Oracle Configuration Manager 10.2.7 on physical standby database

Hi
Did anybody succeed to install and get running OCM on physical standby-database? When starting collection configuration script, i get
an known error ORA-01219.
Any help any tipps?
Felice

Hi Tom
Thank you for the information. I think it is the right place to install OCM - not standalone installation - software installed with Oracle Database Enterprise Edition. The problem is only that installCCRSQL.sh can't handle Mounted Database (Standby-Database).
We got similar problems with Grid Control Management Agents, when doing health checks.
Mayby there is as workaround/patch (Opatch).

Problem creating physical Standby database with RMAN

Hi All
I am trying to learn oracle dataguard and as part of the process learning creating standby database.
Platform : Sun-Fire-V250 Sparc, Solaris 10
Database Version - Oracle 11R2
I am creating standby database on same server, so directory structure is different.
Following the instructions on Oracle site I managed to create a functional physical standby database. But I am not able to create standby database using RMAN. These are the steps that I followed-
1.Set up all necessary parameters on primary database as done while creating physical standby database manually, eg setting force logging, creating standby logs etc.
2.Edited parameter file on primary database as done while creating manual pysical standby database creation. Some of the changes done are-
On Primary Database:
*.FAL_CLIENT='orcl11020' #Primary database unique name
*.FAL_SERVER='stdby_11' #Standby database unique name
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_config='DG_CONFIG=(orcl11020,stdby_11)'
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/flash_recovery_area/ORCL11020/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=orcl11020'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=stdby_11 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_1='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_DEST_STATE_2='ENABLE'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_FORMAT='%t_%s_%r.arc'
*.LOG_ARCHIVE_MAX_PROCESSES=30
Copied same pfile for standby database and modified following-
*.control_files='/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl','/<dir>/fra_stdby/stdby_11/stdby_11.ctl'
*.db_name='orcl1102'
*.db_unique_name='stdby_11'
*.FAL_CLIENT='stdby_11'
*.FAL_SERVER='orcl11020'
db_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11'
log_file_name_convert='/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11','/<dir>/oradata/orcl11020/redo_mem','/<dir>/oradata/stdby_11/redo_mem'
standby_file_management=auto
*.log_archive_dest_1='LOCATION=/<dir>/fra_stdby/STDBY_11/archivelog
VALID_FOR=(ALL_LOGFILES,ALL_ROLES) db_unique_name=stdby_11'
*.log_archive_dest_2='SERVICE=orcl11020 LGWR ASYNC VALID_FOR=(ONLINE_LOGFILES,PRIMARY_ROLE)
db_unique_name=orcl11020'
3. Add relevant information in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files and then restart listener.
3. Created password file with same credential as primary database.
4.Up-to-date RMAN backup of primary database available.
5.Create standby controlfile with rman
While primary database s open (I tried with primary database in mount mode as well)-
$>rman catalog rman/paswd@rman target /
RMAN> BACKUP CURRENT CONTROLFILE FOR STANDBY;
6. Open a new terminal and startup standby database in nomount mode using parameter file created -
$>ORACLE_SID=stdby_11
$>export ORACLE_SID
$>sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL>STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile='<location/initfilename.ora'
SQL>quit
$> rman AUXILIARY / target sys/passwd@orcl11020 catalog rman/passwd@rman
RMAN>DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE FOR STANDBY DORECOVER;
RMAN finishes without error but archive logs are not being tranported. Looking at the log, following caught my eye-
Error 1017 received logging on to the standby
Check that the primary and standby are using a password file
and remote_login_passwordfile is set to SHARED or EXCLUSIVE,
and that the SYS password is same in the password files.
returning error ORA-16191
FAL[client, ARC2]: Error 16191 connecting to orcl11020 for fetching gap sequence
Errors in file /<>dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
Errors in file /<dir>/diag/rdbms/stdby_11/stdby_11/trace/stdby_11_arc2_24321.trc:
ORA-16191: Primary log shipping client not logged on standby
So on both primary and standby I confirmed
SQL> show parameter remote_login_passwordfile
NAME TYPE VALUE
remote_login_passwordfile string EXCLUSIVE
To make double sure that password files are same, I shutdown both databases, delete password files and recreated with same credentials.
Password files are called - orapworcl11020 and orapwstdby_11
Can someone guide me where thisngs are going wrong here please.

