Ops Center and LDOMs

Can't figure out where else to post this, these forums are lacking structure where it should be. Nothing that I can find relates to LDOMs or Ops Center (yeah, I know it's virutalization...)
Currently Ops Center only supports LDOM version 1.2 (1.0.2) for CMT systems. When will it support 1.0.3? There were quite a few nice udpates between them, and the 1.0.3 has been out for quite a while. From what I can tell, there has been at least 1 or 2 updates to Ops Center since 1.0.3 was released.

Found what I needed through other avenues

Add existing OVM servers to Ops Center 11g?

We are turning an Ops Center 11g pilot project into production and we need help with our existing OVM Server for SPARC servers. We have a number of OVM 2.2 servers. When we discover them we don't see the VM asset showing in the "All Assets" list. Is there a way to discover the "Oracle VM Server for SPARC" asset that we can then add to virtual pools?
Thanks,

Try this......
Also it shouldn't allow you to add such servers in an OVM Server for SPARC Server Pool.
Here a filter is missing in Ops Center: such servers shouldn't be proposed in the list of assets that can be added to a Server Pool, instead of allowing you to try it and then see an error that can't be understood.
To have a setup with servers that you will be able to add to Server Pools, and on which you will be able to create logical domains from Ops Center, you can either install these servers from Ops Center following the documentation at :
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27363_01/doc.121/e27511/ftr_ovm_sparc_mgmt.htm#autoId11 "Installation of Oracle VM Server for SPARC"
or you can install manually the LDoms Virtualization Controller agent on an already installed server.
I think this is not documented for LDoms, the current documentation at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27363_01/doc.121/e27511/asset_mgmt.htm#autoId13 "Installing Agent Controllers From the Command Line" will install a Zone Virtualization Controller Agent.
You should first uninstall the current Zone Virtualization Controller agent on your servers, running from the control domain :
$ /var/scn/install/uninstall
then I didn't do it yet manually on S11, I think it should be done as below if someone can confirm or provide the right procedure on S11. Otherwise I'm installing a s11 setup (with an MSR to sync that will take time) and could confirm tomorrow this manual procedure.
It should be similar as in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27363_01/doc.121/e27511/asset_mgmt.htm#autoId13
except that the zip to download at step 4 it the IPS zip : OpsCenterAgent.SolarisIPS*.zip
then at step 7, you have to run "install -l -p <proxy IP address>" instead of "install -a"
This step will expect that the S11 version configured on this server matches the version in the MSR you defined in Ops Center.
and at step 10, before running the "agentadm configure..." command, you need to create a file providing network settings :
create a file /opt/sun/n1gc/lib/virtualController.properties with the following content that you should adpat to your host (here for example on my host smt4-24, with IP address 10.166.88.53)
xvmserver.appliancename=smt4-24
network.interface=net0
network.ipaddress=10.166.88.53
network.subnetmask=255.255.255.0
network.defaultgateway=10.166.88.1
then proceed to the agentadm configure command as described at step 10.
After this command has finished, you should have in Ops Center an OVM for SPARC with ldoms management capabilities, allowing you to add this asset to a Server Pool and create logical domains

Performance report in ops center.

It is possible to create performance reports in ops center like PRM module in SunMC is doing for CPU Usage, Disk, Memory, Network.. etc.. ?
Thanks
Antonio

Hi Antonio,
You can also look at the Halcyon Neuron Performance Manager (http://www.halcyoninc.com/products/PerformanceManager/index.php). It hooks into Ops Center and/or SunMC to automate a lot of the reports (on top of what Ops Center provides out-of-the-box).
Note: I work for Halcyon, but part of my day job is also deploying and configuring Ops Center, so I hope this post is considered relevant.

Console redirection not working when ILOM is launched from Ops Center.

