Problem in using OEM

We have installed oracle 10g on windows 2003 standard edition server. It was successful. we are able to login into database using isqlplus i.e http://hostname:5562/isqlplus.
When we want to access enterprise manager by using http://hostname:5500/em, it display the screen. When we give username and password, if password is wrong, it gives error, if password is ok, nothing comes, same login screen appears. Please help

Did you try logging in as SYS or SYSTEM?

    From what I've read in this forum and in others is
    that the problem is often related to the owner/group
    permissions associated with the bin/nmo and bin/nmb
    files. However I've tried the posted solutions by
    changing the owner/permissions as suggested, but this
    does not help. I get the same error regardless if the
    files are owned by oracle or by root.
    I am not sure which "posted solutions" you had, but this is related to not running root.sh which must be run against the Agent Home.
    1. Stop the Agent (emctl stop agent) while connected to the OS as Oracle user (normally oracle) that installed Grid Control
    2. Connect to the OS as root and run root.sh from Agent ORACLE_HOME (if you do not have root access, your System Admin can do it)
    3. Start the Agent (emctl start agent) while connected to the OS as Oracle user

  • How to use OEM grid control to find any database not in archivelog mode?

    Hello,
    currently we have 130 databases, say, if I want to pick out any database currently NOT in archivelog mode, is there a quick way to find out ?
    by using OEM grid control
    or
    some trick similar,
    but really don't need to check each database manually.
    thank you very much!

    This query works in 12c - please run as SYSMAN.
    It is based on undocumented assumptions though +( AND key_value = 'NOARCHIVELOG')+.
      SELECT *
      FROM SYSMAN.MGMT$GROUP_DERIVED_MEMBERSHIPS O ,
        SYSMAN.MGMT$TARGET T ,
        sysman.MGMT$AVAILABILITY_CURRENT st
      WHERE
      o.member_target_type     IN ('oracle_database', 'rac_database')
      AND ( t.target_type           ='rac_database'
      OR (t.target_type             ='oracle_database'
      AND t.type_qualifier3        != 'RACINST'))
      AND o. member_target_guid     = t.target_guid
      AND t.target_guid             = st.target_guid
      AND st.availability_status    = 'Target Up'
      AND ( EXISTS
        (SELECT *
        FROM sysman.mgmt$metric_current i
        WHERE I.TARGET_GUID = O.MEMBER_TARGET_GUID
        AND metric_name     = 'archFull'
        AND Metric_Column   = 'archTotal'
        AND metric_label    = 'Archive Area'
        AND column_label    = 'Total Archive Area (KB)'
        AND key_value       = 'NOARCHIVELOG'
        ));Another way to achieve the goal is to push extended metrics (SELECT LOG_MODE FROM V$DATABASE) on each DB, and monitor the values they return to the repository. This is an example for a (slightly) different problem - http://iiotzov.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/how-to-use-the-new-oem-12c-metric-extensions-to-enforce-enterprise-wide-custom-policies .

  • Backup Failure using OEM (Oracle 9i)

    Backup Failure using OEM
    I have oracle 9i (windows 2000 server)
    I tried to make a fullbackup using OEM, it gives me NO error messages
    I got result file with 890 MB (my Db is not huge),
    but when I go back to the JOBs in OEM I found the status of the job FAILED
    I tried to do the same thing using incremental backup level 0, but I got the same result
    any Idea why the job didn't complete successfully
    thanx in advance

    Here is the deal.
    I need to be able to work in the OEM for my class. (Oracle DBA in Training) It is a significant part of my grade to be able to find the required help through forums like these to help me get the backup/recovery process to work through the OEM. My books deal with the OEM in a Win2000 Pro/Server environment, and don't take into consideration the variances in XP Pro. My install works great, other than I am receiving a "Fail" on my OEM Backups under Jobs. It further explains that I do not have the proper permissions to perform the backup job that was created. My instructor is completely hands off when it comes to help. So if anyone has run into this problem and been successful in fixing the problem without using a different utility. Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance,

  • How i use OEM 12c to monitor Microsoft Active directory.

    Hi,
    How i use OEM 12c to monitor Microsoft Active directory.Please assist me on this.
    Thanks,
    Sagar

    Hi,
    The fundamental problem with this scenario is that you have non-failover capable modules in a failover chassis - think of the ASA failover pair as one device and the IPS modules as two completely separate devices.
    Then, as already mentioned, add only the primary ASA. (The secondary will never be passing traffic in standby mode so it's not actually needed in MARS) Then, with the first IPS module you can add it as a module of the ASA or as a standalone device (MARS doesn't care). With the second IPS module the only option is to add it as a separate device anyway.
    In a failover scenario the ASA's swap IP's but the IPS's don't so whereas you'll only ever get messages from the active ASA you'll get messages from both IPS IP's depending on which one happens to be in the active ASA at the time.
    Don't forget that you have to manually replicate all IPS configuration every time you make a change.
    HTH
    Andrew.

