Problem using nmumigr8 to migrate Intelligent Agent to 9i

I have an Intelligent Agent running under 8.1.7.
I wish to migrate to 9i.
When I use the 'nmumigr8' utility to upgrade the Agent, it fails always with the following:
===========================
F:\oracle\ora90\BIN>nmumigr8 -source_home f:\oracle\oas9i -verbose
Agent NT service name is not set
NMS-00859: Error renaming f:\oracle\ora90\bin\dbsnmp.exe to
f:\oracle\ora90\bin\dbsnmpxx.exe (error code = 7).
If renaming dbsnmpxx to dbsnmp, or vppdcxx to vppdc failed, rename the file manually.
===========================
I don't understand why it is trying to rename dbsnmp.exe (especially as the agent for 9i is called agntsrvc.exe.)
The ORACLE_HOME is set correctly to the target Oracle Home (f:\oracle\ora90).

What's your 9i version in four decimal places?
There's no direct upgrade path for 9.2.0.4 and lower.
either
9.0.1.3 (or lower) -> 9.0.1.4 -> 10.2.0 -> 11.1
or
9.2.0.3 (or lower) -> 9.2.0.8 -> 11.1

Problems using the workbench to migrate mysql to Oracle

Hi.
I have ran into couple of problems using Oracle workbench
migration tool.
I was wondering if anyone out there has any insight.
1. If a date field in a mysql table has a default (let's say
9999-12-31) the script for oracle table will also have
9999-12-31 as a default field. This doesn't seem to work in
Oracle because Oracle expects to see something like to_date
('9999-12-31','yyyy-mm-dd'). I couldn't find a way to modify
that in the Workbench.
2. If a numeric field is defined in the mysql database as
smallint, the workbench creates a corresponding Oracle field
as num(250), while oracle would expect the presicion no more
than 38. Again, I couldn't find a way to fix it in the
workbench.
3. If I'm attempting to modify a oracle field's parameters in
the workbench,it won't let me to move to another table
without asking "do you want to save the changes" and won't
move on unless I click on "No".
I would appreciate any comments on these issues

Check your trash can on the desktop. The old version is automatically moved to the trashcan. You should be able to move it from the trashcan back to the Apps folder within the iTunes folder. The update that was pushed out was for iBooks to work with iOS 7 not iPhone 5. iOS 7 was released today.

Has Anyone gotten the Intelligent Agent to work???

I have Oracle installed and all is well except for a few minor
problems that I think the Intelligent Agent will solve. Has
anyone gotten this to work on RedHat 6.0 with Oracle
Enterprise Edition 8.0.5.1??? I was able to get it to work
under Oracle8 SE, but I need EE for the ConText Cartridge.
I have gotten to the point where I can get the dbsnmp process
running, but OEM cannot talk to it.
Please help

I'm having the same problem. Does anyone out there have a
solution?
I am running RedHat Linux 6.0 straight out of the box. The only
change I made was to set the kernel parameters according to the
release notes and recompile the kernel.
P.S. Oracle deserves our thanks for providing free developer
licenses to so many of its products, but this is the buggiest
install I've ever seen in my 12 years of working with their
products. Didn't anyone from Oracle test the install? This
problem and the zero length libnjni8.so file are the real
doozies.
I've followed the release notes and installation guide to the
letter and have found several documentation / distribution bugs
that should have leapt out at the first person who tried it.

Intelligent Agent in 10g?

Hi,
we are currently setting up a DB 10g. On the old 9i system we used to start the intelligent agent among other oracle services. Now the Suse orarun script fails to start the agent because neither agentctl is in $ORACLE_HOME/bin nor is "lsnrctl dbsnmp_start" a valid statement anymore.
Is just the orarun script outdated or do we have to install the agent on our own? Or is it even completely obsolete since 10g?
Thanks for your help.

Can any one help me please ?

Intelligent Agent and TCL7.5

Hello, following the Oracle8i release notes I've compiled and
installed TCL7.5 for use with the Oracle Intelligent Agent.
Once libtcl7.5.a is built and copied to the
$ORACLE_HOME/network/lib directory, can the rest of the
installation in /usr/local be deleted? I have 8.0 already
installed and have no use for 7.5 other than for Oracle.
Thanks,

