Relaxing Oracle Permissions

During OTM installs, I commonly hit issues where the file permissions on the Oracle DB client directory was too restrictive. This prevents the OTM server from using the Oracle client and causes certain functions to fail - such as the Python integration scripts and CSV uploads using sqlloader.

A quick fix or this is to run the changePerm.sh script like so:

Code:
[root@otmserver ~]# su - oracle
[oracle@otmserver ~]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/install
[oracle@otmserver install]$ ./changePerm.sh 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclaimer: The purpose of this script is to relax permissions on some of the
files in the database Oracle Home so that all clients can access them.
Please note that Oracle Corporation recommends using the most restrictive file
permissions as possible for your given implementation.  Running this script
should be done only after considering all security ramifications.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you wish to continue (y/n) [n]: y

Finished running the script successfully
Please see /tmp/changePerm_err.log for errors and /tmp/changePerm.log for the log of events
[oracle@otmserver install]$
That's it!

I hope this helps!

Thanks,
Chris
