Do I need to have ORAPWD files as user Oracle in 4 Node RAC

in Database Administration (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered ✓

We have a 19.17 4 node RAC system running on RHEL7

Currently we have orapwd files in place (in ORACLE_HOME/dbs) but have been told to remove them by security.

Are they actually required by the RAC config or can we safely remove them?

Many Thanks
