dbaascli dv on

The dv on subcommand of the dbaascli utility is used to configure and enable Oracle Database Vault in a database deployment.

dbaascli dv on [cdb|pdb]

The utility prompts the user for the following:

Database Vault Owner user name
Database Vault Owner password
Database Vault Account Manager user name
Database Vault Account Manager password
PDB name, if the pdb option is specified

If no options are specified, the utility will configure and enable Database Vault on the root container (CDB) and all existing PDBs of a database deployment using Oracle Database 12c or later. It will set the same Database Vault credentials in the root container and the PDBs.

If you want to enable Database Vault on PDBs separately, you must first enable Database Vault on the CDB.

In a database deployment using Oracle Database 12c or later, the Database Vault Owner and Account Manager user names must begin with c##.

Review "What to Expect After You Enable Oracle Database Vault" in Oracle Database Vault Administrator’s Guide for Release 18, 12.2, 12.1 or 11.2 to gain an understanding of the impact of enabling and configuring Database Vault.

Options of this subcommand are as follows.

Option	Description
`cdb`	The `cdb` option is used to configure and enable Database Vault on the root container (CDB) only in a database deployment using Oracle Database 12c or later.
`pdb`	The `pdb` option is used to configure and enable Database Vault on a specific PDB in a database deployment using Oracle Database 12c or later. When this option is used, the utility also prompts the user for the PDB name. Database Vault must be enabled on the CDB before you can enable it on any PDBs. Provide the same credentials for the PDB as you provided for the CDB.
