Can you grant privileges to an oracle cluster object?

Question

I'm trying to allow an oracle user (userA) privileges to create a table on a cluster in another user's schema (userB). I can't find the relevant privilege to grant, and granting ALL PRIVILEGES on the cluster to userA complains that the table or view doesn't exist. Is what I'm trying to do possible? I also notice there isn't an ALL_CLU_COLUMNS dictionary table; is this related?

Answer 1

userA has to have the CREATE ANY TABLE privilege. Be sure to qualify the userB schema for both the table and cluster object references.

So, using the emp/dept example from Oracle's docs:

userB: CREATE CLUSTER emp_dept (deptno NUMBER(3));

userA: CREATE TABLE userB.dept ( deptno NUMBER(3) ) CLUSTER userB.emp_dept (deptno);
