OracleInventoryAsSysdba

IT Asset Management (Cloud)

Command line | Registry

OracleInventoryAsSysdba applies on UNIX-like platforms only. It modifies the command line used for the Oracle utility sqlplus during inventory gathering, allowing use of a custom account name.

Tip: This preference only controls the command line to be used in the event that gathering Oracle inventory is permitted by other preferences:

• PerformLocalScripting
• PerformOracleInventory
• IncludeLocalScriptRule
• ExcludeLocalScriptRule.

The effect of OracleInventoryAsSysdba is:

• When OracleInventoryAsSysdba=True (or when the value is not specified), the inventory component (ndtrack) uses the following command to access the Oracle Database for inventory gathering:

  sqlplus "/ as sysdba"

• When OracleInventoryAsSysdba=False, the inventory component (ndtrack) uses the following:

  sqlplus "/ " 

  Notice the trailing white space in this case.

Tip: When OracleInventoryAsSysdba=False, it is mandatory to set an account name, using OracleInventoryUser (see OracleInventoryUser).
