Crontab

Qcheck — Fri, 26 May 2006 09:06:14 GMT

Hi All,

User account oracle doesn't have access to create crontab. In hpux, do I need to add oracle account in /var/adm/cron/cron.allow file, so that oracle will gain access to create their own crontab jobs?

Thanks for the help!

Hi:

Yes, you do. You probably want to add the oracle user to '/var/adm/cron/at.allow' too as a convenience to your DBA(s).

Regards!

Yes, then it should work.

Hi Prathiba,

Yes, certainly you need to add oracle user to cron.allow.
