REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE specifies whether Oracle checks for a password file.
Values:
- shared
One or more databases can use the password file. The password file can contain SYS as well as non-SYS users.
- exclusive
The password file can be used by only one database. The password file can contain SYS as well as non-SYS users.
- none
Oracle ignores any password file. Therefore, privileged users must be authenticated by the operating system.
Note
1. When REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE is set to either exclusive or shared, but the password file does not exist, then the behavior is the same as setting REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to none.
2. Basic Oracle parameter.
3. Query for the current value of the parameter
