14.3.1.3.1 Storing User Credentials in a Wallet

The following steps describe the process for adding the credentials to the wallet zip file. It is important that you store this wallet file along with the credentials in a safe location for security reasons.

  1. Unzip the cloud wallet zip file in a temporary directory.
  2. Use the service name alias in the tnsnames.ora to store credentials by running the following command:

    For example, if the service name alias is db202002041627_medium:

    ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin/mkstore –wrl /tmp/cloudwallet
          –createCredential db202002041627_medium username password
  3. Zip the cloud wallet files into a new zip file.
