sys.x$dbgalertext alert log info text access [message #683518]

I am attempting to query the alert log view/table thru sys.x$dbgalertext. I found out that I had no access to it. I tried to check if the view/table exist thru the dba_objects. It appears to be it does not exists on the dba_objects view but I know somehow that object exists and I just don't have access to it.

SQL> describe sys.x$dbgalertext;
ERROR:
ORA-04043: object sys.x$dbgalertext does not exist


SQL> select count(*) from dba_objects where object_name like '%DBGALERTTEXT%';

  COUNT(*)
----------
         0

SQL>

I have a dba access but not a sys or sysdba access. I know that somehow I had to request an access for it from our "infrastructure dba group" and I just want to be sure that sys.x$dbgalertext exists. Please advise.

Thank you.

You need to ask your DBA to create a view on x$dbgalertext and grant you SELECT on the view. This is done by default in release 12.x.

@John, are you sure there is a view on it in 12.*? I didn't find it in my databases (there is only one on x$diag_ALERT_EXT).
