The Indepth for Oracle
component requires the ability to log into the monitored Oracle
instance. If any of the passwords for these Oracle accounts have been
changed, the corresponding i3 component needs to be notified of the new
password. This TechNote describes how to perform this update.
If running
i3 7.x, refer to
TechNote
http://library.veritas.com/docs/282252
II. Procedure1. Download the attached
change_pass_282253.zip file
2. Unpack it in a convenient temporary
location
3. Copy the enclosed
change_pass.jar file to
<i3_root>/java/1.3.1/lib/4. Copy the enclosed
change_pass.sh (or
.bat on Win32) to
<i3_root>5. From the
<i3_root> directory, run
the script (.sh or .bat) using the following
syntax:
change_pass.sh -[a|p|o]
<oracle_server> <oracle_sid>
<new_password>The first argument is defined as
follows:
-a: when changing the Oracle database password used by
the Alerts FocalPoint
-p: when changing the Oracle database
password used by the i3 Performance Warehouse process
-o: when
changing the Oracle database password used by Indepth for Oracle on the
monitored instance
As an example, here is the command to change
the password on the Performance
Warehouse:
change_pass.sh
-p OracleServer OracleSID NewPaSSw0rdNote: The
<oracle_server> and <oracle_sid> values need to be the values as
displayed in
AdminPoint
.6. Using
AdminPoint, restart the appropriate i3 component that was changed
7. If
the database password was changed for the Performance Warehouse Oracle user, in
addition to running the command line change above, each Indepth for Oracle
schema must be updated to rebuild the pss_pw_link that is used to connect that
instance to the Performance Warehouse.
Use the following syntax to
recreate the database link:
create
database link pss_pw_link connect to <pw user id> identified by <pw
user pass> using
'(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=<pw host
name>)(Port=<pw port>)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=<pw
sid>)))'
Use appropriate values for
<pw_user_id>,
<pw_user_pass>,
<pw_host_name>,
<pw_port>,
<pw_sid>. These values can
be found in
<i3_root>/products/i3fp/registry/connection-pools/jdbc/pools.xml.
- Use
the <user> value for
<pw_user_id>
- Use
the <host> value for the
<pw_host_name>
- Use
the <port> value for the
<pw_port>
- Use
the <db-name> for the
<pw_sid>
