Database Error Messages

OCI-42800

The specified attribute association ("namespace", "attribute") is already attached to existing VPD policies with the specified policy function "owner"."name".
  • namespace: The name of the namespace.
  • attribute: The name of the attribute.
  • owner: The policy function owner name.
  • name: The policy function name.

Cause

An attempt was made to add an attribute association which was already attached to shared context-sensitive policies with the specified Virtual Private Database (VPD) policy function. All shared context-sensitive policies with a common policy function need to have the same set of attribute associations. Attribute associations of an existing shared context-sensitive policy which is using the specified policy function will be automatically added to the new policy.


Action

Review existing VPD policy contexts in the DBA_POLICY_CONTEXTS view and retry the operation without specifying the namespace and attribute values.
