Typical metric thresholds and patterns for monitoring Exadata

I’m looking for any best practices or a list of recommended settings for the following:
.- Metric Threshold settings to manage Exadata with OEM12c.
.- List of main and/or typical metrics used for setting up alerts in OEM12c for Exadata.
Thanks in advance,
Carlos.

Do we need both management Pack and ADP for monitoring SOA suite 11g

Hi,
Do we need to Both management pack and ADP (OCAMM) Application Dependancy and Performance for monitoring SOA Suite 11g.
I was creating a monitoring template for SOA Composite and SOA Infrastructure and wanted to know if I need to install additional ( management packs, ADP and Middleware Plugins ) packs to get an effective template.

A management pack generally refers to the set of pages in EM Grid/Cloud Control which provide functionality for a given set of target types. Since EM Grid Control 11g, the ADP functionality has been part of the Grid Control release and the pages licensed via the Management Pack Plus for SOA or the SOA Management Pack EE.
To populate the ADP pages with data, additional steps must be performed in order to deploy an ADP manager and ADP agents. Doing this is optional, depending on whether or not you require the additional capability that those pages provide.
ADP data, however, are collected and stored separately from the core GC/CC metrics and are not related to the monitoring template functionality.

Metric threshold and Response Action

Hello,
I have a problem regarding the metric thresholds in Oracle 10gR2. I would like to set a response action for the "Tablespace full in percent"-metric, but until now I wasn't successful with that.
I tried the following steps (sorry, if I sometimes don't use the correct terms, but I have a non-English version of EM):
1. Logging in into Enterprise Manager as SYS
2. Adjusting the threshold value for the metric
3. Setting a Response Action for the metric
a) first I tried a PL/SQL-procedure
b) another time I tried a OS-command (batch file on Windows XP)
4. Clicking "OK"
EM shows me then the page with all metrics and their settings; a message says that my changes were applied correctly. Everything seems to be right, when looking at the metric I see my new threshold value as well as the Response Action. When reloading the page, my customized threshold setting is still there, but the Resonse Action "vanished". So, no surprise, the Action is never started when the threshold is reached.
Has anybody an idea why this is not working? Am I missing something? I hope I forgot no important information. Thanks for all replies!
Regards,
Lars

I thought I posted this earlier -- try the host metric log parser. It will search a given log file fo a given text string. Its quite simple to setup. There was an issue in 10.2.0.2 with the parameters in the wrong order but thats been corrected in 10.2.0.3. You could if desired put a fix it job in there that rotates the listener.log upon an error.

Alerting Metric thresholds for Notification rules

Hi Guys,
Can i edit the Response Time (msec) metric under the Listener Availability Notification rule to alert only if the response time is breaching the alerting threshold for 5 minutes,as in for 5 consecutive occurences when this metric is pooled ?
For example we can execute dbms_server_alert.set_threshold(.....
consecutive_occurrences=>5
for a metric like redo_generated_sec
Can we do this for Response Time (msec) metric under the Listener Availability Notification rule ?
I am also not seeing this metric listed under v$METRICNAME
Any ideas...
Regards,
Swanand

I am not sure if this is related, but you can added Metrics for the Service Test associated with the Beacon via the Monitoring Setting.
Example for homepage:
Select All Targets > EM Website > Metric and Policy Settings >Tests >Monitoring Settings of homepage
Then Add/edit Metric Thresholds and Collection settings accordingly.

Edits to metric threshold

I'm trying to make edits to a metric threshold and it doesn't seem to save my changes. I have full privileges on the target but just to be sure I made the edit as sysman, still didn't work. It appears to save the edit, I get the update successful screen but when I refresh the metrics policy settings page the threshold does not show my edit.
Anyone run into this before? Thanks.

what version?
Also after you edit a metric you'll got back to the metrics screen...You need to click on 'ok' before your changes are saved...it says at the top.

