Configuring DG's Standby database in 10g Grid Control monitoring.

Hi.
I am facing issues to configure "for monitoring" the standby instance of a 10g database. If someone on this forum have experience, please share, will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
/SKH

FYI we have a tar open on this "standby databases not monitored correctly" ie grid is trying to collect metric from a sb db when it can not b/c its only mounted. The fix will be in 10.2.0.4. We are pushing for a back port to 10.2.0.3 b/c we missed a corruption in our sb db b/c we could not monitor the values and apply different templates.

Creating a new Oracle Database using 10G Grid Control

Hi
Is it possible to create a new database using the 10g Grid COntrol.

The way to create a database with EM, is by using Provisioning procedures. For instance with the Oracle Clusterware / RAC Provisioning For UNIX, you can provisioning Clusterware, ASM + ASM instance creation and DB Software. Then by provisoning you would create a database. There are also procedures to extend a cluster.
So, provisoning is the way to go!

OEM 10g grid control using an existing database

Hello all,
Has anyone been successful in installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid
Control (10.1.0.3) using and existing 10g (10.1.0.3) database?
10g grid control comes with 9.0.5.0 database for it repository. Since
this respository can not be update to 10.1.0.3, Oracle recommends using
and existing 10g database instead.
My installation goes 90% all the way before it fails. It fails at the
create repository point.
If any one has been successful, could you please share your success
with me.
Thanks,
Jake

Well, finally I did it! :)
The problem comes when you are trying to install OEM repository into existing 10g DB which used to be configured with a standalone Database Control. Dropping SYSMAN user is not enough!!! There are some leftovers which must be cleaned before running repository creation assistant:
drop user SYSMAN cascade;
drop user MGMT_VIEW cascade;
drop role MGMT_USER;
drop public synonym MGMT_TARGET_BLACKOUTS;
drop public synonym SETEMVIEWUSERCONTEXT;
That's all folks.

OEM Database Control and 10g Grid Control

Can any one tell the difference between OEM Database Control and OEM 10g Grid Control.

Database Control is the HTTP Management environment and comes installed with the 10g Database. It can be used to manage one database (one target) at a time (standalone). To monitor more than one database, you must create a new console on a different port for each database.
10g Grid Control is the Enterprise version in that you can monitor different Target from different operationg systems at the same time. These include Application Servers, Listeners, Operation Systems, Non Oracle Database Systems using plugins (from 10gR2).
So, for someone who was using OEM 9i, there was connection in to Standalone Console (Java) and Oracle Management Server (Java and HTML). In 10g, they are replaced with Database Control (Java and HTML versions) and Grid Control respectively.

Discoverer and 10g Grid Control

Is anyone using 10g Grid Control to do any sort of monitoring (availability monitoring, performance, etc.) of Discoverer Plus, Viewer or the Portlet Provider? Any tips or strategies?

Error - when creating a standby database with EM 10g Grid Control

Hi,
I am experiencing some problems when I want to create through the EM 10g Grid Control a standby database from a allready existing db. At step 2 when the files should be generated and copied to the other system, I am always getting the error that there isn't enough disk space on the other system. This can't be because there is at least 30GB free and the installer is asking for less than 1GB. I was searching the whole internet for a solution to this issue, but there was just nothing that could help me out with that point...
Has someone an idea at this point? Thanks for helping...
I am working on a Windows 2003 Server - Enterprise Edition for every system (Grid Control, Primary DB and Standby DB).
Best regards,
Patrick.

Check that filesystem space using GC under targets>hosts on which you are trying to create standby. Do you have any specific error message from GC ? If GC shows proper size under host filesystem section then there shuld be no such problem. Double chk ur locations too.

10g Grid Control Installation/configuration on RAC

Hi Experts,
I am new to RAC and I need your help.
I need to configure 2 node RAC and install/configure Oracle 10g Grid control (High Availability) on HP-UX Itanium servers. Is there any good document or link?
Thank You all in advance
Bell

Hi Bell,
Here is the link for the 10gR5 Grid Control Installation Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/install.102/e10953/toc.htm
Considering the GC repository is a RAC database you will be performing the "+Using an Existing Database+" installation type.
I would highlight the below part of the documentation:
To view a list of certified Oracle Database, see Document ID 412431.1 on My Oracle Support (formerly Metalink).
If you want to use a RAC database, which is configured on a virtual host, as the existing database, then refer to Document ID 561441.1 on My Oracle Support (formerly Metalink).
HTH,
Regards,
Jozsef

Logical Standby Database with 10g+ASM on both sides??