Not sure if I understood it clearly.
SELECT * FROM V$ARCHIVE_GAP;
returns no rows so there is no gap.
But could you please explain me the result of the previous query. To catch up again, on standby when I check
SELECT SEQUENCE#,APPLIED FROM V$ARCHIVED_LOG
SEQUENCE# APPLIED
75 NO
74 NO
76 NO
77 NO
I understand that though archive files have been copied across but they are not applied yet.
On primary when I give your query -
SELECT name as STANDBY,SEQUENCE#,applied, completion_time
2 FROM v$archived_log
3 where dest_id=2
4 and sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80;
I get -
STANDBY SEQUENCE# APPLIED COMPLETIO
stdby_11 74 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 YES 28-JUN-11
stdby_11 76 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 77 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 78 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 79 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 80 YES 29-JUN-11
stdby_11 75 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 74 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 76 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 77 NO 07-JUL-11
stdby_11 78 NO 07-JUL-11
I have intentionally given
sequence# BETWEEN 74 and 80
because I know in the current incarnaion of the database, max sequence is 78.
So my understanding is, the rows between 28-29 June are from previous incarnation, correct me if I am wrong
Archive files of the current incarnation, since I successfully created standby database are shipped but yet to be applied - am I right?
Then my final question is, when will these archives be applied to standby database?
I am sorry to ask too many questions but I am just trying to understand how it all works.
Thanks for your help again

How to configure Oracle Configuration Manager in R12.0.4

Dear
I need to configure oracle configuration manager for my running R12.0.4 instance on single node setup.Whenever i try update my metalink credentials in oracle application manager dashboard,it says userid or password is wrong. While installation i skip the OCM screen. How can i configure it now either using Universal installer or comand line? Need all steps for setup?
Do i need to download & install OCM client or is it already shipped with software & needs just configuration setup?
Help me!
Regards

Ateeq,
Running AutoConfig should populate profile options with the correct values. However, you can check the values after running AutoConfig to verify it.
According to metalink document id, this Applications Server-Side Proxy Host And Domain profile needs to changed. Document id, will mention later.I forgot.Below are the notes:
Note: 297689.1 - Unable to update MetaLink credentials from OAM

How do I install Oracle Configuration Manager in oracle Fusion - discoverer 11i

Hello Gurus,
I need some guidance to install Oracle Configuration Manager.
I have just successfully installed Oracle Fusion - following "Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.6.0) (Part Number E10421-07)" without OCM. I have EBS 12.1.3 and rdbms 11.2.0 on the same server.
Thanks

You need to have an infrastructure as a pre-requisite for a portal type OAS installation.
Please see this [link and the whole guide - click Content on the top-right|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/win.1012/install.1012/install/mt.htm#sthref508] for details and then decide what have you installed that you are referring to as OAS 10g.

