Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: question on a "OCP reveiw question"
This is my take on the following subject.
Object Privileges Corresponding System privileges.
As per the explanation below, the Index Privilege cannot be granted to the role.
Hence the question
Which privilege can only be granted to a user?
An extract from Release 7.1
Each type of object has different privileges associated with it. Table 12 - 2 summarizes the object privileges available for each type of object.
Object Privilege Table View Sequence Procedure1 ALTER _/ _/ DELETE _/ _/ EXECUTE / INDEX _/2 INSERT _/ _/ REFERENCES _/2 SELECT _/ _/3 _/ UPDATE _/ _/
Table 12 - 2. Object Privileges
1 Includes stand-alone stored procedures and functions, and public package constructs. 2 Privilege cannot be granted to a role. 3 Can also be granted for snapshots.

Subject: Re: question on a "OCP reveiw question"
Roles can't own objects. So a role cannot create an index....