Oracle 8i Intelligent Agent Service problem

Hi!
We successfully installed Oracle 8i (8.1.7 ee) on Intel P-IV (Xeon) server running Windows 2000 Advanced server (Service Pack 2). It was working properly until now. There was no problem in implementing the tricks useful in installation. After that, database service "OracleService<DBName>" presented problem by not automatically starting on computer startup but it was tamed by "Oradim" command added to startup folder.
All was going smoothly for about a month now but when I rebooted the server PC yesterday, the service "Oracle<HomeName>Agent" failed to start. Along with it the DataGatherer and TNSListener services also failed (Only db service OracleService<DBName> starts but very very slowly). The Windows Event Viewer descriped the problme for Agent service as ,"The Oracle<HomeName>Agent service terminated with the following error: %%3221356551 ". The Event ID is always 7023 for this error. The rest of services just don't give any error codes. It is also stated that nothing has been installed/Uninstalled on this PC in the last several days and no configration changes, in tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora, listener.ora, win registry has been made. The TCP/IP configration are intact and NTFS folder and file rights are properly defined.
Starting the service using "Net Start <service_name>" also failed with the message,"System error 7 has occured, Storage control blocks will be destroyed".
Searching online, I also performed some steps in correcting the problem like backup and delete all *.q, snmp_ro.ora, snmp_rw.ora, services.ora files. But to no help. The log files in Oracle_Home\network\logs also dont record the problem even after setting the trace level to Admin or 16. The Agent service simply refuses to start...
Reinstalling Oracle (over existing one, not first removing it altogether. We simply cann't do this now for data loss!!!) or just the Intelligent Agent itsself using univeral installer also fails at the end when it tries to start the intellegent Agent Service Oracle<HomeName>Agent. This time the error described is "O/S error in starting service".
Is this something to do with Xeon server coz the same Oracle 8i is installed much before than this on another P-IV server (not xeon) running the same Op system and it never presented us this problem todate. Its also worth mentioning that this problem occured before as well, on the second day we installed Oracle 8i the first time on Xeon. Since there was no data then, we simply removed oracle, cleared registry and started all over again BUT now it cann't be done.
Any help shall be highly appreciated.
With Regards, Rashid.

Thanks for stopping by this thread. Problem has been resolved from another forum. Actually c:\oracle folder was accessable to administrator only, when I added 'Everyone' to the permission list as well, everything started fine. Allowing 'Everyone' to this folder is dangerous but its working for now :)

INTELLIGENT AGENT PROBLEM RECOVERY ON NT

제품 : ORACLE SERVER
작성날짜 : 1997-12-16
The Oracle Intelligent Agent 7.3.3 on NT is self-configuring and
requires TCP/IP fully configured on the NT system.
The Agent's startup algorithm:
When the agent is started, the startup process reads the LISTENER.ORA,
TNSNAMES.ORA and NT REGISTRY. It compares the values stored in each location.
If any discrepencies exist, the agent service will either not start
or service discovery will not occur.
Starting the Intelligent Agent:
1. Verify the Sqlnet configuration files are correct:
- All sid entries in the LISTENER.ORA must have valid TCP/IP service
descriptors defined in the TNSNAMES.ORA file.
- The TNSNAMES.ORA should not contain service descriptors for local
sides not defined in the LISTENER.ORA file.
- TCP/IP must be fully configured on the system.
2. NT 4.0: Click on START->SETTINGS->CONTROL PANEL->SERVICES.
Highlight the service ORACLEAGENT. Click on the START button.
NT 3.51: Find the MAIN program group.
Click on CONTROL PANEL->SERVICES.
Highlight the service ORACLEAGENT. Click on the START button.
***NOTE: If the 7.3.3 agent will not start, verify the OEM version
is not 1.4.
If the version is 1.4, install the 8.0.3 Intelligent Agent.
Agent troubleshooting tips:
1. Verify TCP/IP is configured correctly.
- At a dos prompt, type HOSTNAME.
This is the actual configured TCP/IP HOSTNAME of the system.
- Verify the hostname resolved by the agent. The DBSNMP.ADDRESS
parameter in the ORANT/network/snmp_rw.ora contains this
information.
If the file does not contain the actual hostname, TCP/IP is not
properly configured on the system or the network.
2. Correcting TCP/IP configuration problems:
- Edit the WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts and lmhosts files.
(*NOTE: If these files have never been used, only sample files will
exist in the directory. Either rename or copy the .sam files
to just the file name with no extention.)
- Follow the example below (replace the information in brackets
with the actual host information for that system.):
HOSTS file:
<122.111.111.111> <hostname>
LMHOSTS file:
<122.111.111.111. <netbios name or hostname> #PRE
- Delete the ORANT\network\agent\*.q and SERVICES.ORA files.
(*NOTE: The *.q files hold information about jobs and events.
Do not delete these files without first removing all jobs
and events registered against this agent.)
- Delete the $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin\SNMP_RO.ORA and
SNMP_RW.ORA files.
- Restart the agent at a DOS prompt:
NET START ORACLEAGENT
3. Check the NT EVENT VIEWER->APPLICATIONS->LOG for any errors
starting the DBSNMP process.
4. Check the ORANT/NETWORK/LOG/NMICONF.LOG file for other possible
errors.
5. If using NTFS, check permissions to the \orant\network directory
structure.