Oracle Configuration Manager - EBS R12.1.1

Hi ,
EBS R12.1.1, on OEL 5.4
Is there forums for Oracle Configuration Manager?
I am trying to configure it, but as usual the docs is very topsiturvy.
Identifying If Oracle Configuration Manager Is Already Installed or Configured
Oracle Configuration Manager is included with many Oracle product lines. To verify if
it has been included, check for the presence of the ccr directory under $ORACLE_
HOME. If the ccr directory exists, you must verify whether it has been configured.
■ Navigate to the ccr/bin directory and locate emCCR. If emCCR exists, OCM has
been configured.
■ If emCCR is not present under the ccr/bin directory, OCM has been installed but
not configured.
If the ccr directory does not exist, Oracle Configuration Manager has not been
included with your Oracle release.
Note: For the middle-tier of Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12
installations, check for the presence of the ccr directory under the
$INST_TOP/ocm/10.1.2/ and $INST_TOP/ocm/10.1.3/
directories.
For the database tier, the ccr directory can be found
under $ORACLE_HOME.I searched the "ccr" at the apps tier:
[appldev1@apps1 ~]$ cd /u01/appldev1
[appldev1@apps1 appldev1]$ ls
DEV1
[appldev1@apps1 appldev1]$ find . -name "ccr"
./DEV1/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/ccr
./DEV1/apps/tech_st/10.1.2/ccr
./DEV1/apps/apps_st/appl/fv/12.0.0/mds/ccr
./DEV1/apps/apps_st/comn/java/classes/oracle/apps/fv/ccrAnd I searched the "ccr" at the database tier:
[root@apps1 ~]# cd /u02/oradev1
[root@apps1 oradev1]# find . -name "ccr"
./DEV1/db/tech_st/11.1.0/ccrWhy is that there are lots of "ccr" directories in the appstier?
And there is also existing on the dbTier.
Where should I install the OCR? in the apps tier or db tier or both?
Thanks a lot
MsK

Hi user;
If you follow Note:Oracle Configuration Manager and E-Business Suite Release 12 Release Notes [ID 406369.1]

Oracle Configuration Manager - No database target

Hi,
i've installed the latest version of the oracle configuration manager (10.3.3.1.0) in my database home and ran the installCCRSQL.sh script successfully against the database instance.
Unfortunately i don't see any database instance target in the metalink system section nor if i run the "emCCR disable_target" command. A "Host", "Oracle Home" and a "Oracle Configuration Manager" target are available.
For the installation, i set the following environment variables:
ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME=/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1
OLDPWD=/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/ccr/bin
ORACLE_SID=MIST
ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
TNS_ADMIN=/oracle/admin/network
HOME=/home/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1
I'm running oracle enterprise linux 5.4 and oracle database 11.1.0.7.
Can anyone tell me why I don't have a database instance target?
Regards,
P. Liniger

Oracle Configuration Manager Server is unavailable (500)

I have a few targets that report configuration to My Oracle Support using Oracle Configuration Manager. Everything was fine until last week, when I noticed that the Last Collection Date wasn't changing. When I try to manually collect, I get the following error:

Anybody else experiencing this same problem? If so, any ideas how to fix it?

Turns out this is expected, as Oracle is rolling out a database upgrade. This notice is posted on MOS:
Configuration Data in Read-Only Mode
We are making improvements to the database that holds configuration data for My Oracle Support. During this upgrade, the Customer Configuration Repository (CCR) is currently in read-only mode. You can view configuration data, but will not be able to upload new configurations or change configuration-related systems attributes. The CCR will remain in read-only mode until the planned My Oracle Support outage completes this weekend.
While CCR is in read-only mode, you will see an error message:
   In the related log file during an automatic attempt to upload a new configuration or for offline Collector users who upload their configuration as a Service Request attachment.
   On pages within My Oracle Support that access the configuration data
   Primarily under the Systems tab
   Sometimes within Patch recommendations and Health Checks
When the CCR returns to update-mode after the outage, your last successful upload will remain in place as the benchmark for determining differences with the current configuration. The next collection you send will update your configuration and then becomes the configuration used for comparisons.
Please file a non-technical Service Request or contact Oracle Support if you need help or have additional questions.

Error in Agent Installation - oracle Configuration Manager

Hi All,
I m trying to install Agent using this file "Linux_Grid_Control_agent_download_10_2_0_2_0". In between the installation "i got one screen - "oracle configuration manager proxy setting" even it is optional and i have not checked it .... it is not going next. i dont want to configure it (but when i give values proxy ip and port, not accept it). When I click the next button getting the message "The connection to oracle Configuration Manager can not be established, please check your network connection and proxy settings and try again"
Please help with this
Thanks
Shiju

Hi Shiju,
Is there any specific reason for using 10.2.0.2 agent. The latest Grid Control agent release is 10.2.0.5. I would suggest you to install the same. Also you can configure the OCM at a later point of time.
Hope it helps

Is Oracle Configuration Manager Available for Hyperion Planning Servers?