  • Cancelling job using OEM

    1)If a OWB process is run as a job using OEM and if it is interrupted or aborted due to database shutdown or I try to remove job using OEM, I run into a problem.
    When the database was disconnected, the job that was running (and associated with a OWB process package) leaves something like a lock on the package. I am not able to recompile that package.
    2) When I removed a job using OEM, it shows the status as deleting, but that never completes.
    How do I identify and remove the locks if any and clean it up?
    Thanks,
    Tapas

    Tapas,
    Your questions are really about OEM/Intelligent Agent rather than OWB. The OEM forum is here Enterprise Manager
    Regarding #1, from OEM doc: "If the Agent goes down for any period of time while the job is running, the Agent will return a job status message "Agent was down." This does not affect job operation, but merely indicates that the repeating job did not run as scheduled during the period the Agent/node was down." Could this be your case?
    Regarding #2, I found this thread "Pending Deletion (job)" on OEM Forum, please see if it helps you Pending Deletion (job)

  • Anyone using OEM for scheduling backups?

    I'd like to see a poll for the number of users using OEM for taking database backups. Had some interesting conversations with some colleagues via social media and it seems like some DBAs don't trust OEM for their backups even though the feature works IMO.
    Are you using OEM to do backups?
    Edited by: DBA on May 3, 2012 1:02 PM

    I have 91 scheduled recurring backup jobs running through OEM 12c BP1. They work quite well. I've only noticed a few problems and nitpicks:
    1) Occasionally, for unknown reasons, a backup job against a newly-added database target will fail stating that the backup cannot be run since the database is closed. The database is not closed, it's up and running fine. Changing the backup job to run using SYS as SYSDBA credentials resolves this problem.
    2) Identification of failed backups is not as customizable as I would like. For example, if I have a full "backup database plus archivelog" running, and during the course of that backup an archivelog backup runs and deletes archived logs, OEM will report that the backup job has failed since RMAN throws an error about not being able to backup an archivelog it expected to find. I dealt with this by adding SKIP INACCESSIBLE to the backup statement. I'm not totally comfortable about that but I monitor for offline datafiles so I consider this only a minimal risk. Our custom backup scripts used to catch this warning and ignore it.
    3) It's really annoying that, after creating a backup job through the target Availability -> Schedule Backup tool, I cannot then run a 'Create Like' against that backup job to create a nearly identical one against a different database target. You have to schedule each of them from the Schedule Backup tool. Clicky clicky clicky clicky.
    4) A backup job created through the 'Schedule Backup' tool has a job type of 'Database Backup', therefore when the job fails a high-availability incident is created, so you can configure incident rules to receive notification of this event. This is good. Unfortunately a backup job created from the Jobs page has a job type of 'RMAN Script' does NOT create an incident on job failure out of the box. I've had difficulty configuring incident rules to catch failures for RMAN Script job types. This is not good.
    5) The repeating schedule options for jobs are limited compared even to something like cron. I can schedule a job for a day of the week, or a day of the month, but cannot easily schedule a job for "the first Tuesday of each month". This can be worked around.
    6) After creating and submitting a backup job through the Schedule Backup tool, you cannot edit the RMAN script without recreating the job. You can only edit the RMAN script before submitting the job. I deal with this by having my backups run stored scripts in the recovery catalog, and make the changes there if I need to change something.
    7) It is very annoying that if I 'stop' a repeating job (instead of suspend), there is no way to resume that job. It has to be recreated. This is my own user error -- I just don't click the stop button. Not OEM's fault but I'd rather not even have that button.
    8) No ability to sequence jobs. You can sequence steps within a job, but then the entire job succeeds or fails as a unit. If you want to back up database A then immediately back up database B afterwards, you have to create a multi-task job. The multi-task job has the same problem as item #4 above such that it does not create a "backup failed" incident when the backup fails.
    Even with all of these gripes, I am quite pleased with the backups I have running through OEM.

  • How to use OEM to run a script against many targets and send result by emai

    Is there a way to use OEM to query the RMAN backup against many targets (databases) and have all the results send to you by a single email?
    The script is :
    SELECT a.instance_name, b.session_key, b.session_recid, b.session_stamp, b.command_id,
    b.status, b.start_time, b.time_taken_display, b.input_type,
    b.output_device_type, b.input_bytes_display, b.output_bytes_display,
    b.output_bytes_per_sec_display
    FROM
    v$instance a, V$RMAN_BACKUP_JOB_DETAILS b WHERE ( b.start_time > (SYSDATE - 30) ) order
    by b.start_time
    Thanks.