How to set collection schedule for metric thresholds

Greetings All,
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
Windows Server 2008 R2Please know that I am a newbie when in regards Enterprise Manager (any version).
I am trying to use EM-Database Control version that was installed when I installed Oracle.
I am trying to activate e-mail notification when tablespace(s) usage exceeds set thresholds. Specifically the locally managed tablespaces.
I found the Metric Thresholds page, and I found the “Tablespace Space Used (%)” metric. Note this is NOT the “(dictionary managed)” metric.
I do have e-mail and credential information established.
I found where you can identify a SQL script to be executed for corrective actions for the warning and critical thresholds. However I don’t want to execute any corrective action, I am just interested in the e-mail notification.
I know I could setup a SQL script that would send an e-mail but from my reading/research I believe that e-mail notification should automatically take place so long as e-mail and credential information has been established, which has been established.
My question is:
I can find now way to set a Collection Schedule. The dictionary managed tablespace metric has a collection schedule link (i.e. Every 15 Minutes), but the non-dictionary managed tablespace metric(s) has none.
Clicking the edit icon(s) provides no way of setting the collection schedule.
Where/how do I establish a Collection Schedule for this metric?
Thanks for your time,
Bob

Hi Bob,
With Grid/Cloud Control you can modify the collection frequency (interval) for the Tablespace Space Used (%) metric for locally managed tablespaces; however, you cannot do the same in DB control.
That being said, alerts from the metric are server-generated alerts, which are generated from the monitored database target. When the space used percentage exceeds the Warning or Critical threshold, assuming you have subscribed to an appropriate notification rule for email notification, you should receive an email notification in about 1 minute or so.
The following doc may help explain more about server -generated alerts:

Set metric threshold for default metrics

Running Grid Control 10.2.0.4; have not had the time to go through an upgrade to 10.2.0.5 yet.
There are several metrics I am interested in setting a threshold for, specifically the Streams Replication metrics. When I click the "All Metrics" link on the cluster database's homepage I see a category called Streams Process Count as well as several metrics within that group. Right now none of those metrics have thresholds set. I have tried adding a threshold in the monitoring config (Preferences -> Rules -> Database availability and critical states) but the Streams metrics do not appear.
Am I missing something here? I feel kind of ridiculous for asking, but I can't seem to find the answer anywhere...

Not every metric in 'all metrics' is configurable with metric thresholds.
Your workaround is to write an user definied metric.

Need Advise on Setting Critical Metric Threshold for "Status"

Hi All,
I am trying top copy all metric thresholds from OEM 9i to 10G. I ran across the metric threshold for "Status" (whether the node is up or down). It is set to "Down" and, although I'd like to set it to "Up/Down", when I hit Continue it comes back with
"The format of the critical threshold is not correct.". Does anyone know what the problem is?
Thanks
Sam

you are status metrics for all targets in grid control
the notification rules for databases,hosts,listener,aplication server are enabled the send mail if the status change.

I want to remove the monitor from my 17" Macbook Pro 2008 to use as an external for my Macbook Pro 15" 2012. How can I convert lvds to Thunderbolt and power the monitor?

I want to remove the monitor from my 17" Macbook Pro 2008 to use as an external for my Macbook Pro 15" 2012. How can I convert lvds to Thunderbolt and power the monitor?

It's almost impossible. The new iMacs have a Target Display Mode, but it's built to do that. Without ripping your screen out, finding an acceptable power supply, frame, and whatever electronics to convert a Thunderbolt signal to the screen, the cost will be much larger than buying a cheaper HiDef monitor that runs with an HDMI to Thunderbolt cable to your MacBook 15. In fact, you can sell your 17" MBP for a lot of money, unless it's broken or something, buying you a really sweet monitor.
By the way, I found your answer by searching this forum. I would suggest using the search function here in the futuere.

Adding redirect path and pattern in Lion server for configuring software update server

Adding redirect path and pattern in Lion server for configuring software update server.Any changes

Ok, after days of browsing on the forum I found the following hint on another discussion related to AFP access:
"This may be a service ACL issue.
It turns out one of the latest Apple updates turned on Service ACL's which caused AFP connections to be blocked. Once I fixed the Service ACL in Server Admin... all connections and Single Sign On worked."
Well, after allowing access to all services to all users with Server Admin, we were finally able to log in the server with our admin account...
So, there must have been an update that turned on ACL's which caused even our local access, probably for OD/Kerberos, on the server to be restricted.

