This is an easy one, but really helpful when you are on a server with a few DB’s and you want the visual piece of mind you are not doing something on the wrong database.
Add the following line on file $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/glogin.sql
SET SQLPROMPT "_USER'/'_CONNECT_IDENTIFIER> "
That’s it, now try to access DB:
[oracle@server ~]$ sqlplus / as sysdba
