Monitoring Oracle Virtual Appliance (OVA)

What management packs and plug-ins are required to monitor the Oracle Virtual Appliance (OVA) and manage the associated virtual machines? From my understanding the Cloud Management Pack should do most of this with the exception of monitoring the physical hardware (heard there is a plug-in in the works though). Is this correct? If not correct, what plug-ins or management packs are required to monitor the OVA successfully?
Before pointing me to documentation, I've reviewed the documentation and the licenses page inside of OEM with no clear cut outline of what should be used. As I've mentioned, I believe this to be covered in the Cloud Management Pack; just looking for confirmation.
Thanks
Bobby

I'm downloading "yet again", even if you did get good files then could you do me the favor of downloading any of the three and confirming the issue?
Possibly tossing a file in some dropbox app that works?
I hate asking, but what you got at dev-days on media might not be the same?

Monitoring Oracle Virtual Machine for Solaris servers and LDOMs

Hi all,
could anyone tell me if we can monitor Oracle Virtual Machine for Solaris servers and LDOMs with only Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c, or shall we need to install Ops Center ?
Thank you in advance.

I had the same issue. Upgrading Virtual box from 4.1.16 to 4.1.20 solved the problem.

Error when installing virtual appliance for r12.2.4

Hello
I have downloaded Oracle Virtual Appliance for Oracle E-Business r12.2.4 in a following step by step manner but I am running into an error. As per the readme, I have gone through the Note:1928303.1 but it does not address the issue.
That said, is there any comprehensive, step by step document that outlines installation and implementation of Oracle Virtual Appliance for r12.2.4?
Below are steps I ran.
Step 1: Downloaded and Installed Oracle Virtual Box version 4.3.22.
Step 2: I want to install Oracle EBS r12.2.4 single node installation on My Windows 8.1 64 bit laptop with 1 TB of HDD and 8GB RAM.
Step 3: Downloaded following files for single node vision appliance.
There are two zip files for each part, so I downloaded total 16 zip files.
V52470-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 1 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52471-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 2 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52472-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 3 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52473-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 4 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52474-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 5 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52475-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 6 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52476-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 7 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52477-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 8 of 8) Linux x86-64
Step 4: Unzipped these files
Step 5: After unzip, unzipped filename looked like following. So I removed the last digit in the extension so that Oracle virtual box can recognize .ova extension.
Unzipped file name:
Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova.01
renamed to
01_Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova
Step 6. In Oracle virtual box, attempted to import these ova files using "Import Appliance". This is when I am getting following error.
Oracle VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite (Linux)
Failed to import appliance C:\ova\EBS\INSTALLATION OPTIONS\Option 1 Single Node ALL\0_Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova.
Could not create the imported medium 'C:\Users\ova\VirtualBox VMs\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL-disk1.vmdk'.
VMDK: Compressed image is corrupted 'C:\Users\ova\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL-disk1.vmdk' (VERR_ZIP_CORRUPTED).
Result Code: (0x80BB0004)
Component: Appliance
Interface: IAppliance {3059cf9e-25c7-4f0b-9fa5-3c42e441670b}
This is happening with each and every file in above list.
Please advise what am I missing? And if there is a comprehensive document somewhere that outlines details about implementation. The above mentioned metalink note is not enough.

You need to merge all of the downloaded files first, before importing into Virtualbox. Google for my blog for detailed steps.

Is there an associated Linux GUI Desktop available with the VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.4 64 bit or is it all command line?

I have downloaded the 16 pieces of Oracle VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite (12.2.4) for x86 64 bit V52470-01 Parts 1 & 2 thru V52477-01 Parts 1 & 2 and unzipped and created the .ova.
I then imported that into VBox 4.3.22.
I went thru and changed the passwords for root, oracle, and applmgr as requested and entered a static IP.
I have not configured the DB or Applications yet.
However, I want to know if there is a typical GUI Desktop that can be brought up.
Thank you.

I have not been able to find a GUI desktop - I believe it is disabled or not included in the media.

