4.2.3.2 Verify the Group Membership of Your User ID

Describes how to determine the group memberships required by OML4R Server.

As described in "About Operating System Authentication", the Linux or UNIX user ID that runs the OML4R Server installation script must belong to the dba group. Membership in the dba group is also required for running other OML4R scripts on the server. On Windows, the dba group is called ora_dba.

To determine the group membership of your Linux or UNIX user ID, type this command:

% groups
dba  othergroup

To determine the group membership of your Windows user ID:

1. Open Windows Control Panel.
2. Select Users Accounts.
3. Select Manage User Accounts.
4. On the Users tab of the User Accounts dialog, the name, domain, and group of each user account are listed. Verify that your user ID belongs to the group ora_dba.
