Grid Control and filesystem monitoring

Hi,
With the use of emagent_storage.config, are we able to monitor filesystem statistic? If so, where in Grid Control(11g) is the monitoring page located. I am only able to find the metric monitoring of space/usages rather than file system stats of read/write performances.
Thanks

you should mark this is as closed and open it in the em section
Enterprise Manager
but more then likely need a plugin, if theres not one here
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oem/extensions/index-100685.html#OEM11g
and noone else has built one, you'll have to build one yourself

  • Figures in Grid Control and Enterprise Manager Console don't match!

    Hi,
    I have just installed Oracle 10g Grid Control and it is managing an existing database on another server. It appears to gather information as expected in most areas (I can look at the alert log through grid control and it is up to date to the nearest 60 seconds as I expect) but today I looked at how full my undo tablespace is and the figures seemed completely wrong. When looking through grid control it showed me that Undo was 20% full. When I looked in the old java console, it showed it was 30% full!
    Is there any reason why figures in Grid Control would not be accurate or up to date? I have no error messages and it seems to be gathering data fine.
    Is it more likely the old java console is not accurate? (I've always found it accurate in the past I think!).
    These are Solaris Sparc servers, Oracle 10.2.0.3 Grid Control monitoring an Oracle 10.2.0.3 database on a remote server via management agent.
    Thanks,
    Paula

    And this morning my old console says 21%, and the new Grid Control says 14%. So they both seem to be gathering the info and putting it out but they have completely different opinions on how much space is used. I think that makes the whole thing fairly useless. Not so glad I spent an age trying to get grid control set up now!!!
    Any thoughts much appreciated!!!!
    Thanks,
    Paula

  • Installing Grid Control and not using ASM

    Is it possible to install Grid Control and not be using ASM? We are on the brink of beginning our install (Peoplesoft) and may not use ASM. It seems to me from documentation that I'm reviewing that installing GC assumes you will be using ASM.
    Any info would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    the Grid Control Repository database does not require ASM. It works perfectly fine with datafiles on a normal filesystem.
    Best regards,

  • Installing Grid Control and managing DBs on desktop

    I want to install Grid Control, and manage DB on my own testing environment on desktops...I tried one time to install Grid Control on my desktop i become very slow. Now i am thinking to buy new Desktop dedicated for Grid Control only and see how it goes...any suggestions?
    2nd how i can access my DB on the other desktop? Like i should install agents on that...and how to configure....

    When teaching this class I typically have 6 pairs of students sharing a single P4 3Ghz with 4Gb of RAM gridserver. (combined 10.1.0.4 emrep with single OMS on RH 3 AS)
    THis is more than enough for the 150 or so targets that we configure during class
    The agents are deployed in any of several methods.(the install DVD is probabally the easiest for 1's and 2's) If you are monitoring a db expect to use about 150Mb of RAM for the agent. After setting up the agent ensure that your computer has local security policy configured so that "Login as Batch" is enabled for the user account that will be used for authentication to the desktop. (this also means that you need to have a windows password configured for that account as well).
    The database configuration is semi-automatic once you have the agent installed on the desktop (it's called discovery)

  • Oracle 10.2.0.3 Grid Control and ReNew the IP Address

    Hello
    I have installed Grid Control and added few hosts and was working fine. But I have changed the IP address of Grid Server host. I mean I have been given new IP address for Grid Control host.
    I have changes the ip address in /etc/hosts and reboot the server. But Grid Control Console page is not coming up on IE. Help Please...
    Regards
    Sindhi

    It has been sorted out. As Grid Control use FQDN and it do not use IP address. Just I changes the IP address and FQDN was same. I was forgot to change IP address from Terminal Server where I was accessing Grid Control Console using IE. Thanks for you both to response my query.

  • Install Grid Control and use repository within a DataGuard configuration

    Hello,
    I need some information if anyone has experience in the following
    We have severel database running in DataGuard standby configuration.
    I want to install OMS 11.1 and use the repository in a primary and standby configuration.
    My configuration will look like this:
    host 1     Primary Repository database
         OMS service 1
    host 2     Standby Repository database
         OMS service 2
    During normal operation i want to have 2 OMS services running.
    Whenever a failover is necessary, i want to active my standby database and run OMS service 2.
    Can this be a working configuration?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Ben

    Hi.
    As far as I know, the dbconsole installed with the Oracle database applies for only one database on one server. The information accessed by the dbconsole relies within the sysman schema inside the actual database. For a database environment with 10 databases, it is possible to install grid control and manage all these databases despite version and OS. And I think that grid is a good solution to such an environment.
    The grid installation itself is a application server installation, and I suggest if possible that you separate the rdbms server and the server that contains the grid control.
    The repository database the grid control uses can either be installed in the 10g environment or in the grid control environment (server). You can place the repository in a new database in a separate ORACLE_HOME from the actual grid control application server.
    Good luck.

  • Grid Control and CEP

    Hi,
    We are building for one of our clients a solution that is comprized from several products. One of them is CEP. For all theother products we can use Grid Control to "watch" the status and "health" of the products but we could not find any reference to CEP.
    We know that we can get the statistics on the EPNs using Visualizer or JMX but we prefer to have it all in one place. Is it possible to use Grid Control?
    Is there any information regarding Grid Control and CEP?
    Thanks,
    Shimon

    Hello,
    There is currently no support for CEP in Grid Control.

  • GRID Control and management  hostname

    With a HA deployment you have to set :
    emd.properties:#AgentListenOnAllNICs=FALSE
    This is ok for me but the servers have 3 differents IP adresses (3 differents hostname), one is foucuss for management tasks and this is not the name registered by the Agent.
    Do you know if it is possible to run host scripts (external jobs) with Grid Control and to specify the hostname where these jobs have to run by default the jobs will run on the hostname registered by the Agent.

