This issue was caused by root user cannot su to oracle user.
The W/A is to disable ypbind service and run createOracle.sh to make the oracle user a local one.
How to disable ypbind? issue following command based on your host env,
service ypbind stop
or
/etc/init.d/ypbind stop
More details, pls check Bug 16416238 - manager installer should add a prereq check that root can su to oracle user

OVM Manager 3.3.1 Installation Fails

I am having a hard time figuring this out. I am trying to install OVM Manager 3.3.1 on Oracle Linux release 7. I have configured the host file with the IP address and the Name of the host. I have setup the IPTABLE firewall ports. I ran createOracle.sh script successfully. I can ping the host by name and IP address, I can ping outside addresses. When going through the OVM Manager install I get through the point where I choose "1-for installation" and then it says that its retrieving MySQL Database 5.6 and then just goes back to a command prompt. The logs do not give any insight on what went wrong. Not sure where else I can try other than starting over again and installing Oracle Linux 6 and trying to install OVM Manager from there.

by any chance do you have existing installation of mysql to the machine
you are installing OVMM?
another hint is to disable SELinux.
I checked the documentation and OEL 7 is not in the list of supported
OS. I would not try to run any Oracle product on unsupported
configuration and based on this I would advise you run the installation
on OEL 6 updated with the latest level.
Hope this helps,
A.

Connection problem to the OVM Manager 3.0.3 Console

My OVM Manager 3.0.3 installation was smooth on top of Oracle Linux 6.0, not even with a single error after taking care of some prerequisite warning stuff at the beginning.
After the installation, it displayed some info on how to connect to the OVM Manager Console.
http://ovmmanager:7001/ovm/console
https://ovmmanager:7002/ovm/console
But, not only neither address seems to work but also the server opens neither port.
I have no problem remotely logging into the shell via ssh.
Trying "telnet ovmmanager 7001" and "telnet ovmmanager 7002" isn't connecting.
Also, Oracle is up and running.
# ps -ef |grep XE |wc -l
31
# ps -ef |grep pmon
oracle 1610 1 0 02:28 ? 00:00:02 xe_pmon_XE
I rebooted it couple of times but the same thing.
Could someone please let me know where I should start?
Thanks.

Hi,
The reason is the /etc/rc.d/init.d/ovmm shell script. It tries to start the weblogic with oracle user. The oracle user doesnt have permission and it fails with a timeout
if [ $action = run ]; then
logger "Starting the Oracle VM Manager application."
echo -n "Starting Oracle VM Manager"
nohup su - oracle -c "$USER_MEM_ARGS DOMAIN_PRODUCTION_MODE=true JAVA_OPTIONS=\"-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=127.0.0.1:8453,server=y,suspend=n -da:org.apache.myfaces.trinidad\" /u01/app/oracle/ovm-manager-3/machine1/base_adf_domain/startWebLogic.sh &" > /dev/null
RETVAL="$?"
fi
change it to
if [ $action = run ]; then
logger "Starting the Oracle VM Manager application."
echo -n "Starting Oracle VM Manager"
nohup su - -c "$USER_MEM_ARGS DOMAIN_PRODUCTION_MODE=true JAVA_OPTIONS=\"-Djava.awt.headless=true -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=127.0.0.1:8453,server=y,suspend=n -da:org.apache.myfaces.trinidad\" /u01/app/oracle/ovm-manager-3/machine1/base_adf_domain/startWebLogic.sh &" > /dev/null

Installation Issues for Management Agent on AIX

I am having installation issues with Oracle Management Agent Install using OUI....
I have done the following:
i)     download AIX_Grid_Control_agent_download_10_2_0_1.zip to aix machine.
ii)     unzip , it creates aix directory.
iii)     unzip "oui_aix.jar " , which is available under aix/oui/
iv)     pl unjar "oui_aix.jar " , ( jar -xvf oui_aix.jar )
v)     set AGENT_HOME=/oracle/WD1/oem/
vi)     chmod –R 777 * from /oracle/WD1/oem/
vii)     invoke ./runInstaller from aix/oui/Disk1/
When I invoke runInstaller it asks me for Additional Management Service install but after first screen does check ask Oracle Home and then goes intsall OUI and never asks for OMS and OMS port etc..
Can I install the Management agent through OUI... What are the steps ?
Thanks,
Atul

I deinstalled the OUI and again re-installed.. but still I cannot get it working.. That is why I was looking that if somebody came accross the same issue... Why it does not ask the OMS page at all.. If some body has installed Management Agent on AIX through OUI pl. respond.
Thanks

OVM Manager cluster construct issue

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to build a demo insfrastructure for Oracle VM for SPARC with Oracle VM Manager for managment. Here is an overview of my infrastructure:

- 1 ESX VM hosting Oracle VM Manager with Oracle Linux 5 as OS.

