Error in OMS configuration when Installing 10g Grid Control

Question

Hi All,
I am installing Enterprise manager Grid control 10g for Rac. This is failing on OMS configuration.I check log file and found following error under OracleHomes/oms10g/sysman/log/emca_repos_drop12_29_46:
Could not connect to SYS/(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=bomlsr01)(PORT=1541)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=APPSUPG))): ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor (DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach)
As I am installing this on RAC I passed service name (DB name) value not SID.
Could anyone please tell where I am doing wrong?
Thanks

OK, but when looking at the error message
Could not connect to SYS/(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=bomlsr01)(PORT=1541)))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=APPSUPG))): ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor
(DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach)
and comparing it with the result of the tnsping
(DESCRIPTION= (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=bomlsr01.firstassist.org.uk)(PORT=1541)) (CONNECT_DATA= (SERVICE_NAME=APPSUPG)
(INSTANCE_NAME=RAC1)))
I see two differences:
=> SID=APPSUPG / SERVICE_NAME=APPSUPG
=> HOST=bomlsr01 / HOST=bomlsr01.firstassist.org.uk
The harder part now is to figure out what needs to be done to fix your issue. I would suggest to take a look at the documentation (installing
GC on RAC)
