I need my Oracle database (single instance 10GR2) to be able to access certain files on the network. Running the service under the local system account prevents this. I will be using UNC paths so I won’t run into any drive mapping issues.
What account should I use? How do I setup such an account?
Any expriences are welcome.
Go to the Services manager (Start -> Run -> “services.msc”)
Select the Oracle services you need to change, right-click, and choose “Properties”
Click the “Log On” tab
You can set it to any account you like there.
