orapass command
Retrieves a database password for an Oracle user.
Parameters:
-
-d: Use the -d flag to specify the database name. If the database name is not specified then the ORACLE_SID environment variable is used. There is no default value so the database name must be specified using either the -d flag or the ORACLE_SID environment variable.
-
-h: Use the -h flag to specify the host that the database resides on. If the host is not specified then the ORACLE_HOST environment variable is used. If neither is specified then this defaults to localhost.
-
-p: Use the -u flag to specify the port for the oracle listener. If the port is not specified then the ORACLE_PORT environment variable is used. If neither is specified then this defaults to 1521.
-
-u: Use the -u flag to specify the database user. If the user is not specified then the ORACLE_USER environment variable is used. If neither is specified then this defaults to the logged in user.
-
-f: Use the -f flag to specify the orapass file to search for first. If not specified (or found) then the file specified by the ORAPASSFILE environment variable is searched for next. If neither is specified (or found) then the search continues. Run with the debug flag to see the file locations searched for.
-
-q: Use the -q flag to quiet any error messages.
-
-debug: Use the -debug flag to print debug information.
