URGENT: How do I change the default oracle "system" password

[rascal911]

We have tivoli installed on AIX connecting to an Oracle 8i database. When I changed the password for SYSTEM from the oracle default MANAGER to something else the TDP failed to connect. How do we change the password used by tivoli so we can connect and perform Online Backups.

We are 24 hours away from going live and this will not happen unless we get this resolved.

hi
if you have the tme on a different machine and using a listener, maybe you have a problem with the listener connecting, look into listener.ora
mabe this helps you a little

wruntask -t Listener
-l OracleManagerTasks
-h @OracleDatabase:v816@manzana
-o 15
-a listener_mode="Start Listener"
-a listener_name="ohioServer"
-a listener_password="swordfish"

or on desktop you have to edit your database properties
right mouse then props, edit props, then you get some details also the sys and pass
with this you may do it at CLI

wochregdb
[–h ORACLE_HOME]
[–t TNS_ADMIN]
[–o owner]
[–g owner-group]
[–u username]
[–p password]
database-name

hope this helps
ciao joe
