Post-installation considerations for EM

• Architecture effects

• Configuring for Action (Software library, MOS access)

• Target Lifecycle Management – provisioning, patching

• Target Monitoring – metrics, incidents, notification

• Target Management – jobs, operation

• Packs – license management and use

Existing post-installation EM resources

New post-configuration EM resources

Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Architecture

Comparing post-installation EM with post-configuration EM (single instance)


8/26


EM Implementation Path

• Fast, space-efficient installation requires only a database

• Database repository templates are available• EM 12c installation results in one host under self-monitor

• Agent deployment extends the enterprise monitoring scope

• Plugins extend the agent target scope


9/26


Simple Installation

Installation results in this view of a minimal (one agent/host + resident targets) ente

Note that the repository database is on a remote host and is not yet represented


10/26


EM Configuration for Operation

• Software Library – establishes provisioning capability

• Provide MOS credentials

– MOS is accessible from the console (Incident Manager, SWB)

– Self Update downloads a new catalog daily

– Offline options

• Configure Self Update

• http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/install.121/e22624/getting_started.htm#CIHIEDAI

demonstration: 01_setup (1:49, see Note 1586842.1)

Target Life Cycle Management

• Software Provisioning

• Agent deployment• Oracle Home cloning

• Plugin deployment

• Patch deployment

12/26



Software Provisioning:

• Agent is representative of other software types (patch, plugin, prod

is needed for monitoring expansion

• Software download and deployment are managed through EM

demonstrations: 04_agent_download (2:06, see Note 1586842.1), 05_agent_deploy_b (2:06, see Note 1586842.1)


13/26



A word about plugins

• The agent installs with some default discovery plugins (DB, FMW)

• As targets are added, the monitoring plugins are automatically

downloaded and installed at the target host agent location

• As new versions of plugins are made available, the user can down

and apply the new plugins to existing targets

• Plugin Manager allows the user to see what plugins have been de

and manage the distribution of new plugins as they become avail

• New information about plugins comes from the Self Update catalo

downloaded daily

demonstration: 06_tgtdiscovery_b (3:09, see Note 1586842.1)


14/26



Target patching:

• Helpful approach to routine SPU/PSU patching

• Download and deployment are managed through EM

• Agents can also be patched, OMS and repository database cannot,

console

demonstration: 08_patchdeploy (4:19, see Note 1586842.1)


15/26


Target Monitoring - Metrics

• Numerous metrics are functional out of the box

• The EM Summary page and each target page show tabulated metri

and graphs

• A large number of metrics are collected and many have default trig

levels set for warning and critical thresholds

• Threshold levels can be set or modified on individual metrics

• The Monitoring Template allows the user to define a non-default se

thresholds customized to the environment• Metrics form the measurements behind Events

• http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/part1.htm#sthref4

demonstration: 09_metrics (3:29, see Note 1586842.1)

http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/part1.htmhttp://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/part1.htm


16/26


Target Monitoring - Metrics

• Events are alerts of a triggering condition (metric)

• One or more events or can be defined as incidents for managemen

• Notification methods can extend beyond the console alert

• Email notification requires these steps:

• Configure for outgoing mail server

• Enter administrator email

• Provide notification schedule

• Associate notification with a Rule

demonstrations: 10_events (3:33, see Note 1586842.1), 11_notifications (6:22, see Note 1586842.1)


17/26


Target Management - Jobs

• Job system is the basis of actions through EM

• Many jobs have been run in the process of post-installation config

(agent download, apply and deploy)

• The user can define jobs to run commands on the OS, RMAN opera

and SQL scripts, amongst others

• Job status changes can be defined as events in order to allow conv

notification by defining the Job Event

• http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24628_01/doc.121/e24473/jobs.htm#CHDDGHAC

demonstration: 12_jobs (3:33, see Note 1586842.1)


18/26


Target Management - Credentials

• Stored credentials allow for easy access to the enterprise compone

hosts and databases

• Types of credentials used for automatic target access

Named credentials (access by name in EM’s LOVs)

Preferred credentials (stored by target)

Overriding credentials (allowed in job setup)

• Privilege delegation

demonstration: 13_creds (2:35, see Note 1586842.1)


19/26


Target Management - Target Control

• Remote target process stop and start

• Already observed in the events discussion


20/26


Management Packs

• EM is free

• Many Management Packs are licensed• See Oracle® Enterprise Manager Licensing Information

Oracle® Enterprise Manager Licensing Information

SummaryWhat we covered today

Post install configuration actions have been demonstrated

Key basic features (jobs, events, deployments, etc.) have bee

demonstrated

The user should now be able to investigate more complex

features
