About Sharing Wallets and sqlnet.ora Files Among Multiple Databases
Multiple nonreplicated databases cannot share wallets.
If sqlnet.ora
files contain wallet ___location information, then databases also cannot share sqlnet.ora
files.
The only exception to this rule is password-authenticated or Kerberos-authenticated enterprise user security with default database-to-directory connection configuration that uses passwords. This configuration keeps database wallets in the default ___location, where Database Configuration Assistant creates them. In this situation, no wallet ___location information is stored in the sqlnet.ora
file, and the wallet can be shared among multiple databases.
Note:
If SSL is used for enterprise user authentication, then the wallet ___location must be specified in the sqlnet.ora
file. So, sqlnet.ora
files cannot be shared by multiple databases for SSL-authenticated enterprise users.
