Database componentes required/excluded for RMAN and Grid control repository

I'm planning creation of a centralized 10gR2 RMAN repository for my production/dev environment, and needed a basic, barebones database. We may also use that same database as a repository for 10g OEM Grid Control in the future, so I wanted to ensure I was prepared for that.
None of the documentation says anything about particular required components for RMAN, only that a database is needed. So am I allowed to deselect all items from the following DBCA list? I didn't expect any problems with the optional components, but wanted to make sure that RMAN or Grid control would function, were I to disable Oracle JVM or XML DB. My standard loadout (for better or worse) is to include everything in my production/dev databases, and I didn't want that to be the case with this one.
Database Components:
Oracle Data Mining
Oracle Text
Oracle OLAP
Oracle Spatial
Enterprise Manager Repository
Standard Database Components:
Oracle JVM
Oracle XML DB
Oracle Intermedia

Thanks. For that matter, do DBA's in the general population install those standard oracle components? I have them there in my default installs just because of the message 'Oracle recommends you have these installed.' in the DBCA screen.

Database limits for Grid control repository?

Document "Oracle® Database Licensing Information / 10g Release 2 (10.2)" [Part Number B14199-10] discusses the restricted use license of database for grid control repository and rman repository use.
nfrastructure Repository Databases A separate Oracle Database can be installed and used as a Recovery Manager (RMAN) repository without additional license requirements, provided that all the Oracle databases managed in this repository are correctly licensed. This repository database may also be used for the Oracle Enterprise Grid Control repository. It may not be used or deployed for other uses.
A separate Oracle Database can be installed and used as a Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control (OEM Grid Control) repository without additional license requirements, provided that all the targets (databases, applications, and so forth) managed in this repository are correctly licensed. This database may also be used for the RMAN repository. It may not be used or deployed for other uses.
There is no discussion of licensing requirements for options of the database (RAC, partitioning, etc) when the database stays within these repository use restrictions. Therefore it is unclear whether the Grid Control can be configured to provide appropriate monitoring without additional licenses.

This is the reply I received from release
management:
If they have deployed an EE edition of the database
as an OEM repository, and then want to protect that
with RAC or Data Guard, or make more Secure with ASO
or Database Vault, or indeed get any of the
additional benefits any of the options provide, then
they will need to license the option.
Let me know if that is still not clear, and I'll go
back again.Thanks.
There is a minor inconsistency in their response ... they say "if deployed on EE". However, as far as I know OEM repository required VPD, which is available only on Enterprise Edition (see http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/em.102/e10953/pre-installation_req.htm#CHDGIEAD)
However, it is quite clear that 'they' are telling us that the RAC option is not inherent in the "Special Use Licensing" as described http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b14199/editions.htm#CJAHFHBJ .
The implication (not necessarily a topic for this forum) is that the OEM is not guaranteed to be able to provide basic monitoring and reporting functionality without additional license fees to make OEM more highly available than the targets being monitored.
It would be nice to have the information about which Oracle products (database and app server) have included licenses with a basic Grid Control install and which require additional licenses as part of Chapter 1 of http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b40010/toc.htm (That document goes into excruciating detail about the extra packs, but ignores the basics.)
For that matter, since OEM Grid Control can not be purchased, it would be nice to have a list of products that provide license to install Grid Control, again in Chapter 1 of the Grid Control Licensing document listed above.
I appreciate your time in having dug into this.

Run Singlular Database Control and Grid Control Agents at the same time????

Hello,
I have walked into a new job where one of my 1st tasks is installing and configuring EM Grid Control version 10.2.0.3. Most of the individual databases already have singular EM/Database Control also set up for basic monitoring - some are 10.2.0.1 databases; some are 9.2.0.7 databases.
Can I continue to run the existing singular EM Database Controls for monitoring and managing the databases while I am getting connected, the new agents up and running, and the Grid Control templates and alerts and notification fully set up?
Or will I have to shut down those agents fully prior to installing the new 10.2.0.3 agents???
I am hoping so since they use different communication ports of 1158 for the singular Database Controls versus 4889 for Enterprise Wide Grid Control.
Thanks for any help in clarifying this.
KL

OK, so as long as I keep the homes separate & straight, I could conceivably allow them both (Database Control and Grid Control Agent) to run AND be used at the same time - even when using secured grid control (https), correct? Just have the separate homes for separate agents and use separate ports for the different consoles?
Of course I might still run into an issue with this, ass I am also in the process of securing Grid Control... The current Database Console used by the app users to monitor is NOT an https url...
The real reason for this is because some app users are used to using the EM Database Control for application monitoring. I would like to not take that away from them while I am in the process of setting up all of the users, roles, alerts, groups, etc. on Grid Control.

