Converting Standalone Agents to CLuster Agents

Greetings,
I have been reading about converting STandalone Agents to Cluster Agents and again am suffering a bit of confusion. Using the Enterprise Manager 12c Upgrade Console to upgrade from 11g to 12c via the 2-System method I have deployed and configured some agents on clusters. I do not know how all of the agents on these clusters were originally installed. After deploying, when converting the 12c agents I did specify the related targets for the clusters.
My question is whether or not the agents on these clusters is indeed configured correctly for a clustered environment. This is based on the fact that some appear to behave incorrectly (status pending is one issue). Is there a way from within the 12c console (or any other way) to determine if these agents are in fact properly configured for a clustered environment? My initial hope was that they would have been but given some of the differences between 11g and 12c I would like to verify that.
I would appreciate knowing if that is possible.
Thank you.
Bill Wagman

Hi Bill,
In 12c, there are no special settings or steps for deploying agents to a cluster. You simply deploy an agent to every node of the cluster, just like you would on an individual server. Once the agent is deployed, the data collected about these nodes will be used to construct the cluster targets in EM. Unfortunately, any issues with data collections or dynamic properties or associations, etc can cause these clusters or its nodes to show incorrect status, or not be formed as complete targets.
Best to file an SR and have support look at your environment.

How to download a standalone version of CSA Agent

Hi gurus,
I know that Cisco ships the security server (CSM) with a standalone version of CSA Agent. Is there any way to download this agent without deploying CSA MC server? I need to do the internal posture validation with Ciscosecure ACS server and create a policy for the Cisco Security Agent presense
Eugene

No, there is not, installations come from the csa management center, standalone agents are part of
cisco ip telephony systems and not freely available to download.

Patch #232, CR041488 seems to address this:
GWTDOMAIN connection problem when maxfiles kernel parm set > 32K
Perhaps the Cluster Agent sets a higher ulimit when it runs.
See if you are running the latest patch.

Cluster agent for DSEE 7.0

Hi,
I see in the DSEE 7.0 released notes that the Solaris Cluster agent has been removed from the DSEE 7.0 distribution. Where can I find a cluster agent for 7.0?
Thanks.

Hi,
To access Reporting Agent or in BI 7.0 type REPORTING_AGENT
GoTo T-Code RSA1OLD -> Click Reporting Agent-> Click Print :This will show all the query and reports
Drill down to a particular Report
-> HighLight this report
-> Create New Reporting Agent Setting
-> Give name & Description
-> Check Fill OLAP Cache if possible
->Save and Activaate
->Go Back : You will see one Reporting Agent create
-> Select the newly created Reporting Agent
-> on the Right Hand side Column
->Create New Scheduling Package by clicking on Create Button
-> Give name and Description
->Save
Now Drag the Reporting Agent to the right Hand side the Scheduling Package Windows.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/28/734d3caa70ea6fe10000000a114084/content.htm
But, I would suggest to use Information broadcasting instead of Reporting agent.
hope this helps...

12.1.0.3 Agent Upgrade shows agent Not Upgradable with Oracle Home Property Missing

I have completed upgrading my Enterprise Manager OMS from 12.1.0.1 to 12.1.0.3 and am not in the process of upgrading the agents. Several agents show agent as not upgradable with error Oracle Home Property Missing and I am having problems trying to resolve that. In addition to the information in Chapter 5 of the upgrade guide I have found Metalink notes 1564380.1 & 1576084.1 and am trying to follow them.
Looking at the targets.xml on one machine I find -
<Target TYPE="oracle_home" NAME="cannon-columbo_cluster_home" IDENTIFIER="TARGET_GUID=615AE33355A4D531DBFC35831C2A2952">

and following the notes I use emctl and run runCollection -
./emctl control agent runCollection mothpa.ucdavis.edu_mothpa1_oracle_database_home:oracle_home oracle_home_config
But the console still shows Oracle Home Property Missing. emctl listtargets shows -

I have found some information pertaining to promoting targets but I don't understand that very well, essentially how to know if a target needs to be promoted. One note suggested running repvfy which I need to do. I will download it and run it to see if that helps but at the moment I am puzzled and seeking assistance. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated.
Thank you.

I will do so, thank you.

How to route the workitem to Agent, when no agent found

1.when agent is not found, i was able to see the workitem in swi2_freq.
If this is case, how do i send workitem to an agent?
2. As this is a general task, but i didn't see this workitem in all user's inbox. is it true that if agent not found for a workitem,will be sent to all agents?
3. I set my userid as workflow administrator, but still am not able to forward workitems to any user in sap.(lack of authorizations). What kind of authorizations required to forward a workitem.
Any inputs on this...

