MoidIITDocID-502: How to create a password file? --Moid

$ orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw$ORACLE_SID password='abc123' ignorecase=Y entries=5 force=y


Starting from 19c, atleast 8 bytes are required for SYS password.

orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw$ORACLE_SID password='abc123'  force=y
OPW-00029: Password complexity failed for SYS user : Password must contain at least 8 characters.

Solution is to add "format=12". See below:
orapwd file=$ORACLE_HOME/dbs/orapw$ORACLE_SID password='abc123'  force=y  format=12
