Historical Performance Information in Grid Control

We have EM Grid Control 10.2.0.3 monitoring a 9.2.0.7 database.
I am not able to see historical information past one day, especially on screen like "Active Sessions Waiting: User I/O". I checked that the statspack is running at level 6.
I would be extremely obliged if someone has faced this and resolved the issue.

First, STATSPACK is independent of anything collected by OEM 10g. Also, STATSPACK collection levels refer more to how much detail is collected, not retention.
For OEM 10g, defaults are I believe - raw data 7 days, hourly 31 days, daily 1 year. If you want to look behind the scenes as if data is really there, check tables like sysman.mgmt$metric_hourly.

Performance reports using Grid Control

Hello!
Can we create and schedule database performance reports using oracle 10g grid control?
Thanks.

Hi
Yeah its possible to generate the performance reports using Grid Control.
Ex:
Oracle Enterprise Manager GRID Server contains built in reports to support Database Administrators to generate sightly reports.
First Thing is to click to "Reports" tab on the top, right hand side of the GRID Management Console (figure_grid_management_console). This page is where all the predefined and custom reports can be find. Now click on the "Create" Button on top of the page to create a new custom report. "Create Report Definition" page comes to the screen. There are four tabs for the definition of the report.

Oracle 9i Database -- Performance window in Grid Control not data available

Hi
I have Grid Control 10.2.0.4 on Red Hat and i monitoring some Oracle 9i Instances. When i go to any of these instances to the Performance section, at begininig , ever, not data available in all the graphics.
When i select manual refresh the graphic begin to build information. But if i close the explorer and reopen , all graphics not have any information.
Is the situation normal for all Oracle 9i databases?
The explanation is that Oracle 9i not have AWR ?
Thanks

You have too few RAM on your machine, even you could successfully create an instance, it's going to slow as hell.
When you run DBCA to create database, instead of actually creating the database you could choose to dump the SQL scripts and files used for database creation to a directory. This way will give you a chance to modify pfile and reduce the SGA parameter. I believe the default SGA of instance created by DBCA is already beyond your RAM limit.

Great leap backwards in Grid Control functionality.

Unfortunately I find myself using a newer version of Grid Control / OEM that REQUIRES use of the Flash plugin. You don't have a choice. So I use Flash reluctantly, the graphs appear, functionality appears just fine until I right click on the legend of a performance graph to try to drill down using "open in new tab" and instead I get the previously-mentioned little menu about "print/whatever/about Flash player".
What an annoying leap backwards in functionality. You can't leave the existing window open and open a new tab or window, instead you're allowed to replace the current screen with the drilldown screen. And then after drilldown, at the top of the new screen where hopefully there would be an HTML link that would allow me to at least try to open the previous window ( Top Activity ), there is no such link.
What a foolish choice to require the use of Flash. What an annoying downgrade of functionality. Now I can smoothly drag a gray box back and forth on the screen to highlight the time slice I'm interested in, but I can't do the things I really would like to do like drilldown while retaining the original window, save a single graph to a graphics file to attach to a mail message, etc.
I used to be able to save performance graphs and include them as attachments in email. Now instead with Flash I can "print" them to a file - unfortunately a) it's gray scale not color and b) it only shows the left half of the graph and c) it saves all of the graphs on the page when usually I'm only interested in one graph.
Guess I got spoiled by not having to use flash. I wonder how long we'll have to wait for Flash to include startling new right-click functionality like being able to print a single graph or have links on the plugins behave like actual URLs - instead of giving us a Print/Settings/About Flash 9 menu . Settings menu actually includes the remarkable privacy settings menu with which you can allow the remote computer to access your camera and microphone, or the Local Storage menu where you get to specify how much information the grid control server can store on your computer. I have been waiting for those functions with bated breath, after all who needs to open another window with useful data when it's possible to provide someone on a remote computer to access your computer's accessories.

I have modified my /etc/hosts file and the problem is solved.
and I don't think the localhost.domain line should be commented.
if so, the listener can't start successfully.
anyway. thanks for you reply.

Building reports around grid control database.

As a part of Grid control support activity many times we need spend hours to verify if all the targets have been assigned rules and thresholds so that they can generate alerts well before the trouble occurs.
So i was wondering is there any way by which which can write some script that will scan all the targets and find out which are not assigned to rules.
I am not sure if i can access these information from grid control database.
Can somebody help me in this ? is there any way to find out which rules have been assigned to which target or what is the threshold assigned to a particular targets by writing sql query / using oracle packages ?
Appreciate help in this regard.

Here is some sql I use for this purpose..
(I comment out pieces and such to tweak what I am reporting against)
Run this as sysman in your repository db.
select
target_type,
target_name,
metric_column Metric,
metric_name || ' ' || key_value Name,
decode(warning_threshold,' ',null, decode(warning_operator,'Equal To','=','Not Equal','!=','Greater Than','>','Less Than','<',warning_operator) || ' ' || warning_threshold) Warning,
decode(critical_threshold,' ', null, decode(critical_operator,'Equal To','Not Equal','!=','=','Greater Than','>','Less Than','<',critical_operator) || ' ' || critical_threshold) Critical
from mgmt$metric_collection m
--where target_type = 'oracle_emd'
--and metric_column = 'HostInfovszGrowth'
--and warning_threshold != '20'
--where target_type = 'host'
where-- metric_column like 'tnsPing'
-- (warning_threshold != '80' and critical_threshold != '95')
--and
target_type = 'oracle_database'
--and target_type = 'host'
--and
--target_type = 'oracle_listener'
--target_type = 'oracle_emd'

They aren't. You may see references to trace files in the alert log pages .. for instance when you get an ORA-xxxxx alert it will show the name of the trace file that pertains to it.