Hi,
I just installed Ops Center and added a few servers as assets. I'm having trouble to get console redirection when I start LOM Manager from within Ops Center.
If I point my browser and login directly to a server's ILOM web interface, I get console redirection without problems. If I do it through the "Start LOM Manager" option in Ops Center, I get an error message: "Cannot launch Java application" when I try to start redirection.
Is this normal behavior?
Thank you for your help.

Do you mean the 'Launch LOM console" from Action pane? If so, check your java version on the PC/laptop you are accessing OC from.
What is your OC version?
I am not finding any issue in accessing the ILOM console.

Installation of OPS Center

Hi,
Hi Team,
I have a Oracle EM 12c Cloud Control Installed in one of the Server.
Is it possible to install Oracle 12c R1 Ops Center on the same Server where our EM 12c Cloud Control exists?
Can i use my 12c Cloud Control Repository Database for 12c Ops Center Installation?
or
Oracle Ops center and EM 12c should reside on different server?
Please Guide

I believe it is suggested to NOT install both on the same server. We have Ops Center installed on 1 VM guest and EM on another VM guest, but technically on the same physical box.

Ops Center Network

Hi expert,
I just install OC 12.1.2.0
i have 2 proxy contoller: PC-A also become as EC and PC-B
PC-A have network 230, 231 and 248
PC-B have network 114 and 232
i have various asset with network segment 115, 117, 246, 224 and so on that is not exist in both of PCs.
i can ping and ssh to asset with network segment above from both of PCs.
my question is :
1. can we manage all asset segments, although their network segment don't exist in both PCs ? ...
is there any impact to OS provisioning ?
2. is it OK, if SP network managed by PC-A and OS network covered by PC-B (they all in same machine), they all are in different network segment ? ....
for ex: Svr-A have SP network : 231 for SP and 114 for OS.
it's happen in my environment, i have asset with SP network segment 231 that actually covered by PC-A, but it always run to PC-B.
when i tried to migrate to PC-A from PC-B after discovery, OC said PC-A unreachable.
i check with manual ping and ssh from PC-A, asset with segment 231 are reachable.
for any help, i would thank you
Wong.

Look at the "Managed Networks" feature: you can define a 10.250.20.x/24 network in Ops Center, and apply it to server1. When you add that new network you'll be asked what interface (i.e. bge1) you want it associated with. Once Ops Center knows about the 20 network, you can use it for things like zone/containers. (if you provisioned server1 with Ops Center this should have been done for you automatically, but there's some bugs in multi-NIC OS provisioning).
That's assuming you have distinct 10.250.10.x/24 and 10.250.20.x/24 networks... and you're not just using 10.250.x.x/16. It could be as simple as a subnet issue, where Ops Center thinks server1 is using 255.255.255.0 (10.250.10.x, so 20.x isn't valid) instead of 255.255.0.0 (where both 10.x and 20.x are valid IP ranges).

Can Ops Center forward or generate SNMP traps?

It's not clear to me what the enterprise controller for Ops Center 11g can do with SNMP traps. The Advanced User Guide says the EC can use "SNMP to discover assets" but that's about the most useful bit of information I can find. Can the EC receive and act on traps from agent hosts? Can it generate its own traps and send them on to a different managment host? If the EC can't do this by default, has anyone tried using any scripts?
Thanks,

the last answer I received was to use the plugin with Oracle enterprise manager grid control / cloud control.
what they didn't say, but it is in the documentation, is that only critical events are shared between ops center and oem. Yes you can see the database targets in ops center, and you can see the infrastructure targets in oem, but notification wise, only criticals. An of course you need to install both the OEM and the ops center agent on the target/asset. I have found that the plugin for ops center 12c and oem 12c doesn't actually send through any information at all, it will probably be fixed in update 1, but who knows.
There is a 3rd party product, Halcyon, that can apparently integrate with ops center. I think they wrote an api.

