Starting database service

75833Jan 27 2003
Hi,

On a W2K system we have installed a 8.1.7 database. Starting the NT service OraclePROD, manual or automatic, doesn't start the database. The database must be started thru SVRMGRL. So we have make a command file for starting the database thru the scheduler. This commandfile calls SVRMGRL connect internal. And it then starts a SQL file wich starts the database.

So far so good. But now everybody can see and read these scripts and knows how to start SVRMGRL. They don't need to know the password. Just connect internal.

My questions are:


- Why doesn't the start service not automatically starts the database?

- How can i improve security when i need to work like the above example shows. So can i prevent the users to start SVRMGRL as internal without giving the password. While i have script who can.

regards,

Joshua