As curious as I always am, I was able to discover my XE database from the GC 10.1.0.4 last month. I did this because I asked myself the same question. When there is time, I normally will try everything that says "Not supported" or "Not compartible" to prove it right or wrong. So give it a go, but don't post errors from it here :-). I have not tried it for GC 10.2.0.2, but it worked on 10.1.0.4 (hopefully 10.1.0.3).
Remember, XE has all the features of EE, but a cutdown version. It has an Oracle Service and a Listener on a port, so the agent will pick them up. I have tried all possible things and tools (Forms, Reports, Designer Repository, Jdeveloper, SQL Developer, ODBC, JDBC etc) on XE to break it, but it works like EE. The only difference is when you hit the max allowed 4GB (excluding 1GB system) and I proved the limit right by kicking of a data load into a table using a cursor until it hit the maximum 4GB limit error.

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.

Trying to use grid control to get historic file system information

Hi.
I need to get the file system historical information for a year. I need to be able to say how in the past year such and such a file system has increased in space etc.
I am using OEM Grid Control. I have been trying to find this information this way:
Home/Local File Systems/click on specific file system and then View Data for one year.
Trouble is, this bview is more visual than statistical. I need hard figures!
Is this the right way? Should I try another approach? This must be a common request?
Oracle 10.2.0
DA
Thank you.

Querying the tables/views inside OEM Grid Control (GC) Repository - the database - may help. By default, GC stores information into tables owned by SYSMAN and aggregates the information on a pre-defined schedule, like first week, first month, first year, etc depends on the definition. So you might not find some details of the historical information.
Try mgmt$metric_daily to get the numbers. You would need target_guid from mgmt$target to pinpoint the server.
Not sure 100% all details you are looking for, which will determine the metrics to query. But anyway here is a simple example. Hope it helps. The Oracle documentation has more details.
SELECT metric_name,metric_column,
TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(rollup_timestamp,'YYYY-MM-DD'), 'YYYY-MM-DD') AS month_timestamp,
maximum value
FROM mgmt$metric_daily
WHERE target_guid='......'
AND metric_label = 'Storage Summary'
AND metric_column = 'local_fs_used'

Grid Control performance tab not available when on the target home of ASM

I noticed recently that the "Performance" tab/link is not available when you are using 10g Grid Control and you are on the home page of an ASM instance. Can this be explained?

Hi MarGur
I try to help you. The OEM Grid Control in some times not discover the Oracle 9i databases and you must to add manually.
First, check in your target machine that the user owner of agent software have rights of read and write in the ORACLE_HOME directories of Oracle 9i databases.
Go to Grid Control Console
Select Targets ---> Databases
Press Add --> Select the host ebisdb2.oneshield.com and press continue
The automatic discover process begin. When finished is very normal that nor discover the Oracle 9i databases. You press the Add manually button
in the page that appear you must entry all the configuration information of database:
ORACLE_HOME directory
DBSNMP USER
DBSNMP PASSWORD
HOSTNAME
PORT
SID
Check that the dbsnmp user in your database is unlock and press the TEST button to verify the connection work fine.
After this many windows appear of configuration process, and you will put the sys password and host credentials.
If you have problems, tell me

Hi,
If you want to use EM 11g Grid Control on 64-bit Linux, you should install version 11.1.0.1.0, which is available from here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/oem/grid-control/downloads/linuxx8664soft-085949.html
Note that the latest version of EM is 12c; however, if you still want to go with EM 11g, the following Support note documents the installation steps and has references to other helpful notes:
Step by Step Installation of Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11.1.0.1 (Doc ID 1059516.1)
By the way, the Concepts guide below has information about the EM 11g components including the OMS and agent:

10g grid control. minimum DB privileges for database performance tab?

database -> performance tab -> log into database.
what are the minimum privileges needed for this? I normally use DBA privs. However, I need to give access to non-dbas. When I try to log in with their account, it says see the help. I have been hunting through the help, but can't find anything about this.

This article may be of use: http://dbastreet.com/blog/?tag=grid-control
If you "grant select any table" (Query tables, views, or mviews in any schema) to the role oem_monitor you get what you want. Maybe an overkill but thats what I can think of now.

OEM Grid Control taking a long time to load tablespace information

We use OEM Grid control to monitor many dev/tst/prd databases. OEM is taking a long time to load the tablespace page information on one of our RAC databases (only one all other dbs ok). I have tried going to 1 instance in the environment and it still takes a long time to load the information about all tablespaces in this database. OEM Path is
Cluster: crs > Cluster Database: sid > Database Instance: sid_instance1 > Tablespaces
This is a development environment and it is not a very busy database at this time. Anyone else encounter an issue like this with OEM?
Thanks in advance for any information

user12192488 wrote:
Purge your recyclebin. I had the same problem on one of our databases and realised that the recyclebin was very large. OEM uses the space from the recyclebin as well in order to load tablespace and datafile information.
SQL> purge dba_recycebin;
Worked for me.
Regards,Thanks,
It worked perfectly !
It used to take 4 minutes to view my tablespaces in OEM !!! Now I have sub second response time !
Still find it strange that the size of the recyclebin would have such an effect when viewing tablespace info in OEM. By the way it also sped up the viewing of datafiles in OEM.
