1. Create a UNIX group for the system operators. By default on UNIX it is the 'oper' group.
2. Remake the oracle executable so the group is included.
- cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
- vi config.s
- (Solaris) change the second occurrence of .ascii "dba\0" in the file to be .ascii "new_grp\0"
- mv config.o config.o.orig
- make -f ins_rdbms.mk ioracle
3. Run the following script to allow the oper group to have access to the Oracle directories and executables:
$ORACLE_HOME/install/changePerm.sh