I try to built a HA environment using ovm manager. Every thing is good until I try to add server to server pool. Add the first server is OK, but it stays on error state because of a cluster construct error.

The second server can't be add to the pool until the first one issue is fixed! I'm confuse. Have I use good version for each package? I'm looking for a compatibility matrix between Manager, osv agent and ovm server for sparc, If any one can redirect me to a relevant web page ou doc!!!
Somebody can point me to a solution?
Thank a lot!

On Solaris 10 platform...
We found that we could correct the problem by extracting the SAR file OCL10264.SAR from the client DVD into the client directory /oracle/client/10x_64 (which we had to create) and execute "ln -s instantclient_10202 instantclient" to create the symbolic link for the instantclient directory. Then the installation continued successfully.

I had similar issues where it got stuck at installing Database Software. I had to install
yum install zip
yum install xz-devel.x86_64
Reboot and start install again. If it fails again try the -n switch. i.e. ./runInstaller -n
Also make sure you have run the ./createOracle.sh script, before running the installer, which creates the required environment, groups and users.

Death of OVM manager. How to recover?

I found myself in a situation where my OVM-manager server got hosed and I had to rebuild it (disks died, and since it's a test environment, no backup of the host exists).
Unfortunately I had previously set up an OVM pool and repository.
I re-mounted a repository NFS share that was in use on the now dead OVM-manager installation. That worked, and it inserted itself into the Storage->Fileservers list
I attempted to reload this share as a repository on my new OVM-manager installation, it told me I couldn't because it belonged elsewhere.
Now that I try to delete it from the list of File Servers, it tells me I can't because
"OVMRU_002005E repo01 - Cannot delete NAS or fileSystem with a repository on it."
This was despite the fact that it is not even recognised a repository on my new OVM manager box.
So I went a deleted the share on the NFS device, but the error persists.
Attempted to rediscover the share, and since it can no longer find it, that doesn't help the new OVM manager decide that is an "ex-NFS mount"
Attempted to re-try deleting the file server mount, but it refuses to go away and out of the list, even though it is not even recognised as a repository on my new OVM manager install.
Seems like OVM has some big issues regarding handling ownership.
On a separate issue, I tried taking ownership of some OVM boxes tied to the old and dead OVM-manager, and I was rebuffed there too.
I went and reinstalled the OVM servers as well.
it seems like the death of an OVM-management server means the death of the entire architecture, including the repository and all files, and forces a complete rebuild.
Any idea how to fix this?

I'm no expert, but I know that the OVM Manager install has an option to force a specific UUID, so the manager will look "exactly like" the original one, and everything works again. I'm not sure that this scenario is applicable to you, since I'm fairly new to all this. But perhaps you can determine what the old UUID was (you may have written it down, or it's stored in your cluster data somewhere, and re-install with that UUID. I think this is mentioned in the docs, and there are postings here about it.

Unable to Boot OVM Manager ISO from iLOM

Hi all,
I am trying to boot the OVM Manager ISO on a Fire X4150 using the console redirection but all that comes up is "Grub" and allows no further interaction. I've tried downloading the ISO multiple times, using an older version of the OVM installation ISO, and upgraded the iLOM firmware to the latest and greatest. When I use the OVM Server ISO, it boots up normally and starts the installation process. The machine that I am running the remote console from and has the ISO image is in the same rack as the server where I would want to install OVM Manager.
Getting physical access to pop a DVD in the drive is limited so really trying to figure out a way I can do this remotely.
Any one else have this issue and knows of a workaround?
Thanks,
Peter

FYI, update the FIRWARE on your Sun Fire X4150s. I was on a project a couple weeks ago and we where unable to use the ILOM to mount ISO files. After 10 hours of FUN, we discovered that its was a BUG! Update each server to the latest FIRMWARE, i.e. download the FIRWARE, and update each node from its web portal.
Sun x86 is FUN!

How to start virtual OVM Manager and restore server pool which hosts it?

It had to happen... the day I migrate our OVM Manager from an ESX host into an Oracle VM, we have a massive NetApp outage, and everything fails to come back. As a result of having lock errors when trying to start any VMs I noted on the forum various solutions and ended up following the steps concerning stopping ovs-agent and removal of /etc/ovs-agent/db/* on all the servers. Next I re-added the repo to all the servers using repos.py, but of course now none of the servers are in a pool so the --list command shows them as [R] rather than [*], and the /OVS directory is not yet mapped. So the next stage, according to the instructions which I am following, describes using the 'Restore' option in the OVM Manager GUI. Given that /OVS is not mounted and all of the servers are now config-less, I can't see how I can start the OVM Manager VM to get to the aforementioned "restore" option...
Thank Jeebus I kept the ESX copy of OVM manager on (but powered down), as I was able to fire it up and do the restore, and now everything is hunky dory. However, this is our Dev platform and I was going to build the Prod platform and deploy OVM Manager straight into the OVM architecture via the template, rather than having it on ESX, but this issue on the Dev install has made me think twice about the mobius nature of managing the VM architecture from within the VM architecture...
I am assuming I am missing some sort of commandline knowledge, so... given:
- empty db directory
- root repos [R] on all servers
- as yet unmapped /OVS
...how to get the server pool up and get something back into /OVS, and then start my OVM Manager VM so I can 'restore'? Is it even possible? because if it isn't, I'll be blowed if the Prod OVM manager is going to get deployed like this...
And no, there's no money in the budget for extra tin just to sit there running the OVM Manager and nothing else.
TIA

