> 1.  Database ON LOGON Trigger => don't know whether it will work

Have you tried this? 

It absolutely will work, and would be easier to use and administer.

applying H


Hi Gurus,

Thanks for replying to my qn.

"Startup Database in Restricted mode" will not work (for more details, pls
refer to the email below).

The following solutions :
1.  Database ON LOGON Trigger => don't know whether it will work
2.  Lock Database Account => I am going to use this solution.
3.  Change Database Account Password => I believe it will work

In our Oracle HR, we also support oracle client-server forms/reports, so
I've to disable their accounts so that they do not access the HR database
using sqlplus/forms/reports while I am applying patches.


Regds,
Catherine

                                 As you are talking of Oracle Apps, NONE 
of the suggested
solutions :
                                 1.  Database ON LOGON Trigger
                                 2.  Lock Database Account
                                 3.  Change Database Account Password
                                 4.  Startup Database in Restricted mode
                                 would work.

                                 The users connect to the Database in the 
APPS schema -- this
is the
                                 "universal"
                                 schema that Oracle Apps uses.  The Patch 
requires APPS so
Restricted
                                 doesn't
                                 help (unless you grant Restricted to APPS 
in which case all
the users can
                                 logon).
                                 Ditto about locking, changing password or 
writing a trigger
on the APPS
                                 schema.

                                 What you can do are :
                                 1. Shutdown the Apache server for the 
Self-Service Modules
                                 2. Shutdown the Forms server for the 
Forms Module
                                 3. Shutdown the Concurrent Managers.

                                 All of the above would affect ALL users.

                                 Alternatively, login to the Application 
as the System
Administrator user
                                 and
                                 change the Application User Passwords for 
the users whom you
want disabled.
                                 Change the passwords back to a default 
(WELCOME) later.

                                 However, what you SHOULD do, per Oracle 
Support, is 1.
Shutdown 2. Shutdown
                                 3. Shutdown
                                 as I have listed above.
                                 If you are familiar with Oracle 
Applications Patching and
are comfortable
                                 with reading
                                 the Patch drivers, you can figure out 
what database objects
are being
                                 modified/updated/created
                                 and what Forms/Reports/HTML etc files are 
being
modified/created by the
                                 patch.
                                 Then you can take an intelligent decision 
.... should you
allow users to
                                 logon when
                                 applying the patch ?

                                 Hi Gurus,

                                 I need to disable certain users from 
login to database while
I apply the
                                 Human Resources Patches for our Oracle HR 
11i Applications.
                                 Which is the best way to do it ? Should I 
write on-logon
trigger to disable
                                 or should I take away their privileges to 
logon to
report/forms/sqlplus ?
                                 What about the rest of the DBA 
Applications administrator ?
What do U guys
                                 do to solve the dead-lock problem (If my 
users access the HR
tables while I
                                 apply the patches, I will encounter 
dead-lock problem) ?

                                 Please advise. Thanks.

                                 Regds,
