About grid control

can we have a standby database with oracle grid control.i mean i want to have grid control + physical standby for my database(data guard)
i just know grid provides data guard facility.kindly explain how does it provide this functionality in grid.
if there is disaster can i have a physical standby
also please tell me does sap application support grid control

Hi,
can we have a standby database with oracle grid control.i mean i want to have grid control + physical standby for my database(data guard)Question not clear. You can have a primary database, then you can have a standby database and then you can have grid control (on a separate server) to monitor both your primary and standby.
i just know grid provides data guard facility.kindly explain how does it provide this functionality in grid.No, grid does not provide data guard facility. You can use OEM grid to create and manage your dataguard environment, but it does not provide this facility at its own. OEM grid is an administration/management and monitoring toll for Oracle environment.
if there is disaster can i have a physical standby Your create a physical standby and then make it primary in case of any disaster.
also please tell me does sap application support grid controlYou may find your answer in the following thread.

Security concern about grid control agent

I am planning for grid control rollout. Our system administrator is concerned about
security of grid control agent. For example, I do not know the Oracle password,
I sudo to Oracle after login as myself.
What are the options do I have ? I have told my system admin that
other companies use "oracle" - the database sysdba/software owner as agent owner.
But my system admin think this is a big security risk since he has to tell me the
oracle password

In more explicit terms, what is the security concern you have?
Specifically, I do not see what you mean by the sentence:
when I install grid control agent as "oracle", I provide "oracle "password in order
to run job on our unix server.By "oracle" are you referring to the Oracle Software owner account, by which the Database and/or EM software was installed?
Please explain how the job is related to installation of management agent. If you are talking about running jobs after installation, when agent is configured and running, where and how exaclty are you required to enter "oracle" password?

Question about Grid Control Agents on a Veritas Cluster (or any cluster)

Hi, I'm seeking advice on how to setup Grid Control agents on a Veritas Cluster.
My cluster is made up of two Sun M4000 servers running Solaris 10 x64 (node1 and node2), and 8 virtual hosts setup to fail between the nodes. Each of these virtual hosts has several mount points from a SAN, and contain Oracle 9 and 10 homes as well as databases. The versions are 9.2.0.8 and 10.2.0.3.
I have a full grid control agent install on each node to mount points that don't fail over to the other nodes. These agents monitor the nodes themselves.
Now for my question, is it better to do full intalls of the grid agent in each virtual host or to use the "emctl deploy agent" from the full installs already on node1 and node2 to the virtual hosts? Or is there some other, better way to do this.
Either method results in 9 grid control agents on a node if all the virtual hosts are on that box. I've experimented with both agent deploys and installs a bit and found that the cpu usage goes though the roof with that many agents on one server. Maybe I don't have them configured correctly, but every now and then they spike cpu usage to 100%, and these servers have 8, dual core processors in them with 32GB of RAM.
Thanks for any tips!
Currently, my setup looks something like this, if it helps:
ORANODE1...........................................ORANODE2
user: oracle..........................................user: oracle
full agent install....................................full agent install
VirtualHost1
user: ora_user1
Oracle 10G Home
repository database

user: ora_user2
Oracle 9i Home

Will the agent 10.2.0.3 work with Grid Control 10.2.0.1
Yes.

Question about Grid Control Installation

Hello,
I have two instances of 12i VISION apps with rdbms database 11i running on two different linux systems. I wanted to install 11g grid control to get familiar with the utility.
Do I need to do the install on one of these linux machines or can I install it on a windows client?
I need some help please.

Hello,
I would suggest install grid control on separate server from rdbms, apps or even client machine
Cheers

Grid control with combo cell

control/oracleSpreadTable with combo list instead of text cell.
Please help!!

As curious as I always am, I was able to discover my XE database from the GC 10.1.0.4 last month. I did this because I asked myself the same question. When there is time, I normally will try everything that says "Not supported" or "Not compartible" to prove it right or wrong. So give it a go, but don't post errors from it here :-). I have not tried it for GC 10.2.0.2, but it worked on 10.1.0.4 (hopefully 10.1.0.3).
Remember, XE has all the features of EE, but a cutdown version. It has an Oracle Service and a Listener on a port, so the agent will pick them up. I have tried all possible things and tools (Forms, Reports, Designer Repository, Jdeveloper, SQL Developer, ODBC, JDBC etc) on XE to break it, but it works like EE. The only difference is when you hit the max allowed 4GB (excluding 1GB system) and I proved the limit right by kicking of a data load into a table using a cursor until it hit the maximum 4GB limit error.

