Hi all,
I generally use SYSTEM rather than SYS for DBA work, and would like to
discourage the use of SYS as much as possible. Partly because it
bypasses auditing and the profile, and also because I tend to regard SYS
as being for Oracle-specific things (like running scripts from
$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin) and SYSTEM for doing the day-to-day tasks
(like administering storage, performance monitoring etc).
Does this reasoning make sense? And, what would be a good way to explain
it to developers who've gotten used to writing app installation scripts
than run as SYS (for example, they might refer to AQ$_AGENT rather than
SYS.AQ$_AGENT)?
Thanks,
g.
