  2. Objectives • After completing this lesson, you should be able to do the following: • Create and manage database user accounts • Create and manage roles • Grant and revoke privileges • Control resource usage by users

  3. Database User Accounts • Each database user account has a: • Unique username • Authentication method • Default tablespace • Temporary tablespace • User profile

  4. Creating a User • Select Users from the Administration properties page. Click the Create button.

  5. Profiles and Users • Users are assigned only one profile at any given time. • Profiles: • Control resource consumption • Manage passwords

  6. Authenticating Users • Password • External • Global

  7. Default and Temporary Tablespaces and Locking • Default: Default location of database objects • Temporary: Used for sorting

  8. Database Users and Schemas • The collection of objects owned by a user is the schema. • A user can be associated with only one schema. • Username and schema are often used interchangeably. Schema Objects Tables Triggers Indexes Views Sequences Stored program units Synonyms User-defined data types Database links

  9. Checklist for Creating Users • Select a profile. • Select an authentication technique. • Assign a default tablespace and temporary tablespace. • Grant privileges and roles to the user. • Decide on quotas for each tablespace.