Hi out there,
is there a known way to establish a logical standby database on 10g, if both
sides are running with an ASM setup?
I've tried to create one out of a physical standby database (which is set up
and running w/o any problems), like a book suggested me to do.
The procedure was:
1. switch on supplemental logging
2. prepare initiation parameters (for archive logging etc.) on both sides for
logical stb.
3. shut down the phyiscal standby
4. alter database create logical standby controlfile as '<path>'; on the
primary, transfer the controlfile to the standby db. Here I had to use RMAN
to copy the controlfile into the ASM System, and modify the initfile/spfile
in order to use the controlfile. No problem so far.
5. mount the standby database, alter database recover managed standby database
disconnect; -> At this point, the alert log complained about non-available
datafiles.
6. alter database activate standby database; --> fails ("needs recovery") due
to last point.
The trouble is, the controlfile created at point 4 cointains wrong paths to
the datafiles. Since I can not have the same disk group name on the standby
system, and since ASM renames the stored datafiles by its own, the complaints
of point 5 are comprehensible, but nevertheless annoying.
I tried to backup a controlfile to trace and change the paths, but at after
mounting the standby with this controlfile and proceeding at point 5, the
system says "<path> is not a standby controlfile"
Is there a different way of creating a "Logical Standby Database with 10g+ASM
on both sides"? Metalink said nothing about LogStby and ASM.
Best regards and thanks in advance,
Martin

I'm not sure if this will work but try:
1. create trace control file (you did it)
2. change paths (you did it)
3. recrate control file (you did it)
... there was error occured during mount before
so mount database (not as standby)
4. create standby control file (from recreated control file)
5. shutdown instance, replace control file with new standby control file or replace the control filename in parameter file.
6. mount as standby
What happend?
Update: Tested on my side and it has worked fine... How about you?

Installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Using an Existing Database

I want to install Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control 10.2.0.3 using an existing database. This database is RAC 10.2.0.2. and I use it as Infrastructure Metadata Repository.
I is said in Oracle documentation that SYSMAN schema has to be dropped, thus Database console repository has to be dropped. As far as I understand after Grid Control installation I will not be able to use Database console for my RAC 10.2.0.2 Infrastructure Metadata Repository database. I will be able to use only Grid Control for this database.
Am I right? Could you give me any advice about Installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Using an Existing Database?
Thank you.

Alert Log File Monitoring of 8i and 9i Databases with EM Grid Control 10g

Is it possible to monitor alert log errors in Oracle 8i/9i Databases with EM Grid Control 10g and EM 10g agents? If yes, is it possible to get some kind of notification?
I know that in 10g Database, it is possible to use server generated alerts, but what about 8i/9i?
Regards,
Martin

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?

Physical Standby database Oracle 10g Standard Edition

Hello,
I open a new question about testing a standby database a because of this:
I realize that my standby database is 10g Standard and not Enterprise and not 11g.
Because for testing we plan to modify data on Standby, we are looking for some way to restore Standby to the point before testing.
So, I can't use Flashback Recovery Area for restoring my database to a certain point after testing.
In this scenario, the only way that I think is:
On Standby
- Shutdown database
- Copy by O/S all datafiles, temp files, control files and redo logs. That will be my backup before testing.
- Open database, test and modify data
- When test is finished, shutdown database
- Copy and replace by O/S all datafiles, temp files, control files and redo logs from backup place
- Open database as standby and apply all archived redo logs needed.
Would be it work without problem or should I copy other files?

it comes under Refresh of database, use --> cleanup --> restore.
If its enterprise edition , you can use procedure mentioned in this note How To Open Physical Standby For Read Write Testing and Flashback [ID 805438.1]

Upgrade PHYSICAL STANDBY database to 10g from 9i

Hello everybody,
Please can you provide me the details for Manual upgrading 9i STANDBY database to 10g. Any special parameters that we have to set on the Primary database..
Any sites with the information available would be great.
Thanks everybody for your help.

There is no in-place upgrade process to move from 9i to 10g. You have to upgrade your primary and then reinstantiate your standby (using Oracle10g). You may like to keep your 9i standby in tact until your upgrade of 9i primary to 10g is completely successful.....just to ensure that you have a fast, easy and reliable fall-back plan.
Thanks

OMS unable to reach host in 10g grid control

Greetings Gurus:
I installed oracle 10g grid control r2 and agent on a windows xp machine. on another windows xp machine i installed the agent. i am able to see the host in grid control on the machine with the grid control installed but cannot see the remote machine with only the agent installed. i have reloaded and uploaded, started and stopped the agent using emctl and opmnctl without any issues(this is on the remote machine) but still cannot see the remote host. when i try to secure the agent on the remote machine i get the following:
Requesting an HTTPS Upload URL from the OMS... Failed.
The OMS is not set up for Enterprise Manager Security.
I am fairly new at using grid control and standby database and have had a torrid time trying to fix this problem. your assistance would be greatly appreciated

*1. Stop dbconsole*
emctl stop agent
OR
emctl stop dbconsole
*2. Secure it*
emctl secure dbconsole sysman_pwd agent_reg_pwd
*3. Start dbconsole*
emctl start dbconsole
*4. After some time when the dbconsole starts check the status*
emctl status