    Hello,
    There is currently no support for CEP in Grid Control.

  • When to install Grid Control and when to just use 10g built in?

    1. is Grid Control really the only way to Enterprise Manage multiple databases? (if not, how do i switch from different databases on the 10g built in EM)
    2. I only have about 10 databases, is Grid Control overboard?
    3. Is it a bad or good idea to install GC on the 10g server?
    thanks,

  • Grid Control and SOA suite monitoring best practice

    Hi there,
    I’m trying to monitor a SOA implementation on Grid Control.
    Are there some best practices about it?
    Thanks,     
    Nisti
    Edited by: rnisti on 12-Nov-2009 9:34 AM

    If they use it to access and monitor the database without making any other changes, then it should be fine. But if they start scheduling stuff like oradba mentioned above, then that is where they will clash.
    You do not want a situation where different jobs are running on the same database from different setups by different team (cron, dbcontrol, dbms_job, grid control).
    Just remember their will be aditional resource usage on the database/server to have both running and the Grid Control Repository cannot be in the same database as the db console repository.

  • ITANIUM Grid Control and Oracle 10.2.0.3 update

    QA and PROD databases were installed as 10.2.0.1 on Itanium servers.
    QA was taken to 10.2.0.3 two weeks ago.
    Grid Control AGENT was applied to QA early last week.
    QA database continues to perform
    PROD was not taken to 10.2.0.3
    Grid Control AGENT was applied to PROD early last week.
    PROD continued to perform.
    THIS MORNING applying 10.2.0.3 upgrade to PROD: Installation set passed Deinstall and Install then at LINKING returned "Error in invoking target 'client_sharedlib" of makefile '/oracle/CDWP/orahome/nedtwork/lib/ins_net_client.mk" See '/home...log'. Examining the log led to libclntsh.so.10.1 WITH ZERO FILESIZE LENGTH. Further testing had repeated results.
    THIS THREAD WILL BE PLACED IN ENTERPRISE MANAGER AND METALINK.
    It appears the ITANIUM GRID CONTROL release was not well QC'd. I am FORCED to recover the PROD database from backup.
    ANYONE with any insight on how to install 10.2.0.3 AFTER Grid Control please respond.

  • Can Grid Control on Windows monitor databases on UNIX?

    If I install Grid Control on a Windows pc can I use it to monitor databases on UNIX?

    There are two reasons I have to reboot the box.
    1.You know, Windows always needs "update and reboot".
    2.Sometimes I got the EM error message "Count of targets not uploading exceeded the critical threshold " from all hosts, but I am sure all hosts and agents were working normally.
    After receiving errors, I found the grid control can't show the right chart on the performance tab.
    Then I reboot the box and everything works fine again.

  • Grid control and em console !!

    We have been using em console for a long time. It is very usefull for us. But we want to go one step further. What is the difference between these two? What will we gain if we use Grid control instead of em console?
    Thank you very much for the replies.
    Regards.

    I assume you are refering to EM Database Control.
    EM Database Control is focussed on management of one single Database.
    OEM GRID Control, allows you to monitor and manage a complete data center. Meaning all Hosts (servers), Databases, Application Servers, Applications, Network components, Storage components etc. etc.
    By using Management Packs you will have an enormous amount of features to do things like:
    Configuration Management
    Performance Tuning
    Diagnostics
    Service Level Management
    Provisioning and Automated Patching
    Application Testing
    etc.etc.
    CHeckout the documentation and data sheets on OTN for more info.
    If you have any questions please ask.

  • Oracle Grid Control and Oracle Application Management Pack for Siebel

    I am trying to get the Oracle Grid Control Software to work with the Siebel Application Management Pack so that I can effectively monitor Siebel. The client I am at does not have a budget for proper monitoring solution therefore, I have chosen the free alternative. Anyway, the Oracle 10G Agent is running on all the windows Siebel Servers and all of the Siebel Servers appear within the Oracle Grid Control management tool. At this time I am more interested in monitoring the Siebel metrics versus the windows metrics.. I have added Siebel as a Target Subtab within Oracle Grid Control. I have also successfully run through the Oracle Agent 10G SiebelClassPathfix.bat command on each Siebel Windows Server. What I am not able to do is add a Siebel Enterprise through the Oracle Grid Control Manager Software. When I attempt to add a Siebel Enterprise I receive the following error message. Any suggestions would be beneficial.
    An error occured while adding Siebel Enterprise.
    Credentials - Missing Credentials for host halcrmtgw01.dinghy.hal.test

    Please log a service request with tech support so that we can track this inquiry. On the service request, capture a screenshot of the page where you defined the host preferred credentials, and tell us the names of your servers.
    Btw, I take that you are stuck in the step in which you:
    - Click the "Add Enterprise" button to add the enterprise
    - Fill in the 7 parameters
    - Click Ok to start the discovery process
    Which release of Siebel and Enterprise Manager are you using?

  • Differences Between Grid Control and Application Server Console

    Hi,
    I have come across a situation where a customer has an OC4J container and has deplyed several applications in this container. When they access Application Server Control Console thay can stop and start these applications individually.
    However, the customer cannot monitor the status/state of these applications from withing Grid Control. We can see that the OC4J container is either up or down and will be alerted for the change of status. However, if a single application within the container is down they will not be alerted.
    We are using GC 10.2.0.5, iAS 10.1.2.2. Is there a way around this, or dies the Application Server Console have a little extra functionalitly in it compared to Grid Control?
    Tim.

    Hi,
    On your grid control, create a new Notification rule and select "Web Application" from the target drop down and then select your application then in availability tab, select up and down for which you want to receive notification.
