1. Cloud Control Administrator's Guide
2. Automating DBSNMP Password Management
G AUTOMATING DBSNMP PASSWORD MANAGEMENT
You can automate password management for users (monitoring only) that discovered
database instances in Enterprise Manager Cloud Control console via the Change
the Password for the Database Monitoring User job type. Typically, this is the
DBSNMP user.
When an Oracle database is installed, a DBSNMP user is provisioned
out-of-the-box that is primarily used for monitoring that database from
Enterprise Manager Cloud Control. The DBSNMP username and password are used both
during discovery and for collecting metrics from the Enterprise Manager agent.
DBSNMP is also used when collecting metrics that show up on the database home
page in the Enterprise Manager console.
Password rotation is a normal part of the security policy for all users, and
this typically applies to the DBSNMP user as well. This becomes a burden when
dealing with hundreds or perhaps thousands of databases. This task usually
involves changing the password for this database user and then updating all
Enterprise Manager configurations that use this password for
monitoring/administrating that database. Enterprise Manager can automate this
task by allowing the Job system to perform this password change operation for
DBSNMP, or any other dedicated database monitoring user within Enterprise
Manager.
The Change the Password for the Database Monitoring User job type lets you
schedule jobs on Oracle Database and Cluster Database instances, and when
executed, updates the password of the monitoring ser (the user used to discover
the database instance in Enterprise Manager, typically DBSNMP). A new password
can be user-specified or auto-generated by Enterprise ManagerThe Change the
Password for the Database Monitoring User job type lets you schedule jobs on
Oracle Database and Cluster Database instances, and when executed updates the
password of the Monitoring User (the user used to discover the database instance
in Enterprise Manager, typically DBSNMP). A new password can be user specified
or auto-generated by Enterprise Manager.
The user-defined password option typically makes sense for a one-time scheduled
job since manually having to run this job periodically will not effectively
change the password across job runs. Having Enterprise Manager auto-generate
random passwords is more effective from a security standpoint.
IMPORTANT: The password change job should only be used for DBSNMP (or other
monitoring users) configured with the Normal role and where Enterprise Manager
is the only product/user attempting to access the actual database as this user.
Once Enterprise Manager changes the password to a generated one, this
auto-generated password will not be known to anyone but Enterprise Manager and
its components, e.g., the agent. The password change job will not permit
updating of a password for a SYSDBA or SYSOPER user. This job also does not
support the update of the password of Enterprise Manager repository monitoring
user or of a DataGuard standby instance. Also no Global scoped named
credentials,if any are defined for the monitoring user, will be updated.
Note:
It is recommended that the Enterprise Manager user running this job be the user
that initially discovered these database targets or else needs to have at least
the following Enterprise Manager target privileges on the database/cluster.
* CONFIGURE_TARGET
* CONNECT_TARGET
* BLACKOUT_TARGET
* EDIT_CREDENTIAL (monitoring and any saved named credentials) This privilege
is required because the job blacks out the targets and updates the
credentials/monitoring configuration both on the target and in Enterprise
Manager as well as updating any named credentials for this database user in
Enterprise Manager.
Configuring and Scheduling the Job
1. From the Enterprise menu, choose Job and then Activity. On the Activity
page, click Create Job. The Select Job Type dialog displays.
Choose the Change the password of the Database Monitoring User job type and
click Select.
2. Define the job by specifying the required attributes (Job Name, Description,
etc.) as well as selecting list of targets on which to schedule/run the job.
Note:
Instead of selecting a list of targets, you could also create a dynamic
group and select the group. When selecting a dynamic group, all instances of
type Oracle Database and Cluster Database present in the group will have the
monitoring user passwords updated when the job is executed.
If there are a large number of targets being selected, it is recommended to
specify a number reasonable for your environment (around 3) so that all of
these jobs are not executed in parallel. Running large numbers of jobs in
parallel will not only overload the job system, but also cause your targets
to be in blackout concurrently.
3. Specify a New Password if you do not want Enterprise Manager to
auto-generate a password as shown below.
Auto-Generate New Password must be set to No. Enter the new password. If the
new password and confirmation do not match, an inline error message will
appear and you will not be able to submit the job.
As mentioned previously, if no parameters are specified in the Parameters
tab, then a new password will be generated. Auto-generated passwords are
only known to and managed by Enterprise Manager.
4. Define a schedule for this job. This would typically be the interval after
which the monitoring user password needs to be changed as per the password
profile defined for the database.
Click Submit.
Viewing the job run output (executions per target)
You can view the status/output of the password change job by clicking on the job
name in the Job Activity table as shown below.