Oracle Intelligent Agent Exe encountered a problem and needed to close

Whenever the server is rebooted I get the error "Oracle Intelligent Agent Executable encountered a problem and needed to close". The agent won't start, and I found a work around that included deleting files from the network/agent and admin folders, then restarting the agent. This works, however the next time the server reboots I have to go through all of this again. Any ideas why this keeps occurring?
Also, what does this agent do? I've read through some documentation and can't quite tell if I actually need it started. Do you use this agent to only remotely monitor/administer through OEM? I'm really confused and could use some insight. All my process appear to be working fine.

Because of the error message I guess you are on Windows and database version is lower than 10g (by the way it's always a good idea to tell the environment, because Oracle runs on different platforms in different versions).
... 'encountered a problem and needed to close' is generic Windows error message with millions of possible reasons. So it's not possible to find remotely a solution. You are right, Intelligent Agent is a counterpart of OEM, but outside production environments rarely needed. I recommend you change the service properties from 'automatic' to 'manual' in control panel. So it does not start at reboot time.

Solved Intelligent Agent (dbsnmp) link problems on RH 6.0

I just spent a good chunk of time getting Oracle Enterprise Manager Intelligent Agent to link properly on Red Hat 6.0. I figured I'd post a summary here to help someone else with the same problem.
Problem summary:
Running "lsnrctl dbsnmp_start" didn't report any errors but "lsnrctl dbsnmp_status" showed that the agent was not running. (And no log files were written.) Investigation revealed that the $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbsnmp execuable was missing, so I figured I didn't have Intelligent Agent installed. Well, it was installed but the link failed, so dbsnmp was never created.
Solution:
Patch one of the make files and quickly run a link. Here is the patch with instructions at the top:

Actually the agent needs libtcl7.5.a only.
The version of TCL in Redhat 6.X is 8.*. Those can't work with Oracle's agent. So, go to ftp://ftp.scriptics.com/pub/tcl/tcl7_5 to download an old version and compile it. Don't install it, because it may confilct with your Redhat's built-in TCL. Just copy libtcl7.5.a to $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib---There is a such file in the same directory of Oracle 8.1.6 for Solaris:-). Make a symbolic link for it:
ln -s $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/libtcl7.5.a $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/libtcl.a
Oracle's manual recommends, use ins_oemagent.mk to build agent:
make -f ins_oemagent.mk agent
You don't need modify the makefile.

Oracle intelligent agent executable has encountered a problem and needs to

Hi All,
I am getting the following message after commence of OS (windows XP) on my LAPTOP.
"Oracle Intelligent Agent Executable has Encountered a Problem and needs to close."
due to the above problem it takes time to be fit to start working. that is; when i start my laptop then it gets ready very shortly but just later on it is seen that my laptop gets to be hanged. it seems that some background process runs and during this time nothing can be done on my laptop (even REFRESH - F5 doesn't respond). then after some time the above message comes. this process seems to be very much annoying.
there is a small Oracle database (9i) in my laptop along with Oracle developer (10g).
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tapash,
You probably don't want/need that service to run anyway. So go to your control panel/Adminstrative Tools/Services
and set Start Type to Manual for Oracle<ORACLE_HOME_NAME>Agent service

Problems installing TCL 7.5 and Oracle Intelligent Agent

All
Has anyone had any success in installing TCL 7.5 and Oracle
Intelligent Agent? If so could you please provide a step by step
summary of the installation process. I keep getting error
messages when I run gmake for TCL. I commented out the lines
specified in the instructions. Does one have to use TCL 7.5? I
even tried to run version 8.2 and it restarted my machine while
running gmake test. Maybe it is how I commented the lines. I
used the # character to comment out the lines. Please help. IFve
got everything else running I can even use Net8 and SQL plus
from my Windows NT Client. I now need to be able to use Oracle
Enterprise Manager, which requires TCL 7.5 and Oracle
Intelligent Agent.
Many thanks

I could not find any documentation regarding which ports are used for communication between master and intelligent
