Weirdly enough my Oracle adventures took me first to Oracle Cloud World in Vegas.. Then to AWS re:Invent in Vegas and now again after few months.. Google Next 25 in Vegas. 😀🇨🇦🇫🇮🇺🇸

Looks like MOS (Oracle Support), enabled MFA yesterday for accounts. Continuing the good track record with MOS updates, seems you can only use SMS or email for the second factor. Using the Mobile Authenticator is probably too much. The login process is now THREE PAGES vs the old single login.

Here's my ora-dbXchecker which prints the output of Exa infrastructure in OCI/Azure/GCP. FIgured it'll be good to get summary of the whole Exadata via APIs and not run single commands/browse the Console. github.com/svilmune/ora... @oracleace

GitHub - svilmune/ora-dbcXchecker: This script retrieves details of Exadata Infrastructure and VM Clusters in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and works with DB@Azure and DB@GCP for Exadata.

Was writing a blog post on Autonomous DB and private endpoints (and DNS). We had issue where using UTL_HTTP and adding ACL gave unknown host for private API GW and after adding ROUTE_OUTBOUND_CONNECTIONS property it started to work. However.. :) Provisioned new DB and it works without the property!

Hey Oracle folks, if I use Autonomous DB and login to DB tools with Admin user (from OCI Console) - does any audit log link that Admin user to a OCI identity? I want to know who logged on! 🙂 I've looked through Data Safe and it gets the OCI Console as source ip only I think?

I feel like there's not enough talk about the new Oracle Support page. I know we can still use the old one, but whoever decided this is good to go for production use errr. The amount of hours we've poured into figuring this out past weeks is absurd.

Heading back home today from 🇫🇮. Nice things here, everything is pretty much online. No need for small talk. 😀 Bad things: no need for small talk, it feels weird sometimes now living so long abroad when people don't talk so much. Also: Sauna ❤️

Yay! I changed my handle here. Cool. 🙂 I was/am always open to actually pay for verification on X, IF it would be real verification. Not just my cc. 🙂
