EUS and asmcmd
I have been working a lot with EUS lately at a big customer. My personal account is able to login to databases (EUS) and also on to OEL (OAS4OS). This combined with some chown/chmod commands on OEL enables me to do my job with my personal account.
Since this customers also uses ASM, I figured I would like to use my personal account for asmcmd too. First I tested the process with a local account, baby steps usually works best for me. I created an account jhl
# useradd -g asmadmin -G dba jhl
Next i su’d to jhl and tested the procedure:
$ id
uid=10238(jhl) gid=4007(asmadmin) groups=4006(dba),4007(asmadmin)$ . oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [+ASM1] ? +ASM1

ASMCMD> ls
This looks promising, all needed to be done next was repeating the steps only now with an account from the OID. First I had to add the group to the OID, here’s the ldif I used:
