Database link for SYS [message #26954] Fri, 08 August 2003 14:55 Go to next message

I used the following syntax to create a database link:

create database link TEST
connect to SYS identified by ****** using 'TEST';

Here is my attempt to use the link and the error message:

select count(*) from lics.lc_web_servers@test
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28009: connection to sys should be as sysdba or sysoper
ORA-02063: preceding line from TEST

How can I define this link to connect as sysdba or is that specified in the query syntax?

To connect to sys as sysdba:

SQL> CONNECT SYS/change_on_intall AS SYSDBA;

However, you probably want to create your link as system or something else:

create database link TEST
connect to SYSTEM identified by manager using 'TEST';

Apparently your global_names parameter is set to true, which requires that the name of the database link be the same as the name of the database. So, you need to either change your global_names parameter to false, then re-create your database link the way you want it or leave your global_names paramter set to true and re-create the datbase link, using the name of the database as the name of the database link, something like:

CREATE DATABASE LINK cclworks.us.oracle.com
CONNECT TO username
IDENTIFIED BY password
USING 'CCLWORKS.US.ORACLE.COM'
/

The global_names parameter is in your initialization parameter file, which may be named init.ora or something similar, and should be in some sub-directory of your oracle home directory, depending on your operating system, Oracle version, and so forth. For example, for Oracle 8.1.7 on Windows NT, the default is:

oracle81adminoracle81pfileinit.ora

unless you have changed it. You can also change it from SQL*Plus temporarily for your session or instance, using:

SQL> ALTER SESSION SET GLOBAL_NAMES=FALSE;

or:

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET GLOBAL_NAMES=FALSE;
