Oracle discovery using Kerberos and Oracle CMU

Good day experts,

 

We have Oracle databases running on both Windows and Linux servers. Currently, we use local database accounts for authentication and discovery of Oracle instances, and some Oracle instances are discovered through OS-level discovery.

We are evaluating whether Kerberos authentication or Oracle Centrally Managed Users (CMU) can be leveraged as alternative authentication methods for Oracle database discovery on both Windows and Linux platforms.

We would appreciate any guidance, recommendations, or experiences regarding the feasibility, prerequisites, limitations, and best practices for using Kerberos or Oracle CMU in support of Oracle discovery.

Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.