    Are you using a RMAN catalog? If not, you can used UDM's (this will be messy w/o a RMAN catalog) for what you want to do.
    What I started out doing was....
    You can create a UDM and push that UDM out to the targets you want. The problem with UDM's, is you can only pull 1 or 2values. I started down this same path and wrote a sql to concatenate the data into one value, such as
    SELECT '|'||input_type||'|'||status||'|'||start_time||'|'||end_time||'|'||ROUND(elapsed_seconds,2)||'|'||time_taken_display||'|'
    FROM v$rman_backup_job_details
    WHERE (INPUT_TYPE, START_TIME)
    IN
    ( SELECT input_type, MAX(START_TIME)
    FROM v$rman_backup_job_details
    GROUP BY INPUT_TYPE
    AND INPUT_TYPE = 'DB FULL';
    Do not put any warning/critical thresholds in the UDM and just let OEM Agent gather the data and pull it back into the SYSMAN repository.
    You can then look at this view, SYSMAN. MGMT$METRIC_DETAILS to find the correct SQL to pull out the data you need. This view is made up of a 4 way union between 4 sql's. Once you find the SQL you need, then you can pull this information out and into a custom table of your own.
    Once you have data into another table, you will then have to extract the concatenated string out, parse it out and report on it. This is where I stopped and said there has to be a better way.
    I then thought about it and the RMAN catalog has all this, assuming you are using a RMAN Catalog.
    I wrote a piece of dynamic sql to loop through the rman catalog to pull this out into a historical table and store the data. Then I can report on it from there. If you have a RMAN catalog, this works much better.
    I also use UDM's to use OEM as a data extract tool to pull the number of archivelogs and bytes my databases create on an hourly basis. I pull 2 values, bytes and # of logs. So this works well with UDM's, don't have to concatenate a bunch of values and then parse it back out again.
    I push this UDM to all databases, and have it run hourly. Then daily, I extract this information into a custom table and then use analytic functions to determine how much space is needed on the db servers for archivelogs for a 24 hour time frame. This helps with sizing our log destinations and gives us legitimate reports for Storage teams.
    I can also build reports on how many archive logs are generated on a daily, weekly, monthly basis per database. Good for analysis and charge back methods.

  • Using OEM Console to Manage OAI Infrastructure

    For those of you who have not tried to use OEM Console to manage the OAI components, I'd recommend it. It saves having look for the latest log files, and the Tracking Fields functionality is excellent.
    However, my question is "what about adapters that are not placed on the Hub server, but on the target application server instead. Can OEM Console manage those too?"
    My suspicion is that it can't, but can anyone confirm this?
    Cheers
    Ian

    Rupesh,
    Try a search on Metalink for "vdrRegistry.VdruLoader" (without quotes).
    I think your problem is that your CLASSPATH should include $ORACLE_HOME\jlib (where the file oembase-9_0_2.jar resides). This jar file contains VdruLoader.
    Also check your oemctl.bat file. This is found in $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
    I've known Universal Installer (especially when installing OAI 4.1 on a Windows machine) to add extra slashes to the paths. e.g.
    SET JLIBROOT=D:\\oracle\\ora9ias\\jlib
    should be SET JLIBROOT=D:\oracle\ora9ias\jlib
    Hope this helps.

    The warranty for the iPhone is not and has never been International.
    Warranty and support are ONLY valid in the country of origin.  The only exception is the EU where the entire EU is treated as one country.
    If the device will be used in India, buy it in India.
    An unlocked iPhone will work on any supported GSM carrier world wide.  The LTE portion of a US purchased, unlocked iPhone is unlikely to work outside North America as it does not support the appropriate bands used in other countries.

  • Problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on windows application ("specified type is not valid ")

    Hi
    I am having problem on using Crystal Report Viewer on one of my windows application.
    I am not sure how to put the Crystal Report Viewer 11 Control onto the tool box.
    I could found a Crystal Report Viewer control on my computer, but it is version 8.5.
    I have also found another one which is Called Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, i don't think it is the one I can use. As when I try to load a dummy report on to the Crytal ActiveX Report Viewer, It return an error. "specified type is not valid"
    Please see the Code sample below.
    private sub loadReport()
         Dim r as New ReportDocument
         'v is the name of the Crystal ActiveX Report Viewer Control
         r.Load("C:\Report1.rtp")
         v.ReportSource(r) <---It throw error on this line.
    End Sub
    Could you give me some advice about what have I done wrong, How to check if I have set up the Crystal Report Component correctly in my Visual Studio 2005 Standard edition.
    Thanks in advances.
    Many thanks
    Chi

    VS 2005 Standard and Express editions do not come with Crystal Reports; only the Professional and higher editions will have CR bundled. However, I believe you can purchase CR XI R2 Developer and it will give you the components you need to create a VS .NET 2005 application using the Standard edition.

    If I do that, can I move all of the purchased apps and songs to the new Apple account?
    Also, will sharing one Apple ID account with two devices cause problems with using messaging and FaceTime?

    Sharing an iCloud account between two devices can be done without causing issues with iMessage and FaceTime, just go into Settings for each of these functions and designate separate points of contact (i.e. phone number only, or phone number and unique email address).  While that works, you'll then face the problem where a phone call to one iPhone will ring both if on the same Wi-Fi network -- but again, that can be avoided by changing each phone's settings.
    Rather than do all that, don't fight it -- use separate IDs for iCloud.  You can still use a common ID for iTunes purchases (the ID for purchases and iCloud do not have to be the same) or you can use Family Sharing to share purchases from a primary Apple account.
