RMAN using 10g grid control

I have oracle 8i and 9i databases including 9i RAC instances.
Planning to setup a 10g instance for centralized RMAN backups for all the above databases.
Do i need 10Grid control for this functionality ?
If yes what are the agent softwares needed on the 101g server as well as on 8i and 9i databases, so that i can discover the nodes.
Do i need to run an agent for every database, in case a machine host's more than on database ?
Do i need an agent running on every node of my RAC instance ?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
if you want to perform rman backup of all these database by Gui mode of management server then agent should be running on these database.
but if u go for manually(Prefer way) then u have first create a catalog on seprate server and register all these databases with this catalog and then run script for taking backup of database.
second method is best for ur case and in that u don't need of running agent.
Thanks
Kuljeet

  • Creating a new Oracle Database using 10G Grid Control

    Hi
    Is it possible to create a new database using the 10g Grid COntrol.

    The way to create a database with EM, is by using Provisioning procedures. For instance with the Oracle Clusterware / RAC Provisioning For UNIX, you can provisioning Clusterware, ASM + ASM instance creation and DB Software. Then by provisoning you would create a database. There are also procedures to extend a cluster.
    So, provisoning is the way to go!

  • Discoverer and 10g Grid Control

    Is anyone using 10g Grid Control to do any sort of monitoring (availability monitoring, performance, etc.) of Discoverer Plus, Viewer or the Portlet Provider? Any tips or strategies?

    Database Control is the HTTP Management environment and comes installed with the 10g Database. It can be used to manage one database (one target) at a time (standalone). To monitor more than one database, you must create a new console on a different port for each database.
    10g Grid Control is the Enterprise version in that you can monitor different Target from different operationg systems at the same time. These include Application Servers, Listeners, Operation Systems, Non Oracle Database Systems using plugins (from 10gR2).
    So, for someone who was using OEM 9i, there was connection in to Standalone Console (Java) and Oracle Management Server (Java and HTML). In 10g, they are replaced with Database Control (Java and HTML versions) and Grid Control respectively.

  • Installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Using an Existing Database

    I want to install Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control 10.2.0.3 using an existing database. This database is RAC 10.2.0.2. and I use it as Infrastructure Metadata Repository.
    I is said in Oracle documentation that SYSMAN schema has to be dropped, thus Database console repository has to be dropped. As far as I understand after Grid Control installation I will not be able to use Database console for my RAC 10.2.0.2 Infrastructure Metadata Repository database. I will be able to use only Grid Control for this database.
    Am I right? Could you give me any advice about Installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Using an Existing Database?
    Thank you.

  • OEM 10g grid control using an existing database

    Hello all,
    Has anyone been successful in installing Enterprise Manager 10g Grid
    Control (10.1.0.3) using and existing 10g (10.1.0.3) database?
    10g grid control comes with 9.0.5.0 database for it repository. Since
    this respository can not be update to 10.1.0.3, Oracle recommends using
    and existing 10g database instead.
    My installation goes 90% all the way before it fails. It fails at the
    create repository point.
    If any one has been successful, could you please share your success
    with me.
    Thanks,
    Jake

    Well, finally I did it! :)
    The problem comes when you are trying to install OEM repository into existing 10g DB which used to be configured with a standalone Database Control. Dropping SYSMAN user is not enough!!! There are some leftovers which must be cleaned before running repository creation assistant:
    drop user SYSMAN cascade;
    drop user MGMT_VIEW cascade;
    drop role MGMT_USER;
    drop public synonym MGMT_TARGET_BLACKOUTS;
    drop public synonym SETEMVIEWUSERCONTEXT;
    That's all folks.

  • Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 5

    Hi All,
    Has anyone here already using Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Release 5? Currently we are using Release 2 of Oracle Enterprise Manager as a package upon installation of Oracle 10g. Curious about Release 5 I want to try it out in our Dev Environment. But before making any changes. I would like to ask guidance from you.
    Upon installation does it needs Operating System Patches, Packages etc.? Currently we are using AIX 5L Based Systems (64-Bit) and 10g for Database. Is this a complete installation or Just an upgrade?
    Regards,
    Dexter

  • Can I see a Oracle9i db in a (10g) Grid Control?

    Hello, here is the scenario:
    I have a windows 2000 server. An Oracle 9.2.0.5 database is running already. I have freshly installed a Oracle 10g database. At this point both (9i and 10g) db are running fine.
    I am planning to install 10g Grid Control on that machine. Will I be able to see/include the Oracle 9i database in the Grid Control?
    Thanks in advance.
    Lily.

