How to recover all your tabs after closing the browser (chrome)

There are two ways you can recover all your chrome tabs after you have closed your browser or shut down your computer.  (Chrome browser) (1) By saving bookmarks (bookmark all tabs) LINK KaFOFO  said: Here is just a quick explanation for how to do this using bookmarks. pauljharding I am not sure what you mean by "it's one step more" since you're basically doing the same thing if there was a button to "save session" unless you are talking about the extra step of naming your new bookmark folder. Anyway this will definitely help a lot of people who just want a solution for now until there is a "save session" option added: Step 1: have all the tabs open which you want to save. Step 2: right click one of the tabs, choose "bookmark all tabs". Step 3: choose a name for the new folder for this session, click OK. To reopen this folder just go to this bookmark folder you just created, right-click it then either choose: "Open all book

Oracle Database username rules

Image
Avoid using special characters in username with Oracle database or any of the Oracle Identity and Access Management products. Even though you can use special characters like asterisk, braces, backslash, frontslash etc, when creating a new userid in Oracle database, it is strongly discouraged to use special characters. Here is a discussion about this in   LINK https://asktom.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:595223460734 The discussion provides example where the special character may get interpreted by the shell before the sqlplus. So one needs to use the relevant escape character to protect the special character, Linux or Windows. I was able to create a user with backslash character but had to use the quotes to protect it from the shell. username with various special characters were created successfully, like *, / , \. {, [. ? etc. However bigger issue is how the userid will be treated when it is used in Oracle Access Manager, Oracle Identit

OID, mod_wl_ohs, OAM, Identity Asserter

Basic questions about OAM Identity Asserter, WebLogic Authentication in Oracle Identity and Access Management What is OAM Identity Asserter? Why is it required? >>Why OAM Identity Asserter is important for both AD and OID , what exactly it does ? OAM Identity Asserter is required so that your WebLogic server (OBIEE application is deployed on a WebLogic server) can be provided with information/token so that it can map to a valid user. This is just a short answer, but you will require this configuration during OBIEE configuration. As mentioned above OBIEE is protected by OAM. So you see the big picture. Here is  link  for details about Identity asserter. In order to enable SSO for Weblogic applications (meaning web applications that are deployed on Weblogic server), you need to add and configure OAM Authentication Provider for WebLogic Server. Here is discussion on Oracle forum on Identity Asserter. Link to Oracle Discussion OID, mod_wl_ohs, Identity Asserter   >>Ho

OIM AD password sync connector

OIM AD password sync connector is used to synchronize passwords between Active Directory (AD) and Oracle Identity Manager (OIM)/now Oracle Identity Governance (OIG). If you have multiple Domain controllers then install the password sync connector on each Domain controller. Here is the latest document on AD Password synchronization .  Good news, there is No Dependency on the Microsoft Active Directory User Management Connector.  In earlier releases, you had to install the Microsoft Active Directory User Management connector before you could start using the password synchronization connector. From this release onward (in the above URL, again here ), the password synchronization connector does not use any component of the user management connector. At the same time, password propagation from Microsoft Active Directory to Oracle Identity Manager can be configured to complement the features offered by the user management connector. What does OIM AD Password Sync Connector do? The Orac