1. Either you can set default agents for the task (or) modify the container elements in transaction SWIA (or) complete it manually without agent.
2. Its true that, for a task specified as general task, all users become possible agents. Remember that they dont become responsible agents. SAP agent assignment always take the intersection of possible and responsible agents. If you donts specify responsible agents, you cannot see workitem in anyone's inbox.
3. As told earlier, if you dont have authorization, check for the auth object in SU53 and get that added to your profile. Anyways, you can also check for the SAP provided standard authorizations for the workflow users in sap.com
regards,
Sandeep Josyula

Agent Desktop's agent state toggles between "ready" and "reserved

Hello and thanks for all of your past help. I have a user whos'e Agent Desktop's agent state toggles between "ready" and "reserved when no calls are coming in to he IP Phone 7941 or 7961. Can anyone help?
Thanks, Chet

Is the agent's phone actually ringing at all? If not I suspect the IP IVR ports are unable to call the agent. UCCX tries to send a call to the agent so it sends the reserve event to the agent and then tries to send the call to the agent but is failing so it cancels the event flicking the agent back into ready. Perhaps check to make sure that the ports have an appropriate calling search space to call the agent extension. Maybe configure a phone the same as the IVR port and check to see if you can call the agent extension?
Cheers,
Nathan

Error from Cisco Agent Desktop - The agent- or workflow-initiated action request failed.

How to Convert standalone .OVF\VMDK file to VHD, without having a VMWare server. We have a .OVF file on USB drive

How do I Convert standalone .OVF\VMDK file to VHD, without having a VMWare server. We have an .OVF file on USB drive. Running Hyper V 2012 SP1 and need to convert this to run on our system. Basically a vender of ours has decided
not to house our servers that they used to support one of our environments. They used VMware and we are a Hyper V shop. Now they are sending it back in an OVF format and telling us to convert it to VHD. Only tool I found was Microsoft converter
tool and you need a VMware server to do that. The exporter tool is another but doesn't actually do any conversion. Can anyone help?
Thanks
Eric

If the Java application must be stand-alone you must not deploy it on WebLogic, then WebLogic will manage its lifecycle.
In this case you can use the CommonJ API and use the timermanager if it must run on a certain time. More information
of how to do this can be found here: http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=5569
If you keep the Java application stand-only and want to use a cron job you can follow the example presented here: http://middlewaremagic.com/weblogic/?p=7065
Note that the example runs a WLST script, but you can follow the same steps to run your Java application.

Log Reader Agent and Snapshot Agent wont start

Hi There,
I've two SQL 2012 servers with multiple instances installed.
I've started replicating the databases in these instances using transactional replication and thus far they've worked without a hitch.
One of my instances, annoyingly, has an issue where the Log Reader Agent and Snapshot Agent refuse to start, and I've followed exactly the same process as with the other instances\databases.
The Agents are configured to make use of a domain user account with sysadmin permissions to the instances on both servers.
I get the following two error when I View Log Reader Agent Status:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sa. The last step to run was step 2 (Run agent.).
I've asked the agent to run as my DOMAIN\sqlservice account, so I've no idea why it's moaning about sa?!!?
I get the following error when I View Snapshot Agent Status:
The replication agent has not logged a progress message in 10 minutes. This might indicate an unresponsive agent or high system activity. Verify that records are being replicated to the destination and that connections to the Subscriber, Publisher, and Di
If I try to start either agent I'm told that the request to run job was refused because the job has been suspended, "Changed database context"?? Error 22022.
Can anyone help?

This is because your job owner is sa. Right click on your job and notice the owner - but is should be sa.
You likely have another issue. You may need to run the job and configure it for logging to see what the error is.

On transfer agent 1 to agent 2 employee responsible on support ticket is..

hiee,
On call transfer from agent 1 to agent 2 employee responsible on support ticket is getting defaulted to Agent 1.
Calls that are transferred from Sales end up having the sales rep listed as the Employee Responsible in the Support Ticket. This makes the tickets "fall off the radar" because the Responsible Employee's Team is incorrectly determined to be the Sales Rep's Team or no team, instead of the Support Rep's team.
how to update the employee responsible in the support ticket from agent 1 to agent 2??

Are you saying the notes are incorrect?
No, I wasn't commenting on that at all. I was just saying that DBUA is the recommended way of upgrading databases... and that's in spades if you're talking about 100GB databases.
I'll lay odds that DBUA to 10.2.0.1 and then patching to 10.2.0.3 is quicker than exporting and importing 100GB of data.
(Applying a 10.2.0.3 patch is done with opatch and doesn't require a fresh installation of Oracle. A patch mostly just modifies the data dictionary: it's finished in minutes, not hours).
My real point: these sorts of questions are incredibly easy to ask, answer, discard, re-ask, modify, mull over and basically experiment with in a virtual environment.
And again: it's utterly bizarre why you wouldn't have physical access to this database (and keep in mind that I can't keep in mind little nuggets of information such as this one which you didn't see fit to share earlier!)
It's in a virtual server. Virtual servers can be zipped up and emailed! (OK, maybe not 100GB... but I've shipped a small hard disk in a zip-lok pack envelope half way round the world before now -though obviously it wasn't critical to have the contents of that envelope available for use all the time... Still, it sounds to me like here's a technology (virtualisation) that's not being properly exploited).

CSA agent and NAC agent together

Hi, do you have experience of CSA agent and NAC agent together on the same pc ?
Does one include the other ?
Which one have I to test first ?
thank you in advance

Cisco Trust Agent collects security posture information from the NAC-compliant applications running on the network client and reports them to the Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS). These are some NAC-compliant applications:
- Antivirus applications
- Personal firewalls
- Host-based intrusion protection applications, such as Cisco Security Agent (CSA)
Cisco NAC is a strategic element of the Self-Defending Network. Working together with other Self-Defending Network components such as Cisco Security Agent and the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (Cisco Security MARS), Cisco NAC helps organizations achieve more accurate threat identification and prevention while increasing patch management efficiency.
