Separate User for Oracle RDBMS and EM Agent...

Good Day All,
Has anyone here deployed the EM Agent (10.2 or 11.1) as it's own user? For example, leave the Oracle RDBMS binaries owned by "oracle" but install the EM Agent as "oagent."
I inquired with Oracle Support and I've received the "it is possible and done in some environments" but I want to know how many folks have done it, how large of a target base are you monitoring, and what target types have you tried. We are using a mixed RHEL & OEL environment.
Our goal is to separate the installation and support of the EM Agents from the RDBMS by team. I think we would want to have a shared Linux group... there might be some issues with the Inventory and writing to it by separate owners but we should be able to get around that.
Thoughts?
TIA!
Regards,
Rich

Thanks for the response!
Besides central inventory, do you know of any other issues we might have with this configuration? Have you implemented this to monitor targets such as Linux hosts, Listeners, RDBMS, WebLogic, iAS, Peoplesoft, Siebel, etc?
Regards,
Rich

  • Issue with .profile for oracle 9i and 10g

    Here I have six oracle 9i databases on one box. I am going to upgrade five of them to oracle 10g and want to keep one database RCAT in oracle 9i for one or two week.
    So, when I do upgrade I have to setup oracle home for 10g and also profile for oracle user for 10g (correct me if I m wrong). But now I want one database RCAT on oracle 9i. How can I take care of this.
    I mean how I will handle profile and all other thing for oracle 9i and 10g at the same time.
    Thanks,
    Vishal

    Install 10g under the same OS user as 9i, of course on a different Oracle Home. Then you configure your .profile consequently. Just as an example, this is my .bash_profile with 10g and 11g with the same oracle OS user :
    [oracle@linux5 ~]$ cat .bash_profile
    # .bash_profile
    # Get the aliases and functions
    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
            . ~/.bashrc
    fi
    export EDITOR=vi
    export ORACLE_BASE=/home/oracle/base
    umask 022
    o10()
    {       export ORACLE_SID=db102
            export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/OraHome10
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
            export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
            export TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_BASE/OraHome11/network/admin
            export PS1='[\u@\h_10 \W]\$ '
    o11()
    {       export ORACLE_SID=db11
            export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/OraHome11
            export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
            export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
            export PS1='[\u@\h_11 \W]\$ '
    s()
    {       sqlplus / as sysdba
    asm()

  • Can we define users for both studio and integrator server

    Can someone please let me know how can we define users for both studio and integrator server so that the user can be used to view UI page but not modify it.I want to define user in studio which will access the Page but not modify it. And the user in integrator server should be able to view scheduled jobs.
    Thanks a lot.

    Amrit,
    Both Studio and Integrator Server support LDAP. See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35976_01/studio.240/eid_studio_users/toc.htm#Integrating%20with%20an%20LDAP%20System%20to%20Manage%20Users for details about implementing LDAP in Studio. For Integrator Server, see "LDAP Authentication", p. 38 (document pagination; p. 44 pdf file pagination) in the Integrator Server Guide (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35976_01/integrator.240/DataIntegratorServer.pdf).

  • In SAP BW landscape we should have separate servers for DEV, QA and PROD

    Hi all,
    In SAP BW system landscape we should have separate servers for DEV, QA and PROD.
    whether one server is enough for DEV and we can use virtual servers to QA & PROD?
    Regards,
    chandu

    Hi chandu,
    In my previous Organisation we got exactly the same landscape for BW as you described.BCS(BAYER COPSCIENCE LTD) operates a BW System Landscape with one centralized  Global Development System and three regional Quality Assurance and Production Systems located in Europe, Asia Pacific and Americas. This Landscape is to ensure consistent data models to be available in all regional systems as well as to minimize development efforts and make use of respective synergies.
    This is perfectly working  for BCS ,and I think, this is the most approriate way of handling of resources.

  • Are there different php functions for Oracle 8 and 9?