The "My Oracle Support" site (https://support.oracle.com) describes the values of installing the Oracle Configuration Manager on servers.
Question: is this available for the Hyperion products or just Oracle databases? If available for Hyperion products, does it add value to tech support?
Any comments would be appreciated.

John
This is partially correct. If you user12136418 are looking for a way to monitor health automatically and get access to web ex session technical support from one console OCM is a great tool. The fact that it is not a thick client in nature nor a windows service makes it ideal for having agents monitor network traffic SNMP and still have all hyperion health monitored without having to run a tool like SCOM. I have been waiting for this tool for a year . Now if only Hyperion would work with IE8. But we all can not have egg in our beer.

Oracle Configuration Manager (OCM) and Software Configuration Manager (SCM)

Hi
Has anyone been able to install OCM(Oracle Configuration Manager, v 10.2.7) and
successful upload new Software Configurations to Metalink 3?
We have managed to download the OCM software (version 10.2.7), version 10.3.0 does not seam to be available
although it is the default suggestion from the download manger for the
"Oracle Configuration Manager Family" products.
We have also been able to install the OCM software in out Windows 2003/Siebel 8.0 development
environment. The connection to Metalink/Oracle configuration server even trough a proxy is
looking fine. We even get confirm/success message for the upload.
The only problem is, we don't event one day after doing the upload, see the new
configuration in Metalink 3.
Has anyone else been able to get this to work?
Axel

We got the configuration upload to work today and it did show up rather fast on Metalink 3. What we ended up having to do, was to install the software twice on the server once in the c:\sba80\gtwysrvr and once in the c:\sba80\siebsrvr directory.
If you are behind a proxy remember to use the -p parameter when calling setupCCR.

How to install Oracle Configuration Manager on laptop without Oracle dist?

I'm sure this is the wrong forum to ask this in, but I can't find a better one.
I was trying to file a support case in My Oracle Support, which I haven't done in a long time. It appears to want me to install "Oracle Configuration Manager". I just have WebLogic installed on this box. I don't even have an Oracle installation. The installation instructions for OCM seem to be very complicated, or I'm just missing the "just do this simple thing" instructions.
I downloaded the installer, and I installed it, but when I try to submit a support case, it seems like it thinks it's not installed. It keeps on complaining that I haven't used a stored configuration, but I don't see any way to create one. I imagine that OCM is supposed to help with that, but it's not doing anything obvious.

Thanks for the link! The "Oracle® Database Installation Guide 11g Release 1 (11.1) for Solaris Operating System" link you provided says:
+6.3 Removing Oracle Configuration Manager+
To uninstall Oracle Configuration Manager, follow these steps:
If the $ORACLE_HOME directory contains a database, remove the Oracle Configuration Manager user and the associated objects from the database by running the following script:
SQL> $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/admin/scripts/dropocm.sql
If the database is a repository for the Oracle E-Business Suite, log in to the database as an SYSDBA user and remove the additional objects from the database by running the following script:
+$ORACLE_HOME/ccr/admin/scripts/ebs_dropccr.sql Oracle_Applications_User+
If the database is a repository for Oracle Grid Control, log in to the database as the SYSMAN user and remove the additional objects from the database by running the following script:
+$ORACLE_HOME/ccr/admin/scripts/dropemrep_collect.sql+
To stop the Scheduler and remove the service or the crontab entry, enter the following command:
+$ORACLE_HOME/ccr/bin/deployPackages -d $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/inventory/core.jar+
Delete the ccr directory by entering the following command:
+$ rm -rf $ORACLE_HOME/ccr+
Oracle Configuration Manager is successfully uninstalled.
However, $ORACLE_HOME/ccr/admin/scripts/dropocm.sql does not exist on our system.