Still nobody seems to know of how to create a server pool on the CLI (outside of OVM Manager) though...There is no way to create a server pool on the CLI without Oracle VM Manager. You either need to use the Web UI of the Manager, or use the ovmcli command-line tool. Both of those require Oracle VM Manager to be running.
However, once the Pool is created, you do not need the Manager to be running to perform simple tasks like starting/stopping guests. That can be done with the xm command-line tool.
I agree with you about running VM Manager as a guest of the Oracle VM Server: I actually don't recommend this in production, unless you have at least two Server Pools. Then you can have the Manager of Pool A hosted by Pool B and vice-versa. Most often however, I recommend a completely independent Manager machine, either physical or hosted on a separate virtualization stack.

Installation issue on opensuse 11

Hey All, Im a Windows guy still struggling with Linux set-upsso take it easy on me! :) and Im having a hard time getting blaze installed and running. This is what Ive done so far. I've successfully set-up the latest copy of openSuse11 64 bit version with: Tomcat 6.0.16 (Tested and running) ANT 1.7 JAVA SDK & JDK 6 Junit (ant-junit, junit, junit-javadoc, junit-manual, libcppunit-1_12-0) Downloaded both blazeds.war and blazeds_src_3-0-0-544.zip From Tomcat Manager I uploaded the blazeds.war file successfully. I unzipped the zip file into root/blazeds and from a command prompt ran ant. These are the errors Im getting: * [taskdef] Could no load definitions from resource net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties. It could not be found. (Repeats about a dozen times) * BUILD FAILED * /root/blazeds/build.xml:445: The following error occurred while executing this line: * /root/blazeds/resources/fds-ajax-bridge/build.xml:52 Problem: failed to create task or type if Cause: The name is undefined. * Action: Check the spelling * Action: Check that any custom tasks/types have been declared * Action: Check that any <presetdef>/<mac rodef> declarations have taken place.

Brad

Hi Alex,
Sorry I've been away and just got back. Presently I'm working from jrun4 and would like to use blazeds instead. Once my projects get going I would need the ability to use my customers already made linux/tomcat boxes and just plug in blaze.
I look forward to your answer.
Brad

Are you just trying to install and run BlazeDS? Why do you need to build from source?

Forms 10g Installation issue on windows 7 Professional service pack 1

hi
I am trying to install oracle forms 10g 64 bit windows 7 Professional service pack 1 ..
Below are 2 files that i am using ..
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip (626,122,752 bytes)
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk2.zip (236,880,881 bytes)
But it failed but the error is ..
Checking operating system version: must be 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 6.1 Failed <<<<
just wondering if there are any workaround ..

Christian is right - Forms 10g R2 (version 10.1.2.0.2) is not certified for installation on Windows 7. You must apply a Forms 10g R2 patch to bring the version to 10.1.2.3.0 for it to be certified. You must have a My Oracle Support account to obtain the patch.
Now, to your question - is there a workaround; the answer is yes. There are known issues with this installer. I'll list them and their workaround.
1. The Oracle installer checks for a specific set of Windows versions rather than check for a minimum Windows version.
Workaround: Right-click the Installer and select Properties. Click the Compatibility tab and click the checkbox: Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP3).
2. The Oracle Installer can't detect Windows Managed Virtual Memory (VM).
Workaround: You must temporarily change the Virtual Memory settings and specify specific Initial and Maximum sizes. See this Microsoft article for more information on changing VM settings. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/change-the-size-of-virtual-memory
This change will require you to restart your computer. After you have successfully installed Oracle Forms 10g, you can restore the original VM settings.
3. The Oracle installer MUST be installed as an "Administrator".
Workaround: Windows 7 uses "Least privileged user" so you must right-click the Installer and select the Compatibility tab. Click the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.
4. Not a Oracle installer issue, but you will have to install the 32-bit version of the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) (1.6.0 - not 1.7.0) because Oracle Forms is a 32-bit application so it will not be able to use the 64-bit JRE.
Run the Oracle installer and it should now install succesfully.