Oracle OpenWorld and Ops Center 12c

When I was at Oracle OpenWorld two weeks ago, I could have sworn the Ops Center booth was running an unreleased version of Ops Center (to be 12c). If that is the case, what is the estimated release date of this product? And will it be like Oracle Enterprise Manager, and only run on Oracle Linux? Or is Ops Center 11g just being rebranded under the Enterprise Manager "12c" brand?

At Oracle OpenWorld, Oracle showed a preview of the next release of Ops Center plus the currently shipping version 11gR1. Oracle cannot discuss specific future release dates over public forums, but should you have a local Oracle account team servicing your company you can reach out to them and find out more information via the non-disclosure agreement process.
Ops Center works on Solaris (x86 and SPARC), Oracle Linux, and several RPM distributions of Linux. I will also note that Enterprise Manager 12c also works on a large variety of Operating Systems. We currently only see the Oracle Linux version downloadable because it is their release process to release Oracle Linux first and then follow up that release with additional downloads for the other Operating Systems in the weeks that follow.

Does Ops Center 12c Release 1 PSU2 (update 2) work with T4 and solaris 11.1

From the release notes of Ops Center 12c Release 1 PSU2 (update 2)
Issues With Upgrading to Oracle Solaris 11.1
Oracle Solaris 11.1 is supported in Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center 12.1.2.0.0 but is not supported in prior versions of Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center. In addition, an issue with Oracle Solaris 11.1 prevents Oracle VM Server for SPARC management on Oracle SPARC T4 servers using the Oracle Solaris 11.1 OS. See the Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center Release Notes for more information.
Does any one know if there has been a fix for this yes

We were told this was actually a problem in OC not S11.1, and this was fixed in U2.
I know this contradicts with the other answer, but thats the info we received from Oracle.

Cookbook on how to create and attach networks to OVM for SPARC using OPS Center

I have a smallish installation of a number of SPARC T5-4s, T5-2s and T4-2s provisioned with OVM for SPARC and managed by OPS Center 12c2.
The OPS Center node is only connected to the ILOM/mgmt network, whereas the individual SPARC systems are connected to several other networks, some of which are VLAN tagged.
I am somewhat confused by the actions necessary to create these additional networks; I read the "how to"s however, I am still at a loss as to how to start. When I try to create a fabric, it wants a network. When I try to create a network, it wants a fabric.
Does anyone have a simple guide on how to add an additional network that I can then attach to my server pool?
Thanks

After Installing Solaris11 through Ops Center the OS Asset is not showing in Ops Center UI.

After Installing Solaris11 on T4-4 through Ops Center the OS Asset is not showing in Ops Center UI. Any Reasons why?

This is because probably caused by the following bugs:
15940804 - The LDom Control Domain OS asset is missing for the t5120 therefore it's unable to successfully provision Solaris 11.1.1 CDOM on a t5120 asset - see workaround above
15818412 - delete asset is not properly cleaning the __local mbeans in the domain model - Fixed in DU3
To reapply the deployment plan, delete the access point and rediscover. Still the plan fails upgrade to the latest version of Ops Center.

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.

Configuration issue with OPS Center installation on OEL 5 update 5

Hi,
I have installed OPS Center 11g on an OEL 5 update 5. All prereqs, i think, is met and installation gives no warnings or errors.
When I try to access the web page to run the configuration wizard. It hangs with the "LOADING" message, after logon. And nothing more happens.
In the bottom left corner of the browser i have the DONE message. But an error behind.

Hello Kai,
I am not sure to completely understand your logs since they don't seem to be written in English but
could it be that you are using Firefox 4.0 ? ( only firefox 2 and 3 and IE 7 and 8 are supported ).
Also, do you have enough free RAM ( 1-2 GB ) on the browser's machine ?
Lastly, you can check the prerequisites with
/var/opt/sun/xvm/OCDoctor/OCDoctor.sh ec-prereq force
/var/opt/sun/xvm/OCDoctor/OCDoctor.sh --troubleshoot
Cheers
