Enable the Primary Administrator

This OKM console function enables the primary administrator (equivalent to root access).

Caution:

Enabling this feature allows someone logged in as Technical Support to gain Primary Administrator access, equivalent to root access. Since the passphrase for the Primary Administrator is known only by Oracle Support, only someone from Oracle Support can gain Primary Administrator access. This may be necessary in some situations to recover the system from a problem, however, only do so with direct guidance from support.
