2.3.14 Ensure 'RESOURCE_LIMIT' Is Set To 'TRUE'

Information

RESOURCE_LIMIT determines whether resource limits are enforced in database profiles. This setting should have a value of TRUE.

If RESOURCE_LIMIT is set to FALSE, none of the system resource limits that are set in any database profiles are enforced. If RESOURCE_LIMIT is set to TRUE, the limits set in database profiles are enforced.

Solution

To remediate this setting, execute the following SQL statement.

ALTER SYSTEM SET RESOURCE_LIMIT = TRUE SCOPE = BOTH;