    Hi!
    Are there different php functions for Oracle 8 and 9?
    Thanks for your answer!

    You can use the oci8* functions for Oracle 8, 9 and 10.
    It is the most recent PHP interface to Oracle, and uses Oracle's most recent
    API.
    The name oci8 comes from the version number of Oracle - version 8 - when
    Oracle introduced a new C API. It succeeded the original OCI and got the
    common name OCI8. The original OCI now has the common name of OCI7.

  • OCCI for Oracle 9i and MS Visual Studio 2005

    Hello.
    Where do I get OCCI *.lib and *.dll files for Oracle 9i and MS Visual Studio 2005 (VC 8)?
    Roman Perepelitsa.

    I was able to use MS Visual Studio 2005 and OCCi classes. There is a catch though, I was not able to use the debug library dll as it will crash. So I was not able to debug any code using the VS debugger, instead, I use the old and lengthy process: insert printf statements.

  • Why do we have separate apps for phone, messages, and contacts?

    I'm trying to reduce the number of apps that I need to run, and this one just boggles my mind.
    Why do we have separate apps for phone, messages, and contacts?
    The messages is to tightly coupled to the phone, that it doesn't make any sense for them to be separate.
    The contacts app is nothing more then looking at the contacts from the phone app.
    What's the story here?
    Does it have something to do with the contacts also being part of email app?
    Actually, that's my other biff... why are they entangled as such?
    Phone contacts should have phone#, email contacts should have email addresses.
    If you want a contact to have both phone# and email address, then the two apps (phone/email) should be combined.

    The contacts app is nothing more then looking at the contacts from the phone app.
    What's the story here?"
    The forums would be full of people complaining that you had to go through an additional step ( opening the phone app) to get to contacts.  I use the contacts app from the home screen far more often then I use it in relation to calling someone.
    I like the way it is far more than the way you propose.

  • Is there any impact analysis tool for Oracle Forms and Reports

    Hi All
    We are curretly looking at tools available to do impact analysis in Oracle Forms and Reports. This is for the maintainance of a large Oracle application developed using forms and reports 10g. We use Oracle Designer but only to maintain the db structure and not for forms and reports generation. Our intension is to find out the impact of db model changes, stored procedure changes in Oracle Forms and Reports. Please suggest any tools that are currently used for this purpose.
    I remember manually maintaining the CRUD matrix for Oracle Forms and Reports for maintainance purpose. CRUD matrix will have the list of all the tables which are affected by the module. But this is a manual activity and hence the responsibility is with the dev team to keep the document updated. Please suggest if there is any alternative to this way which can be more effecient and less error prone...
    I also wonder how these are done in Oracle ERP? how the apps team in oracle is maintaining the forms and reports?
    Thnaks in Advance
    Mahesh Mathew

    Quest (the makers of TOAD) have a tool called SQL Impact which gathers data from forms, reports, triggers, packages etc.
    FormsMate is a simple, cheap alternative for comparing or searching in forms.
    http://www.jockvale.ca/products.html
    Alternatively, you can export forms to xml (with iff2xml90.bat) and reports to jsp (with rwconverter) and simply grep those and your sql scripts. There are grep tools for windows if you need.

  • Create Separate Views for New,Edit and Display forms in Infopath

    Hi,
    I need to create a separate views for New, Edit and Display forms in infopath.
    For ex : I need a Submit Button on Display form and not in New/Edit forms.
    I tried, but i amnot able to get the changes.
    Regards, Shreyas R S

    I just validated my approach in a 2013 farm, this is precisely how it's done!
    Step 1) List > Display Form
    Step 2) Change the View within the Web Part Properties. In your screenshot it looks like you simply went to View Item on the single item, which is not the direction I gave =P.
    **Assuming you've already created the multiple views within InfoPath, this allows you to set them up as distinct defaults for New, Edit and Display, let's make that clear. If you are not even to the point of having separate views, that is just in InfoPath,
