Dataguard creation with Grid Control

hi all
i'm trying to create a physical standby database with grid control. (asm to asm)
after setting various properties in the wizard, grid goes on creating a broker config and when it gets to the step "preparing standby database creation" it fails with "ERROR: invalid username and/or password."
no more info on where it fails.
preciate if anyone has any tips on what to check.

Hi jstem,
thank you for your help
The initial status of the DATAGUARD is SUCCESS, and all is working fine with the BROKER.
The"Availability"=>"Dataguard Administration" page is correct, all the indications are right, except :
- Estimate Failover Time : Not available
Here is the output of 'Verify Data Guard Setup'

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

There's currently no way to monitor a whole SAP system through gridcontrol. Of course you can monitor the underlying database.

How to monitor Oracle Glassfish with Grid Control 11g

Hi,
Could someone tell me how can i monitor Oracle Glassfish with Grid Control 11g ?? i think i need a plug-in but i don't know where could i download it
I guess the information i can monitor depends on the plug-in :)
Regards
Carlos

Hi Carlos,
We do have partners that routinely write plug-ins to extend OEM. If you take a look at the EM Extensibility Exchange below, you will find various extensions that partners such as Blue Medora have written:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=34841:1:26399399216901:::::
Please keep in mind though that between SLM and JVM diagnostics, you would have a significant amount of visibility even without the Glassfish target.
Cheers,
Glen

Can Oracle Application Diagnostics for Java used with Grid Control 10.2.0.3

I have installed Grid Control 10.2.0.3 in Solaris 10.
I was asked to install AD4J . Is it necessary to upgrade Grid Control to 10.2.0.4 for installing AD4J or can I use the present 10.2.0.3 version withour upgrading it ?

Hello.
We already have Grid Control 10.2.0.4 and just installed AD4J 10.2.0.4. This version of AD4J is not integrated with Grid Control, and can be setup on any server by unzipping the downloaded file (no installer). I did find the installation/configuration documentation lacking, but worked through it with a little help from Oracle Support.
The AD4J console has the look and feel of Grid Control, but is totally separate app with its own Apache server, etc.

Physical standby database Version 11g Creation over grid control 10g

We are useing oracale 11g enterprise edition and want to create a physical standby database on another machine:
On primary host we've installed "standard database" and turned on archive log mode over em.
On the standby host we've installed only oracle without a database and without a listener.
On a third machine we've installed grid control and registered the primary and standby hosts. Using EM with Data Grid I'm attempting to create a Physical Standby on standby host. Everything is working except for the last part as noted here:

What is to do?
What mean's in this case:
"ORA-01152 file string was not restored from a sufficiently old backup
Cause: An incomplete recovery session was started, but an insufficient number of redo logs were applied to make the database consistent. This file is still in the future of the last redo log applied. The most likely cause of this message is forgetting to restore the file from backup before doing incomplete recovery.
Action: Apply additional redo log files until the database is consistent or restore the datafiles from an older backup and repeat recovery."

Thanks for your immediate reply,
but there's a problem: We don't create the standby database manually. The creation is done by data guard over grid control. And the "automatic" creation stopps at this point.
Unfortunatly we don't know, wich steps of a manuall standby database creation are done and wich steps are not done at this point.
The oracle documentation (for release 11g) to create a manuall standby database is "B28294-02". But there's no step 5 "alter database recover managed standby database disconnect from session". Do you mean step 4 of chapter 3.2.6?
Is there no way, to create a standby database automatically over grid control? Or do we have to do something else before creating the physical standby database? Perhaps we have to create a full backup after switching to archive log mode?

How to use stored script from with Grid Control 10gR2

HI
My backup method uses a stored script in the recovery catalog that is separated from Grid Control's repository database.
In Scheduled Backup, there is no way to connect to recovery catalog; let alone use stored script. Is that true?
Thanks,
Kevin

it works, here is a test case , I use this functionality a lot

Monitoring with Grid Control : Default thresholds

Hi,
I have installed Grid Control 10GR2, and have been struggling with the monitoring the health of Enterprise databases. Previously, any critical health problem seemed to have been reported promptly..
The default time interval in Grid Control is too long for certain health issues.. like
database up-down, tablespace full...
I just wanted to get idea from others, what have they done with the time intervals?
Any suggestions/experiences??
- Jayant

I've kept the defaults on most things, I have changed a few things, notably a metric on the agent itself. But all databases self manage their space anyway. tablespace full you can just change to 5 minutes or something if you are concerned about it.Just experiment, everybodys requirements are different.
And for the other chap to change a time interval on grid control 10.2:
Go to Targets-->All Targets
Click on the name of the target you want to change (be it host/database or agent etc)
Scroll down the page and click on 'Metric and Policy Settings'
There you will see the collection schedule for each metric, this a clickable link from where you can then edit.
Alternatively use a monitoring template and do it that way, especially if you got lots to change.

