# Oracle Database Secrets Engine
|
|
|
|
Oracle is one of the supported plugins for the database secrets engine. This
|
|
plugin generates database credentials dynamically based on configured roles for
|
|
the Oracle database and also supports [Static Roles](/docs/secrets/databases#static-roles).

the Oracle database and also supports [Static Roles](/docs/secrets/databases#static-roles).
|
|
|
|
~> The Oracle database plugin is not bundled in the core Vault code tree and can be
|
|
found at its own git repository here:
|
|
[hashicorp/vault-plugin-database-oracle](https://github.com/hashicorp/vault-plugin-database-oracle)
|
|
|
|
See the [Database Backend](/docs/secrets/databases) docs for more
|
|
information about setting up the Database Backend.
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
The Oracle Database Plugin does not live in the core Vault code tree and can be found
|
|
at its own git repository here: [hashicorp/vault-plugin-database-oracle](https://github.com/hashicorp/vault-plugin-database-oracle)
|
|
|
|
For linux/amd64, pre-built binaries can be found at [the releases page](https://releases.hashicorp.com/vault-plugin-database-oracle)
|
|
|
|
Before running the plugin you will need to have the the Oracle Instant Client
|
|
library installed. These can be downloaded from Oracle. The libraries will need to
|
|
be placed in the default library search path or defined in the ld.so.conf configuration files.
|
|
|
|
If you are running Vault with [mlock enabled](/docs/configuration#disable_mlock),
|
|
you will need to enable ipc_lock capabilities for the plugin binary.
|
|
|
|
1. Enable the database secrets engine if it is not already enabled:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
$ vault secrets enable database
|
|
Success! Enabled the database secrets engine at: database/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default, the secrets engine will enable at the name of the engine. To
|
|
enable the secrets engine at a different path, use the `-path` argument.
|
|
|
|
1. Download and register the plugin:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
$ vault write sys/plugins/catalog/database/oracle-database-plugin \
|
|
sha256="..." \
|
|
command=vault-plugin-database-oracle
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Configure Vault with the proper plugin and connection information:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
$ vault write database/config/my-oracle-database \
|
|
plugin_name=oracle-database-plugin \
|
|
connection_url="system/Oracle@localhost:1521/OraDoc.localhost" \
|
|
allowed_roles="my-role"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
1. Configure a role that maps a name in Vault to an SQL statement to execute to
|
|
create the database credential:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
$ vault write database/roles/my-role \
|
|
db_name=my-oracle-database \
|
|
creation_statements="CREATE USER {{name}} IDENTIFIED BY {{password}}; GRANT CONNECT TO {{name}}; GRANT CREATE SESSION TO {{name}};" \
|
|
default_ttl="1h" \
|
|
max_ttl="24h"
|
|
Success! Data written to: database/roles/my-role
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
After the secrets engine is configured and a user/machine has a Vault token with
|
|
the proper permission, it can generate credentials.
|
|
|
|
1. Generate a new credential by reading from the `/creds` endpoint with the name
|
|
of the role:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
$ vault read database/creds/my-role
|
|
Key Value
|
|
--- -----
|
|
lease_id database/creds/my-role/2f6a614c-4aa2-7b19-24b9-ad944a8d4de6
|
|
lease_duration 1h
|
|
lease_renewable true
|
|
password 8cab931c-d62e-a73d-60d3-5ee85139cd66
|
|
username v-root-e2978cd0-
|
|
```
|
|
