This is the "instance" - a unix user account. The super user who
owns all the files and processes.
- scott
- scott is a unix account name and the name of the database.
The instance user can issue create database scott
(this takes nearly 3 minutes to complete on my superfast machine.)
The database scott seems to be owned by the unix user scott without
any further action.
- no passwords
- The system seems to rely on unix user accounts.
