Solaris 5.8 Oracle 8.1.7.2
Has anyone successfully renamed the Oracle user on a solaris box? At the
moment I don't a test box and this is a rarely used development system.
The current Oracle user and group are oracle2 and dba2. We have to
change it to match our standards, i.e. oracle & dba.
The plan is to (after a full system backup):
1) Create the correct local user & group with the same home directory.
2) Shutdown all Oracle processes.
3) Find . -user oracle2 -exec chown oracle {} \;
4) Find . -user dba2 -exec chgrp dba {} \;
5) Modify all scripts to use the correct group & user.
6) Pray.
7) Start the database and listener.
8) Check for functionality & errors.
9) Shut everything down and take a full system backup.
Am I missing anything? Is there any problems with the method?
Thanks,
