Step 7: allow chroot local user in ftp

[root@ebsdev vsftpd]# pwd
/etc/vsftpd
[root@ebsdev vsftpd]# vi vsftpd.conf

Add below Bolded line

# You may specify an explicit list of local users to chroot() to their home
# directory. If chroot_local_user is YES, then this list becomes a list of
# users to NOT chroot().
#chroot_list_enable=YES
chroot_local_user=YES

step 9: Try to login with credentials in ftp and also putty terminal

You can’t login in putty but you can able to login FTP with home path which directory you configured, you can’t go other directory. you have only that directory access.

Siebel ERP Integration performance issue

Users are always complaint about siebel erp integration performance issue when they are doing push the approval data to erp r12. It will take approximately 2 to 4 minutes.

So I took the awr reports from both database  and crosschecked both with some interval, the siebel database performance is good but erp database saying there is integration related packages sql elasped time little bit more.

So i just went to siebel application and look the all components group log level ,How about ? Yes I found out there some of the components groups logging was enabled to 5, It should not be like always,  So I have decreased the default log level to 1 and clear that web service cache, and then I tried to push the transaction, it completed within 10 seconds.

And also i have disabled SOA auditing feature from ERP, Now data came within 4 seconds.

SQL> grant execute on utl_http to scott;

Grant succeeded.

Step 2:  Conn as sysdba
