I checked and it works like a charm. Here is the PL/SQL block that I
ran:
11:00:47 SQL select sid,serial# from v$session where username='SCOTT';
SIDSERIAL#
-- --
10535
Elapsed: 00:00:00.50
11:01:10 SQL ed 1
11:01:32 SQL /
SIDSERIAL#
Thanks to all who replied.

Hi All,
Further to that, it is necessary to use DBMS_SQL or native dynamic SQL for
this
as PL/SQL does not support ALTER SYSTEM directly.

Are you sure that "execute immediate" doesn't support "alter system"
command? Maybe it's a bug? Which version, which OS?

Lee,
In
short, you can't achieve this within Oracle domain short of granting ALTER
SYSTEM to user in question or going via PL/SQL procedure owned by other, more
protectedschema.
However, a tool like TOAD will provide similar capability for you - a
user is capable to "cancel" long running
Create a procedure as SYS (or someone else powerful)
which does the 'alter system' and then grant just the
proc to the user

I don't think you can kill yourself anymore, at least in 8.1.6. Even as a DBA, Oracle
wouldn't let me off myself...

Hello,
Li,
I
believe, stored procedure is the best and simplyest way for this purpose. There
is nothing wrong giving ALTER SYSTEM to _procedure owner_. End user will
be limited to execute this procedure only, and will not require ALTER SYSTEM for
him/herself.
