Case Sensitive Passwords in Oracle Database 11g


Case Sensitive Passwords in Oracle Database 11g


Case sensitive passwords (and auditing) are a default feature of newly created Oracle 11g databases. The Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) allows you to revert these settings back to the pre-11g functionality during database creation.

The SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON initialization parameter gives control over case sensitive passwords. If existing applications struggle to authenticate against 11g, you can use the ALTER SYSTEM command to turn off this functionality.

SQL> SHOW PARAMETER SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON

NAME                                 TYPE        VALUE
------------------------------------ ----------- ------------------------------
sec_case_sensitive_logon             boolean     TRUE
SQL>


SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON = FALSE;

System altered.

Shared Pool Tuning: Cursor Tuning (Tuning Open_Cursors, Session_Cached_Cursors, Cursor_Space_For_Time)

Shared Pool Tuning: Cursor Tuning The three most important parameter for shared pool tuning are OPEN_CURSORS , SESSION_CACHED_CURSORS and CURSOR_SPACE_FOR_TIME. But most of the time we see that these two parameters SESSION_CACHED_CURSORS and CURSOR_SPACE_FOR_TIME are ignored or unused . OPEN CURSORS Open cursors take up space in the shared pool, in the library cache. OPEN_CURSORS sets the maximum number of cursors each session can have open, per session. For example, if OPEN_CURSORS is set to 1000, then each session can have up to 1000 cursors open at one time. V$open_cursor shows cached cursors, not currently open cursors, by session. If you’re wondering how many cursors a session has open, don’t look in v$open_cursor. It shows the cursors in the session cursor cache for each session, not cursors that are actually open.  To monitor open cursors, query v$sesstat where name= ’opened cursors current’ . This will give the number of currently opened cursors, by session:
