Changing SYS and SYSTEM

When SYS or SYSTEM passwords are changed it does not effect ongoing replicaiton because the ongoing replication because the SYS and SYSTEM passwords are used only when the *-all.sh is run. Once this script is executed and the replication is up and running, SYS and SYSTEM users are not used by Dbvisit Replicate at all. 

Note

Neither of MINE, APPLY nor FETCHER stores SYS and SYSTEM passwords therefore nothing has to be done when their passwords are changed.

Changing Dbvisit Replicate schema password

Dbvisit Replicate communicates with the source and target database through "dbvrep" the Dbvisit Replicate user created during execution of *-all.sh script. This defualt name can be changed during the setup wizard. Execute following steps after changing dbvrep password. By default this is "dbvrep".

To change the password for the Dbvisit Replicate schema:

1. Stop MINE/APPLY/FETCHER process.
