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.

    anybody know what are the prerequisites to monitor SAP ENVIROMENT with grid control

    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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Batch remove all default policys on all targets monitored by Grid Control.

    Hi all,
    I have been searching for a way on how to remove all default policy's that are attached to the target after they have been added into the Grid Control.
    I have been trying with monitoring templates, but without any luck. Yes it changes values but it does not remove non template listed policy's.
    There must be a way to do this, without manually do it on all 400+ targets.
    All ideas of interest.
    Best regz,
    /Robban

    Nice it worked just fine.
    Thanks for the input.
    Dont know why I didn't think of disabling the policy's, but i guess that i goy snowed in on the removal part.
    Also ran into a new problem. (Unable to apply a monitoring template to a group with more then 100 targets)
    Found the solution on metalink: Note:455279.1
    Its a bug and there is a OneOff for it: "Patch 5573244"
    After applying that patch it worked fine.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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
    Luke

  • 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.

    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.
