Oracle Enterprise Manager Installation Guide

Login Information

You connect to the Oracle database that contains the repository tables using the Login Information dialog box. The elements of the Connect dialog box are described below:

Username Your Oracle username for the database to which you are connecting.
Password Your Oracle password for the database to which you are connecting.
Service Name SQL*Net service name for the database to which you are connecting. You should use SQL*Net Version 2 service names, such as NY_FINANCE, when connecting.
The connect strings for the service names in the snmp.ora, topology.ora, and tnsnames.ora files must match. If not, the agents used by the Job and Event systems will not be able to locate the database.
Connect As Pop-up menu containing NORMAL, SYSOPER, and SYSDBA for Oracle7 release 7.1 or later. Only Normal is allowed for release 7.0.
SYSOPER and SYSDBA roles allow you the maximum database administration privileges. For more information, see the Oracle7 Server Administrator's Guide.

Note: You will need SYSDBA or SYSOPER privileges to run job tasks such as shutdown or startup on the database.

OK Initiates connection.
Cancel Exits dialog box without connecting.
Help Displays help information.

Note: See the Oracle Enterprise Manager Administrator's Guide for more information on connecting to a database.

Multiple Connections

In Enterprise Manager you can have multiple database connections open simultaneously. For example, you can launch several database applications on different databases. The service name you specify when you connect becomes part of the title for each window associated with that connection.

Note: The number of connections you can have open simultaneously depends on the system and network you are using.