10gR2 RAC, more 10gR2 RAC, DataGuard and Grid Control on Windows 2003

Hello all,
I have never used GC to implement DG between two different RAC installations, so if i could just a few questions to the experts.
1) It seems that the Grid Control GUI of the DG broker cannot created a RAC instance for physical/logical standby. You have to use the third option from the wizzard, the one about the previously created standby database.
Can i hope that as long as i create the RAC standby i will still be able to work with GC?
2) Currently, when i try to create a physical standby from my primary RAC instance, i get a Java exception when i try to perform the backup and message like "Index: 3, Size: 3". doesnt really help... Does anybody know what this means?
3) Once i have the whole solution implemented, will the two clusters require the presence of the Grid Control machine to "talk to each other"? Ie what will happen if i shutdown the Grid Control machine?
GC: Grid Control
DG: Data Guard
RAC: Real Application Clusters

well i skipped Grid Control all together and went for an all command-line approach and ... it works! Maybe i shall setup GC now to see graphically what i did, but i found more confidence working the traditional way, both for creating the standby backup with RMAN and starting up the initial standby instance, registering it with the clustered ASM and adding more stby instances with srvctl as i needed.
I found a great ally in all the documents listed in the MAA section of oracle.com
and i could only suggest them (at least until 10.2 version of GC comes out)

Difference between data control and grid control

Hello, All:
When I installed my 10g database, the OEM data control was also installed, I can use it to manage my database perfectly. now I see there is a seperate product for OEM grid control that need to be installed from different CD, Can someone tell me what's the difference between this Data Control and Grid Control?
Thanks in advance

DBconrtrol is for monitor only one database but from Enter prise manager Grid Control you can monitor and manage all the database in your enterprise basically
Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control is a single, integrated product for monitoring and managing Oracle software infrastructure as well as applications and business services in diverse IT environments

Cleaning up the Grid Control Repository Database

Our Grid Control Repository database has grown large over time and we need to free up some space. When we remove targets, is all the data related to the target cleaned out?

Double check your partition maintenance is working.
Deleting targets will delete the underlying data, but you may have to do some general database cleanup to reap the benefit in space terms.

Purging the Grid Control Repository database

Our Grid Control Repository database has grown large over time and we need to free up some space. When we remove targets, is all the data related to the target cleaned out?

When you remove targets, related data is removed. However, it is advisable to use the emd_maintenance package to clean up and reclaim space.

PeopleSoft 8.52 Plug-in Implementation Guide for use with Grid Control

Per the Readme accompanying the download of PeopleSoft 8.52 Plug-in for use with Grid Control (11.1.0.1)-- "For the implementation reference guide, refer to "PeopleSoft Enterprise Environment Management Plug-in 8.52 for Oracle Enterprise Manager Implementation Guide" which you can download from Oracle Technology Network."
I don't seem able to find it.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
TIA

Grid Control Repository

How to find that which database is having the Grid Control repository?
I have a server SAFLO1 on which there are around 20 database instances running.
I know the Agent Home but not able to find the repository database.

Look up file:
$OMS_HOME\sysman\config\emoms.properties
Where you find this line:
oracle.sysman.eml.mntr.emdRepConnectDescriptor=(DESCRIPTION\=(ADDRESS_LIST\=(ADDRESS\=(PROTOCOL\=TCP)(HOST\=hostconnect)(PORT\=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA\=(SID\=SID)))SID=Name of your rep. database.
Im sure its a better way to do this, maybe not. :)

Differences between EM Database Control and Grid Control/Cloud Control

Hi everybody,
just a short question: To show my colleagues and my boss, which one is the better one I would like to have a view about what the differences between Database Control and Cloud Control Versions of EM are and which functions would like the monitoring work more comfortable for us DBA's. Does anybody know a link or document for that?
Thanks a lot!
Regards,
David

Is this the own advantage of between Cloud Control and DB Control, that Cloud Control can monitor more than one instance?Someone that are using Grid control will tell you that it is a great avantage.
We've just one database instance. But I've read about SNMP functions, that are only supported in Cloud Control. Are there more advantages?if you only have one database instance, Enterprise Manager is your best way at this moment.
At some time, for example when 12g arrives, will Cloud Control be the standard installation?for the moment...nobody knows what is coming with 12c database...

Require SSL for IMAP (and possibly, SMTP)

Hello,
I'm having quite a bit of trouble changing the server configuration to require SSL for IMAP connections on the server side. (Ideally, I'd like to require SMTP to send email as well, but not require for outbound connections from other hosts as it may stop message delivery.)
If anyone has had luck doing this on OS X Mountain Lion / Server.app it would be great if you could share your steps?
Thx.

It would be helpful is you could explain what your experience is, since there are many possibilities and knowing what you're encountering would help.
The most obvious/common issue is that IMAPS (IMAP+SSL) uses port 993, not the normal IMAP 143.
If your clients are configured to only use 143 then they will break until they're reconfigured to use 993.
Since you don't mention whether you've checked port numbering, it's impossible to tell if that's your issue or not.
As for SMTP, if your mail server accepts mail from any external hosts then you do NOT want to require SSL. Few, if any, remote mail servers support SSL for SMTP, so you'll just block any external servers from sending mail to your domain. I doubt your users want that.
