GATHER_SYSTEM_STATISTICS To update the dictionary system statistics a user must have DBA privileges or the GATHER_SYSTEM_STATISTICS role. GLOBAL_AQ_USER_ROLE Required to register through LDAP using JDBC connection parameters as this requires the ability to write access to the connection factory entries in the LDAP server (which requires the LDAP user to be either the database itself or be granted GLOBAL_AQ_USER_ROLE). HS_ADMIN_ROLE Provides privileges for DBAs who need to use the DBA role using Oracle Database Heterogeneous Services to access appropriate tables in the data dictionary. Used to protect access to the Heterogeneous Services (HS) data dictionary tables (grants SELECT) and packages (grants EXECUTE). It is granted to SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE and EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE such that users with generic data dictionary access also can access the HS data dictionary. IMP_FULL_DATABASE Provides the privileges required to perform full database imports. Includes an extensive list of system privileges (use view DBA_SYS_PRIVS to view privileges) and the following roles: EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE and SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE. This role is provided for convenience in using the export and import utilities. JAVADEBUGPRIV Grants permissions to run the Java debugger JAVAIDPRIV Undocumented JAVASYSPRIV Grants permissions for Java administrators including updating JVM-protected packages JAVAUSERPRIV Grants permissions for Java users such as examining properties JAVA_ADMIN Java administration privileges including permission to modify PolicyTable.

The procedure dbms_java.start_jmx_agent starts the agent in a specific session that generally remains active for the duration of the session. LOGSTDBY_ADMINISTRATOR A prototype role created by default with RESOURCE, and EXECUTE on DBMS_LOGSTDBY privileges. It is advisable to not use this role but rather to craft your own specific to your needs. Read Oracle's comments, in red with respect to RESOURCE. They apply here too. MGMT_USER Undocumented OEM_ADVISOR Required to run the Segment Advisor manually with Enterprise Manager. OEM_MONITOR Undocumented OLAPI_TRACE_USER Undocumented OLAP_DBA To create dimensional objects in any schema OLAP_USER Create dimensional objects OLAP_XS_ADMIN Administer OLAP data security ORDADMIN After installing Oracle Multimedia DICOM, the ORDADMIN role is created, with the database system privileges required for administration of the DICOM data model repository. The ORDADMIN role must be assigned to the administrator of the DICOM data model repository. OWB$CLIENT Privileges granted to PUBLIC are available to all sessions. OWB_DESIGNCENTER_VIEW Undocumented OWB_USER With Oracle Warehouse builder enables a remote Oracle WorkFlow instance to connect to the services provided by the Control Center. PLUSTRACE Traditionally required to use AUTOTRACE but in 11gR1 it seems to function without this role being required. PUBLIC - RECOVERY_CATALOG_OWNER Provides privileges for owner of the recovery catalog. Includes: CREATE SESSION, ALTER SESSION, CREATE SYNONYM, CREATE VIEW, CREATE DATABASE LINK, CREATE TABLE, CREATE CLUSTER, CREATE SEQUENCE, CREATE TRIGGER, and CREATE PROCEDURE RESOURCE Provides the following system privileges: CREATE CLUSTER, CREATE INDEXTYPE, CREATE OPERATOR, CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE SEQUENCE, CREATE TABLE, CREATE TRIGGER, CREATE TYPE. This role is provided for compatibility with previous releases of Oracle Database. You can determine the privileges encompassed by this role by querying the DBA_SYS_PRIVS data dictionary view. Note: Oracle recommends that you design your own roles for database security rather than relying on this role. This role may not be created automatically by future releases of Oracle Database. SCHEDULER_ADMIN Allows the grantee to execute the procedures of the DBMS_SCHEDULER package. It includes all of the job scheduler system privileges and is included in the DBA role. SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE Provides SELECT privilege on objects in the data dictionary. Also provides the HS_ADMIN_ROLE privilege. SPATIAL_CSW_ADMIN Privileges granted the Catalog Services for the Web (CSW) account used by the Oracle Spatial CSW cache manager to load all record type metadata, and record instances from the database into the main memory for the record types that are cached. SPATIAL_WFS_ADMIN Privileges granted the Web Feature Service (WFS) account used by the Oracle Spatial WFS cache manager to load all feature type metadata, and feature instances from the database into main memory for the feature types that are cached. WFS_USR_ROLE Privileges granted a Web Feature Service (WFS) user WKUSER Privileges that must be granted to database users hosting new Oracle Ultra Search instances. WM_ADMIN_ROLE Contains all Workspace Manager privileges with the grant option. By default, the database administrator (DBA role) is granted the WM_ADMIN_ROLE role. XDBADMIN Allows the grantee to register an XML schema globally, as opposed to registering it for use or access only by its owner. It also lets the grantee bypass access control list (ACL) checks when accessing Oracle XML DB Repository. XDB_SET_INVOKER Allows the grantee to define invoker's rights handlers and to create or update the resource configuration for XML repository triggers. By default, Oracle Database grants this role to the DBA role but not to the XDBADMIN role. XDB_WEBSERVICES Allows the grantee to access Oracle Database Web services over HTTPS. However, it does not provide the user access to objects in the database that are public. To allow public access, you need to grant the user the XDB_WEBSERVICES_WITH_PUBLIC role. For a user to use these Web services, SYS must enable the Web service servlets. XDB_WEBSERVICES_OVER_HTTP Allows the grantee to access Oracle Database Web services over HTTP. However, it does not provide the user access to objects in the database that are public. To allow public access, you need to grant the user the XDB_WEBSERVICES_WITH_PUBLIC role. XDB_WEBSERVICES_WITH_PUBLIC Allows the grantee access to public objects through Oracle Database Web services. Roles are treated like users in the data dictionary SELECT name USER_NAMES FROM user$ WHERE type# = 1; SELECT name ROLE_NAMES FROM user$ WHERE type# = 0; Controlling The Number Of Roles With An init.ora Parameter max_enabled_roles = <integer> max_enabled_roles = 100 NOTE: Roles can contain system privileges Roles can contain object privileges Roles can contain roles Object privileges granted through roles do not work within procedures, functions, and packages. Those permissions must be granted explicitly to the user.
