Enter passwords for the internal system users

This form is only shown when Extended Server or Web Client is deployed.
The Internal System Users were created and passwords set after database install, in the Configure Foundation1 steps.

The passwords for the Internal Users are stored in encrypted format.

Depending on Authentication method setup the value for Login and Password can differ.

Passwords for Internal Users

Passwords for the users can be assigned by clicking on the Edit buttons. Once an Edit button is clicked you will see the corresponding  Edit Internal User dialog box as shown below.

There are two ways of configuring a password:

  1. Change instance configuration:

    Updates all instance configuration files with the new password in an encrypted format.

  2. Change Oracle user password:

    Updates, not only the Instance configuration files, but also the Oracle User password (in the database).

    If this option is selected, you should enter the current database user password in Old Password in order to update the database.
