MININGDBLOGIN

Use MININGDBLOGIN to establish a connection to a downstream Oracle database logmining server in preparation to issue other Oracle GoldenGate commands that affect this database, such as REGISTER EXTRACT.

To log into a source Oracle Database that serves as the database logmining server, use the DBLOGIN command. MININGDBLOGIN is reserved for login to a downstream mining database.

The user who issues MININGDBLOGIN must:

Have privileges granted through the Oracle dbms_goldengate_auth.grant_admin_privilege procedure.
Be the user that is specified with the TRANLOGOPTIONS MININGUSER parameter for the Extract group that is associated with this MININGDBLOGIN.

Admin Client Syntax

MININGDBLOGIN USERIDALIAS alias [DOMAIN domain]

GGSCI Syntax

MININGDBLOGIN {
USERID {/ | userid}[, PASSWORD password]
   [algorithm ENCRYPTKEY {keyname | DEFAULT}] |
USERIDALIAS alias [DOMAIN domain] |
[SYSDBA]
}

USERID

Supplies a database login credential. Can be used if an Oracle GoldenGate credential store is not in use. (See the USERIDALIAS option.) Input varies, depending on the database, as follows:

userid

Specifies the name of a database user or a SQL*Net connect string. To log into a pluggable database in an Oracle multitenant container database, specify userid as a connect string, such as OGGUSER@FINANCE. To log into the root container, specify userid as a common user, including the C## prefix, such as C##GGADMIN@FINANCE.

/

(Oracle) Directs Oracle GoldenGate to use an operating-system login for Oracle, not a database user login. Use this argument only if the database allows authentication at the operating-system level. To use this option, the correct user name must exist in the database, in relation to the value of the Oracle OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX initialization parameter, see the USERID | NOUSERID parameter.

PASSWORDpassword

Use when authentication is required to specify the password for the database user. If the password was encrypted by means of the ENCRYPT PASSWORD command, supply the encrypted password; otherwise, supply the clear-text password. If the password is case-sensitive, type it that way.

If the PASSWORD clause is omitted, you are prompted for a password, and the password is not echoed.

algorithm

If the password was encrypted with the ENCRYPT PASSWORD command, specify the encryption algorithm that was used:

AES128

AES192

AES256

BLOWFISH

ENCRYPTKEY {keyname| DEFAULT}

Specifies the encryption key that was specified with the ENCRYPT PASSWORD command. Use one of the following:

ENCRYPTKEYkeyname: Specifies the logical name of a user-created encryption key in the ENCKEYS lookup file. Use if ENCRYPT PASSWORD was used with the KEYNAME keyname option.
ENCRYPTKEY DEFAULT: Directs Oracle GoldenGate to generate a Blowfish key. Use if the ENCRYPT PASSWORD command was used with the KEYNAME DEFAULT option.

USERIDALIAS alias[DOMAINdomain]

Supplies the alias of a database login credential. Can be used instead of the USERID option if there is a local Oracle GoldenGate credential store that contains a credential with the required privileges for this MININGDBLOGIN command.

To log into a pluggable database in an Oracle multitenant container database, the user must be stored as a connect string, such as OGGUSER@FINANCE. To log into the root container, the user must be stored as a common user, including the C## prefix, such as C##GGADMIN@FINANCE.

alias: Specifies the alias of a database user credential that is stored in the Oracle GoldenGate credential store. The user that is specified with USERIDALIAS must be the common database user.
DOMAIN domain: Specifies the credential store domain for the specified alias. A valid domain entry must exist in the credential store for the specified alias.

SYSDBA

(Oracle) Specifies that the user logs in as sysdba. This option can be used for USERID and USERIDALIAS.
