You can remove the "create session" priv from the RMAN user and this will make a little
harder for most users to connect, but RMAN will work fine :-)

Jared,

I followed Robert Freeman's advice and created an RMAN user in all my DBs called backup_admin with SYSDBA privilege so that RMAN doesn't use SYS or SYSTEM. This allows you to change system passwords at will and not interfere with backups. Works just fine.

Is this what you were talking about? Perhaps I misunderstood.

We are being asked by Auditing to stop using the SYS, and SYSTEM accounts. They would like for us to create an Oracle Role with the same permissions a SYS and SYSTEM, then grant the role to each of the DBA's. Don't ask me why. Nothing is being audited in 99% of the databases. They just say it in a paper some where so they said we shouldn't use it. This seems like it would cause lots of problems with exports, imports, installs, etc... Has anyone had to deal with this type of request? Any potential problems with making the change?

Thanks!
