Re: SYSDBA and SYSOPER in ServerManager 4 windows

Hi;

The password is the password you specified when you used the orapwd utility to create your password file, as in: orapwd file=xxxxx password=yyyyyy entries=99. You can also grant sysdba or sysoper to individual accounts (grant sysdba to joe) and then connect (via svrmgr or whatever) as sysdba using that account.

select * from v$pwfile_users to see who has sysdba and/or sysoper privs.
