Security question regarding local administrator rights.
We are in the process of migrating all our databases from Unix to Windows. I have bolded the confusing statement from the doucmentation below. The particular documenation is on11g R2 (documentation part Number E10845-01) Chapter 10, Administering External Users and Roles on Windows in the section “Granting Administrator Privileges for All Databases on a Computer”
The consfusing statement is
“Note:
If you use a domain account for database installation, then the domain user must be granted local administrative privileges. It is not sufficient if the domain user has inherited membership privileges from another group. You must ensure that, the user performing the installation must be in the same domain, if not it results in an NTS authentication failure.”
