Using Microsoft Management Console to Administer a Database

Microsoft Management Console provides a central location for network administration.

Microsoft Management Console hosts applications (called snap-ins) that administrators can use to manage their networks. Oracle snap-ins enable database administrators to:

  • Configure Oracle Database administrators, operators, users, and roles so the Windows operating system can authenticate them

  • Configure OracleServiceSID

  • Modify registry parameters for all Oracle homes on the computer

  • Modify the computer host name, user name, and password for the database

  • View and terminate an Oracle Database thread
