8.179 V$RO_USER_ACCOUNT

V$RO_USER_ACCOUNT is populated only on Oracle databases that are open in read-only mode. When a database is read-only, security data cannot be stored in normal catalogue tables. Instead, the security data is stored in an in-memory table that is queried through this view.

In an Oracle Data Guard environment, some of the security information for user accounts on the standby is inherited from the primary server. For example, if the account is locked out unlimited on the primary, then it will be locked on the standby database(s). The information stored on the standby is volatile information that user actions on the standby database(s) can affect, such as the number of failed logins, and the time the account was locked on the standby due to failed access attempts. Note that failed login attempts on standbys do not affect the account status on primaries.

If this view is queried from the root in a multitenent container database (CDB), then only common users and the SYS user are returned.

If this view is queried from a pluggable database (PDB), only rows that pertain to the current PDB are returned.

Column	Datatype	Description
USERID	NUMBER	User ID number
PASSW_EXPIRED	NUMBER	Indicates whether the password has expired (1) or not (0)
PASSW_IN_GRACE	NUMBER	Indicates whether the account is in grace (1) or not (0)
PASSW_LOCKED	NUMBER	Indicates whether the account is locked (1) or not (0)
PASSW_LOCK_UNLIM	NUMBER	Indicates whether the account is locked for an unlimited time (1) or not (0)
FAILED_LOGINS	NUMBER	The number of failed login attempts. The count is not cumulative; it is reset upon successful logon to the account
EXPIRATION_AFTER_GRACE	TIMESTAMP(3)	The expiration time after grace
PASSW_LOCK_TIME	TIMESTAMP(3)	The time the account was locked out
CON_ID	NUMBER	The ID of the container where the failed login occurred. For users that are not common users, the CON_IDis the PDB ID where the failed login attempt occurred. For common users, the CON_ID is 0. The login attempts that occurred on a PDB are not displayed when you query V$RO_USER_ACCOUNT from another PDB. You only see the failed login attempts of any users (that are not common users) if those failed login attempts occurred on the same PDB from which you are querying V$RO_USER_ACCOUNT. The failed login attempts of common users (and of the SYS user) are only displayed when V$RO_USER_ACCOUNT is queried from the root of a CDB, not when it is queried from a PDB. In a non-CDB, the value is always 0.
USERNAME	VARCHAR2(128)	User name
