Using SUDO for SAP Administration

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have the need for security reasons to implement the program SUDO for system administration of SAP and DB.

Now, not knowing SUDO my questions are:

Since SUDO login with a signature by name (ex. smith) I can make all administrative tasks that today, for SAP literature, must be conducted with SIDADM and ORASID directly on the systems?

Also, if you can, there are restrictions / limits for the administration and SAP DB?

Regards,

Diego.

Sudo is simply a command that let you execute commands as another user.

As per my experience using it, it will just mean that you'll have to logon with your user and then do sudo to sidadm or orasid, that should not stop you from doing your daily tasks.

must be conducted with SIDADM and ORASID directly on the systems?

Certainly.

there are restrictions / limits for the administration and SAP DB?

I didn't get this question.
