caths.sql	Heterogeneous Services	SYS	Installs packages for administering heterogeneous services
catio.sql	Performance management	SYS	Allows I/O to be traced on a table-by-table basis
catoctk.sql	Security	SYS	Creates the Oracle Cryptographic Toolkit package
catqueue.sql	Advanced Queuing		Creates the dictionary objects required for Advanced Queuing
catrep.sql	Oracle Replication	SYS	Runs all SQL scripts for enabling database replication
catrman.sql	Recovery Manager	RMAN or any user with GRANT_RECOVERY_CATALOG_OWNER role	Creates recovery manager tables and views (schema) to establish an external recovery catalog for the backup, restore, and recovery functionality provided by the Recovery Manager (RMAN) utility
dbmsiotc.sql	Storage management	Any user	Analyzes chained rows in index-organized tables
dbmsotrc.sql	Performance management	SYS or SYSDBA	Enables and disables generation of Oracle Trace output
dbmspool.sql	Performance management	SYS or SYSDBA	Enables DBA to lock PL/SQL packages, SQL statements, and triggers into the shared pool
userlock.sql	Concurrency control	SYS or SYSDBA	Provides a facility for user-named locks that can be used in a local or clustered environment to aid in sequencing application actions
utlbstat.sql and utlestat.sql	Performance monitoring	SYS	Respectively start and stop collecting performance tuning statistics
utlchn1.sql	Storage management	Any user	For use with Oracle9i. Creates tables for storing the output of the ANALYZE command with the CHAINED ROWS option. Can handle both physical and logical rowids.
utlconst.sql	Year 2000 compliance	Any user	Provides functions to validate that CHECK constraints on date columns are year 2000 compliant
utldtree.sql	Metadata management	Any user	Creates tables and views that show dependencies between objects
utlexpt1.sql	Constraints	Any user	For use with Oracle9i. Creates the default table (EXCEPTIONS) for storing exceptions from enabling constraints. Can handle both physical and logical rowids.
utlip.sql	PL/SQL	SYS	Used primarily for migration, upgrade, and downgrade operations. It invalidates all existing PL/SQL modules by altering certain dictionary tables so that subsequent recompilations will occur in the format required by the database. It also reloads the packages STANDARD and DBMS_STANDARD, which are necessary for any PL/SQL compilations.
utlirp.sql	PL/SQL	SYS	Used to change from 32-bit to 64-bit word size or vice versa. This script recompiles existing PL/SQL modules in the format required by the new database. It first alters some data dictionary tables. Then it reloads the packages STANDARD and DBMS_STANDARD, which are necessary for using PL/SQL. Finally, it triggers a recompilation of all PL/SQL modules, such as packages, procedures, and types.
utllockt.sql	Performance monitoring	SYS or SYSDBA	Displays a lock wait-for graph, in tree structure format
utlpwdmg.sql	Security	SYS or SYSDBA	Creates PL/SQL functions for default password complexity verification. Sets the default password profile parameters and enables password management features.
utlrp.sql	PL/SQL	SYS	Recompiles all existing PL/SQL modules that were previously in an INVALID state, such as packages, procedures, and types.
utlsampl.sql	Examples	SYS or any user with DBA role	Creates sample tables, such as emp and dept, and users, such as scott
utlscln.sql	Oracle Replication	Any user	Copies a snapshot schema from another snapshot site
utltkprf.sql	Performance management	SYS	Creates the TKPROFER role to allow the TKPROF profiling utility to be run by non-DBA users
utlvalid.sql	Partitioned tables	Any user	Creates tables required for storing output of ANALYZE TABLE ...VALIDATE STRUCTURE of a partitioned table
utlxplan.sql	Performance management	Any user	Creates the table PLAN_TABLE, which holds output from the EXPLAIN PLAN statement