    Yes, as long as you have a 10g agent running on the server where the 9.2 db is, 10g grid control can be used to manage a 9.2 db.

  • Error - when creating a standby database with EM 10g Grid Control

    Hi,
    I am experiencing some problems when I want to create through the EM 10g Grid Control a standby database from a allready existing db. At step 2 when the files should be generated and copied to the other system, I am always getting the error that there isn't enough disk space on the other system. This can't be because there is at least 30GB free and the installer is asking for less than 1GB. I was searching the whole internet for a solution to this issue, but there was just nothing that could help me out with that point...
    Has someone an idea at this point? Thanks for helping...
    I am working on a Windows 2003 Server - Enterprise Edition for every system (Grid Control, Primary DB and Standby DB).
    Best regards,
    Patrick.

    Check that filesystem space using GC under targets>hosts on which you are trying to create standby. Do you have any specific error message from GC ? If GC shows proper size under host filesystem section then there shuld be no such problem. Double chk ur locations too.

  • OMS unable to reach host in 10g grid control

    Greetings Gurus:
    I installed oracle 10g grid control r2 and agent on a windows xp machine. on another windows xp machine i installed the agent. i am able to see the host in grid control on the machine with the grid control installed but cannot see the remote machine with only the agent installed. i have reloaded and uploaded, started and stopped the agent using emctl and opmnctl without any issues(this is on the remote machine) but still cannot see the remote host. when i try to secure the agent on the remote machine i get the following:
    Requesting an HTTPS Upload URL from the OMS...   Failed.
    The OMS is not set up for Enterprise Manager Security.
    I am fairly new at using grid control and standby database and have had a torrid time trying to fix this problem. your assistance would be greatly appreciated

    *1. Stop dbconsole*
    emctl stop agent
    OR
    emctl stop dbconsole
    *2. Secure it*
    emctl secure dbconsole sysman_pwd agent_reg_pwd
    *3. Start dbconsole*
    emctl start dbconsole
    *4. After some time when the dbconsole starts check the status*

  • How to create dynamic web report in 10G Grid Control

    Hi experts..
    In OEM 9i, it provides a OEMgenerationServlet servlet to generate dynamic Web reports, my company uses the servlet to generate many OEM report, those reports cal also take parameters, such as dabatase name. the generated web reports are viewable to public end users. I am looking for a similar function in 10G Grid control...
    Does anyone have the similar requirement, any suggestion will be highly appreciated..

    Hi,
    Thank you for the reply. I read about Clear and Purge from Oracle Doc about 10gR2, but nothing about R1. I drilled down all the way, can't find any thing to click for clear and purge. And I can't find anything from Oracle Doc, either.

  • 10g Grid Control Installation/configuration on RAC

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to RAC and I need your help.
    I need to configure 2 node RAC and install/configure Oracle 10g Grid control (High Availability) on HP-UX Itanium servers. Is there any good document or link?
    Thank You all in advance
    Bell

    Hi Bell,
    Here is the link for the 10gR5 Grid Control Installation Guide: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/install.102/e10953/toc.htm
    Considering the GC repository is a RAC database you will be performing the "+Using an Existing Database+" installation type.
    I would highlight the below part of the documentation:
    To view a list of certified Oracle Database, see Document ID 412431.1 on My Oracle Support (formerly Metalink).
    If you want to use a RAC database, which is configured on a virtual host, as the existing database, then refer to Document ID 561441.1 on My Oracle Support (formerly Metalink).

  • Is it Possible to Upgrade Perl Compiler in 10g grid control?

    Hi All,
    My Concern is about that can we upgrade perl compiler which would be integrated along with enterprise manager package. Since 10g grid control uses perl compiler old version 5.10.0.1 in that we dont have Perl package manager(PPM) to implement packages in perl repository for windows system. do let me know is there any alternate way to implement perl packages into OEM.
    Any suggestions in this will be of great help.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Ragunath N.

    If your trying to upgrade just apache in that oracle home, then no. If your trying to upgrade to a real apache version, from apache.org, mod_oc4j won't work. You need to use Oracle's version of Apache or HTTP Server.
    Is there a reason you only want to upgrade Apache and not the whole oracle home?
    There are ways to do it, but it wouldn't be supported by Oracle and I wouldn't recommend that either.

    We are using Oracle 10g Grid Control and with Agent Version : 10.2.0.3.0 , OMS Version : 10.2.0.3.0 and Protocol Version : 10.2.0.2.0.