Create dataguard 11gR2 uisng Grid Control fails

Hello !
I'm testing to use data guard using grid control. I have a fresh standard database created with dbca
When i start the gui i come to the Add Standby Database: Database Location screen
I add the information required and select next, then I get:
Internal Error has occurred. Check the log file for details.
I'm trying io locate the log files, but not sure where they are. Where shall I look ?
I have also tested to create a standby db using rman and it worked fine.
Appreciate your comments.
Thanks
Magnus

Hi!
The logfiles for OMS are, if you use GC11g:
$MIDDLEWARE_HOME/<Instance_Name>/user_projects/domains/EMGC_DOMAIN/servers/EMGC_OMS1/sysman/log
or something similiar
If you using GC 10, than the logfiles are: $oms_ORACLE_HOME/sysman/log

IDOC Creation with message control

I have created an IDoc using standard FM ' MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE' (without message control) for my own table. Now, I want to create IDoc with message control to send data from SAP to SAP. Can anyone please tell me the steps to create IDoc for my own database table and program to be created.
Thanks in advance.

Pankaj,
You can access the following link to understand Custom IDOC creation flow.
http://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/HOME/Step+by+Step+procedure+for+creation+of+IDOC
In The Process code FM, you can call Z-API to update your own database table & create a program to trigger & process the IDOCs.
Further, a report program can be created to trigger/monitor IDOCs.

Manualy onfigure database with grid control

Hi All,
I am using EM grid control 10g r4 to monitor many of the 9i and 10g databases in the environment.
Need help in this scenario.
On a db server (10.2.0.2) I have grid control agent (10.2.0.4) installed and able to monitor databases on it.
Recently my colleague created a new database with ’local EM database control’ instead of using centralized grid control. In this case how can I manually configure this new database to point to EM grid control.
Please let me know
~Thanks

You can attempt a rediscovery from within Grid Control.
On the server where you want to discover the target database set the ORACLE_HOME to the agent home and then execute:
agentca -d
This should rediscover and find your database.

Patch Deployment with Grid Control

Hello *,
i tried to move a patch to a 9i database. My grid-control is installed on a laptop with w2k and is running fine. The patch should be deployed to another laptop with an installed 9.2.0.4 database. The job is starting and creates the new directory and subdirectory on the target host but then the job failed with the following message.
java.net.NoRouteToHostException: No route to host: connect
I found nothing in metalink, so where is the problem?
Greetz
Ulli

I think this is a windows related problem. It's not so easy to transfer files to a windows workstation, ftp normally does not work, unless a ftp server is running. The formal explanation of this error says, the target host cannot be reached because of router or firewall problems, but this may be misleading in this case. If you have a support contract (hopefully), you should open a TAR.

Help with grid control survey....

I have to follow a grid control project, their company have AD,exchange plugin. I have to make a survey before deploying but i dont know how to ask some necessary questions to collect information, this the first time i have to do this.... I need a help, please help me. thanks

I went through a similar upgrade from 10.2.0.3GC/10.1.0.4 repository to 10.2.0.5GC/11.1.0.7 repository. What you have to make sure is that your configuration remains certified. So, given that 10.1.0.4 repository is certified against newer versions of GC, you can upgrade from 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.5 for GC first. Then upgrade your repository to the latest version, you can go with 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 or even 11.1.0.7.

Backing up database and archivelogs with grid control.

So I was scheduling a job to backup the entire database and archive logs to an ASM diskgroup. Well for some reason.... the backup of both the datafiles and archivelog files keep going to my $ORACLE_HOME/db/dbs directory. I have no clue as I've dropped the job and recreated it and made sure it was going to <diskgroup>. Anyone have any idea what might be happening? I'm using 10.2.0.4 for the database and ASM. My Grid control is also 10.2.0.4.
Thanks in advance