A question about Manage Observer by Grid Control

Hello everybody
My Enviroment:
Primary Database:
Single Instance 11.1.0.7
S.O.: SLES 10 SP2 x86_64
Standby Database:
Single Instance
S.O.: SLES 10 SP2 x86_64
Observer:
Oracle Client Administrator 11gR1 x86_64
S.O.: SLES 10 SP2 x86_64
Reading Oracle Documentation, I found at Oracle Data Guard Documentation that I have to install the full Oracle Database 10g software kit to manage observer by Enterprise Manager.
My question is I have to install Oracle Database 10g Software to manage observer by Oracle Grid Control 11g??
Thanks a lot

user12100209 wrote:
Thanks CKPT for awnsering.
Yes I know that I have to deploy Observer at diferent server.
So I don't have to install Oracle Database Software to manage Observer by Grid Control 11g. That 's was looking for.
Thanks a lot.May be here small confusion. I mean to say of course you have to install ORACLE_HOME(client) but no need to install/push from GRID.
You can perform installation at system level instead from GRID. Hope this clears.

I can See under Report->Storage->Oracle Database Tablespace Monthly Space Usage
But this is only for once database and I want to include all the database in single report that too with limited INfo
Want the format something like..just wanted to make you guys
Database Actual Size on 1st Actual Size on 30th INcrease in Size
1.
2.
Something close to above format will do...
Thanx

Hi Thanx for the reply
But Which Tablespace Metric You are talking about?I can See 5-6 Tablespace Metric and infact I dont want the data at the tablespace level and I want the total size of the database and growth in last month as shown in ' Oracle Database Tablespace Monthly Space Usage '.

Listener & grid control after upgrade to 11.1.0.7

going from 10.2.0.2 to 11.1.0.7 on aix 5.3
On our test server we have about 8 databases that are all currently using the 10.2 listener. I've upgraded one of our very basic test databases to 11g this morning, and for the time being just created a new listener11g that listens to different port. when I start it, the log file is being created in ORACLE_BASE/diag/tnslsnr/<server>/<lsnrname>/alert/ instead of the default ORACLE_HOME/network/logs I didn't tell it to create the listener log there, anyone else have this issue?
Also, my databases are all currently being monitored by OEM Grid Control and NOT DB Control. What steps should I take to get that running correctly again after the upgrade? Delete the target database and add it back after the upgrade? Sorry ahead of time if there is a meta-link doc for this, I've searched briefly and came up empty handed.
Thanks,
Ben Alvey

well, from what I read about the ADR architecture it wasn't clear that the listener log would move. the metalink documents for the listener log still state that the default log directory is ORACLE_HOME/network/log as well.
And seeing how I supplied a different value for diagnostic_dest during the upgrade of said database it didn't make much sense to me how it came to the decision to stick it where it did. I'd say it is using the value from $ORACLE_BASE during the install.
It would be helpful if their docs didn't contradict themselves constantly.

Problem in deleting backup job in Grid Control

Hi,
The topology and versions are as follows:
1 windows 2003 server with Oracle Grid Control 10.2.0.4.0.
1 windows 2003 server with Oracle Databases 10.2.0.3.
1 windows 2003 server with Oracle Databases 10.2.0.3 - Data Guard setup
I have tried to stop (and delete) some scheduled fullbackup jobs from Grid Control.
The job has now status SUSPEND. I have tried to stop and delete the job, but I get the message:
All executions of the job were stopped successfully. Currently running steps will not be stopped.
I cannot delete the job and the job is not running.
I have run this procedure in order to delete the job:
DECLARE
jguid RAW;
BEGIN
SELECT job_id
INTO jguid
FROM mgmt_job
WHERE job_name = '<name of your job>'
AND job_owner = '<owner of your job>';
mgmt_job_engine.stop_all_executions_with_id(jguid,TRUE);
COMMIT;
END;
With no effect. The job is still shown in Grid Control with status SUSPEND.
I have restarted all servers and all the components in Grid Control, but the jobs will not disappear from Grid Control although they have been deleted.
I am struggling with this for about 2 days now.
I have search in Metalink and the internet, but I have not found anything that provides a solution.
Any help will be very much appreciated.

SSO and EUS with EM Grid Control

Trying to configure both SSO using client certificate authentication process and Enterprise Users, I noted that the parameter used to configure both is the same (oracle.sysman.emSDK.sec.DirectoryAuthenticationType) in emons.properties.
Can I use both SSO and EUS with EM Grid Control???

Hello
i am interested in a very special feature: is it possible to get notified if alerts occur in alert logs in an 8i/9i database when using Grid control and the 10g agent on the 8i/9i systems?
Moreover, the 10g agent should be able to get Performance Data using the v$ views or direct sga access without using statspack, right?
Do you know where I can find documentation about the supported features when using Grid Control with 8i/9i databases?
