1 – 7 Introducing Oracle7 Server for Windows NT
CONNECT INTERNAL command. With Release 7.3, the following two
steps ensure database security:
•
verify that the database connection is secure
•
assign SYSOPER or SYSDBA privileges to users to whom you
want to grant privileged access to the database
This procedure enables administrators to track who logs on as SYSOPER
and SYSDBA. Rather than logging on as INTERNAL, users log on with
their user ID plus the SYSOPER or SYSDBA privileges.
Additional Information: See Oracle7 Server Reference for more
information about database security.
Oracle7 Server for Windows NT Memory Structures
When you start a database, Oracle7 Server for Windows NT
automatically starts a single instance by creating background threads
and memory structures unique to the Windows NT environment.
Each instance of the Oracle7 Server for Windows NT has its own
(separate) Oracle system process and Oracle database service. When you
make a local or remote connection to an instance, Oracle starts one new
thread in the process dedicated to the new connection.
Oracle7 Server for Windows NT Integration with Windows NT
The tight integration of Oracle7 Server for Windows NT with the
Windows NT operating system gives you unprecedented opportunity to
monitor and manipulate your server.
