to your database so that you can:
▪ Perform database management operations
▪ Execute SQL commands to query, insert, update, and delete data in your
database
• SQL Developer:
▪ Is a graphical user interface for accessing your instance of Oracle Database
▪ Supports development in both SQL and PL/SQL
▪ Is available in the default installation of Oracle Database

Changing Initialization Parameter Values
• Static parameters:
▪ Can be changed only in the parameter file
▪ Require restarting the instance before taking effect
▪ Account for about 110 parameters
• Dynamic parameters:
▪ Can be changed while database is online
▪ Can be altered at:
⁃ Session level
⁃ System level
▪ Are valid for duration of session or based on SCOPE setting
▪ Are changed by using ALTER SESSION and ALTER SYSTEM commands
▪ Account for about 234 parameters
15
Changing Parameter Values: Examples
SQL> ALTER SESSION

SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT ='mon dd yyyy';
Session altered.
SQL> SELECT SYSDATE FROM dual;
SYSDATE
-----------
jun 18 2009
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SEC_MAX_FAILED_LOGIN_ATTEMPTS=2

COMMENT='Reduce from 10 for tighter security.'
SCOPE=SPFILE;
System altered.