Oracle BigDataLite Virtual Appliance confirmation

I'm trying to follow the instructions for installing the
Oracle BigDataLite Virtual Appliance
Oracle BigDataLite Virtual Machine
I'm running VirtualBox 4.3.6
7-Zip 9.2
Running on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 SP1 with AMD FX 8120 with 16 GB (a stock aspire M3450)
And there seems to be a disconnect in the PDF for the quickdeploy, as if in the rush to create the quick deploy document something was left out, or the process was not tested before posting for download
Specifically: from the PDF
After all zip files are downloaded, extract them with 7zip.
In Windows:
Right-click on file BigDataLite-xxx.zip.001 file and select 7-zip->Extract Here
The extraction will create the BigDataLite-xxx.ova appliance file.
Well the above is NOT happening
First the files are named at OTN as
BigDataLite-2.4.1.001
BigDataLite-2.4.1.002
BigDataLite-2.4.1.003
BigDataLite-2.4.1.004
BigDataLite-2.4.1.005
BigDataLite-2.4.1.006
Not as the naming convention in the PDF documentation which is requesting a .zip.001 extension
Can someone run a confirmation that a ova file can be created?

Oracle VM Virtual Appliances

Hi all,
Oracle VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite Deployment Guide, Release 12.2.4 (Doc ID 1928303.1)
The docs said that:
But when I login to root on my VM system, and run :
[root@db etc]# cat /etc/oracle-release
Oracle Linux Server release 6.6
Does this mean the doc is not updated? or the /etc/oracle-release is not updated?
Please help how to check.
Thanks a lot,
mk

Hi,
I know that this is an old discussion and you probably figured out the answer yourself.
Just to publish an answer and close it, the document is not up to date with the software you downloaded.
Nothing to worry about.

Monitoring an Oracle Database Appliance w/Ops Center?

Is anyone using Ops Center to monitor an Oracle Database Appliance?:
http://www.oracle.com/us/products/database/database-appliance/overview/index.html
I'm looking for a monitoring solution that won't require a lot of 'expect' gathering/parsing work.

A stack trace for the exception would be very useful!
Anyway, perhaps you should check that the username/password specified in the code correspond to those required to access the database (username = "Kotzwinkle", password = "whatever"). Sometimes you can get away with specifying these in the ODBC data source, in which case you shouldn't pass them to the getConnection method.
Hope this helps.

Can I use Oracle Developer Day.ova for learning purposes without any license? #developerday

Hi friends,
i have installed oracle db using Oracle Developer Day.ova for practicing on my lappie.
I want to connect to that DB which is inside oracle vm virtual box manager using PUTTY ( which is on my desktop). I dont want to use the in-built workspace or Terminal(whatever is its name).
Can you guys please suggest what should i do so that i can login to the DB using the PUTTY only (i love it )? i am not able to login to the host "localhost" using the putty.
Few years back when i had installed vmware(linux installed in it and db installed on linux) i could connect through putty.
I am using below entry in the hosts file.
# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
    127.0.0.1       localhost
#    ::1             localhost
'localhost' and its ip address of 127.0.0.1 are non-routeable. Any request to send a network message to localhost will never leave the machine from which the request originates. And for all intents and purposes, your virtual machine is a different machine.

Virtual appliance oel5u5-64bit-soabpm-11gr1-ps5-2-0-M: Can't deploy

Greetings,
After having installed the mentioned virtual appliance and created the dev_bpm domain, trying to deploy from Jdeveloper to app server raises the following:
[04:55:41 PM] Deploying profile...
[04:55:42 PM] Updating revision id for the SOA Project 'SalesQuoteToContractDemo.jpr' to '1.0'..
[04:55:43 PM] Wrote Archive Module to /home/oracle/jdeveloper/mywork/FusionNX_Application/SalesQuoteToContractDemo/deploy/sca_SalesQuoteToContractDemo_rev1.0.jar
[04:55:43 PM] #### Deployment incomplete. ####

(oracle.tip.tools.ide.fabric.deploy.common.SOARemoteDeployer)
It seems that the admin server in the dev_bpm domain is not configured for SOA. However, the documentation says:
"This domain is configured using the development template for SOA and BPM, which targets all the SOA and BPM applications to the AdminServer."
What am I doing wrong ?
Kind regards,

Does any body feel concerned ?

Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder or Oracle Template Builder

HI - can anyone confirm if Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder is going to be the replacement for the Oracle Template Builder? I've been using the template builder quite successfully over the past couple of weeks, and I thought I would give the assembly builder a go, and my impression is that it is utter rubbish.
It doesn't have even half of the functionality of the old template builder, and if Oracle are going to use this as the only template deployment tool for Oracle VM it would be a huge dissapointment.
Edited by: 858127 on May 11, 2011 5:38 AM

The Oracle Virtual Assembly Builder (OVAB) product is not a replacement for the Oracle Template Builder (OTB) tool. They both have different purposes.
OTB can be used to create a VM template with any arbitrary set of packages you want installed along with the linux distribution. But, once you create a VM instance from that template, you have to manually configure the contents of that template.
Alternatively, OVAB creates a specialized VM template that is constructed and configured to run a single instance of a particular product component that you have selected to be packaged into that appliance. Currently the list of supported products include WebLogic Server, Coherence, HTTP Server, and Database. The differentiation between OVAB and OTB is that as part of creating the VM template, OVAB extracts properties specific to the product that's packaged into that template, and then allows for those properties to be dynamically specified and automatically configured when that VM template is instantiated.
So OVAB and OTB are created with different uses in mind. OVAB is specialized for creating appliances containing specific products, while OTB is intended for creating VM templates containing arbitrary s/w packages.

Question about ANM Virtual Appliance ESX support

Hello,
I have a question:
I need to install ANM 5.2 on a virtual appliance (using the .ova file).
What ESX and vSphere versions does ANM 5.2 support?
I don't see any information regarding this on the release notes or installation guide.
Thanks.

Looks like the only requirement is Vcenter and Vsphere 4 client. So version 4.0 and up is supported.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/data_center_app_services/application_networking_manager/5.1/device_support/table/sdt.html
ANM 5.2 and 5.1 includes a plug-in that allows you to integrate ANM into a VMware virtual data center environment. VMware is a third-party product for creating and managing virtual data centers. Using VMware vSphere Client, you can access ANM functionality and manage the ACE real servers that provide load-balancing services for the virtual machines in your virtual data center.
To use the ANM 5.2/5.1 plug-in, you must use VMware vCenter Server and VMware vSphere Client 4.
For more information about using ANM in a VMware virtual data center environment, see the User Guide for the Cisco Application Networking Manager 5.2/5.1.

Export vm template out of Oracle Virtual Machine.

Can open format (ova) template be created in OVMM which can be exported? I do not see any export option in 3.1.1

Yes, i want to use it on another vm installation ... on the Oracle Database Appliance ... Problem is my current vm's use physical disks. The ODA install can only be discovered via OVMM and not added or configured under any Server Pool. I think i will need to perform a file based install and just transport that image file and create the new vm.cfg

Oracle Virtual Directory 10.1.4.0.1 installation on SUSE SLES10

I am attempting to install Oracle Virtual Directory version 10.1.4.0.1 on a brand new SUSE SLES10 Linux server. The installation fails due to missing libraries. This is true whether using the GUI or the console installation. The same set of binaries installs fine on a SLES8 and a SLES9 server.
The OVD 10.1.4.0.1 release notes and certification guide indicate that SLES10 is a supported platform. However, I cannot get the installer to work.
Following is the output and the error messages generated by the installer:

Does anybody know why this is failing? Thanks in advance for your help.

Here is the reply that I received from Oracle Support. The proposed workaround worked in my case. I am posting it here so that it may help others.
Workaround
===========
1.) cp ovid1014.bin ovid1014.bin.bak
2.) cat ovid1014.bin.bak | sed "s/export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/#xport LD_ASSUME_KERNEL/" > ovid1014.bin
3) run the modified installer: ./ovid1014.bin

Windows on oracle Virtual Machine

Hi
We have a server x86-64.We have installed Oracle Virtual server on this server.
Now we have a requirement of installing Windows Operating system on oracle virtual machine.
is this possible?
I checked available virtual templates on oracle edelivery. but there was not any available for windows.
Thanks,
Message was edited by: dba88

Hi,
You can install windows on Oracle VM Server, but no template with windows.
- you should import the windows.iso file in the repository
- create a VM with the type HVM or HVM, PV Drivers ...
- Install a windows
I hope this can help you
