Establish SQLPLUS Connection

To connect to SQLPLUS, execute the following steps:

  1. Open a command prompt in Windows.

    Alternatively, in Unix, type at the shell prompt.

  2. Enter the sqlplus <dbuser>@<tnsnames_entry> command, and press Enter.
  3. Enter the password when prompted by the SQLPLUS program.

    You must not enter the password in the same command line that is used while calling the SQLPLUS program.