External Monitoring...how is it for you and what for the future (CS5)

With the prospect of CS5 on the horizon and many of us considering it as the opportunity to up spec O.S,, software and hardware simultaneously (largely due to 64-bit)...I am wondering how everyone is getting on with their external monitoring solutions and what the expectation is for CS5.
In my opinion the way it is now (in CS4) is less than professional and needs sorting out (hopefully in CS5).
Issues are : Video / audio / synching internal and external devices so all play together.
Premiere Pro runs two playback / preview systems : One for scrubbing and source monitoring; the other for Program playback /preview.
(Example : Observe how and when audio plays through the audio mixer or observe what and when video plays through external or internal monitor...then note what happens when you PUSH PLAY - spacebar)
Without repeating the problems in depth, I would like to say how I wish it worked for me as an editor in a Pro environment with clients that sit in my suite as we work together.
I have a two monitor NLE set up plus one external for client viewing (and also for grading /CC).
I need the External Monitor (Video & Audio) and the Internal Monitor (Video and Audio) to playdown together. I dont want one to stop and the other to function.
I want them both working simultaneously playing video and audio. Am I supposed to get out of my chair to wander over to the client monitor to see the changes we just discussed then I actioned in the timeline? !!!!!!
A feature request : I would also like to be able to access the Playback Monitoring via Shortcut keys or On Screen buttons. It is very handy to be able to playback on the second monitor but it should be defaulted at 100% (Not Fit - as per the Program Monitor)
As regards HD. One should not have to install 3rd Party cards to monitor HD externally. The problem with that is one then needs to use the Presets from that card manufacturer. The Presets , eg P2 work so well in PPRO...so why do we need to mess with 3rd party drivers just to monitor.

Exactly!
I just like to let people know where is the origin of that shortcut (in previous CS editions it was in PROJECTS menu bar tab, and since CS4 it is in SEQUENCE menu bar tab....
I was trying to figure out what do you thing my "atom like button" )))
Finally figured out that it is the RGB icon (which is more the molecule then atom), but you gave me a hard time looking for atom!!! I thought it is in 3rd place, somewhere, as well - but "Atom" almost remained misteri
Anyway, interestingly enough, I just succeeded in getting my picture out on EXTERNAL CRT monitor through DV-monitoring in playback settings - FireWire through my scope (deck) and to TV....
And picture appeared.... But stood still.... Wouldn't move.... except when scrubbing... But when press PLAY it froze both on external DV monitor and PPRO program monitor in software!!!
Maybe it is my old ATI 3850 HD VGA - and maybe it just can't work!!!!
This pisses me off a bit!!!
I have unpacked copy of new AVID MEDIA COMPOSER 5 - which I have decided not to install until I am through with searching all new possibilities in CS5....
But now, I feel more and more like opening and installing it ----- Just to see how is it managed there!!!
It is hard for me ---- even to think to leave ADOBE ------ it is already enough that 80% of my Clients first ask me "DO YOU HAVE AVID".... and then, to half of them I somehow explain that it is gonna be better if we give ADOBE a chance, and the other half is just hard on their flexibility --- they've heard everything in Hollywood is edited in AVID, so they want their project to be the same....
And I was having a real hard time defending PPRO for years, preventing my Clients to make me switch to AVID - and look what ADOBE did to me now - ADOBE made me reach for my AVID MC v5 and install it and have it ready to take over any project, including the one I am working on right now!
Why, Adobe, Oh, Why!?

I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad. Can I use the iPad as a monitor and keyboard for the Mac mini, either through the USB connection or thru Wi-Fi?

I plan to purchase a Mac mini and then a new iPad. Can I use the iPad as a keyboard and screen for the Mac mini, using either the USB connector or Wi-Fi?

I'm sorry, I should have said thru Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi. I want to use the mini as a base station and the iPad like a laptop that I can sync when I'm home and carry with me when I travel. Is is possible to hook these 2 up - iPad/mini, through Bluetooth? I understand I need to use a regular monitor/keyboard/mouse on the initial install.

Thanks for the question Sandoss. This is something that we all come across at sometime.
Thanks & regards, Sumit Agrawal
The lack of this feature is an inexcusable oversight for an enterprise management product. They have some serious lightweights making design decisions on the SCOM team. 5 thumbs down.
BTW the answer is probably LOTS of stuff. Literally 100's of workflows are running on any server.
The following OpsMgr DB query will list all running monitors on a server. Change the name of @srv. I think this works pretty well. I'd like some feedback if something is missing.
DECLARE @srv varchar(30)
SET @srv = 'your name here'
SELECT mon.displayName as monitor, bme.FullName,bme.DisplayName as object,
case
    when s.HealthState = 1 then 'healthy'
    when s.HealthState = 2 then 'Warning'
    when s.HealthState = 3 then 'Critical'
    else 'N/A'
end as Health
FROM state AS s WITH (NOLOCK)
left join BaseManagedEntity as bme WITH (NOLOCK) on s.basemanagedentityid = bme.basemanagedentityid
left join dbo.MonitorView Mon WITH (NOLOCK) on Mon.ID = s.monitorid
where
bme.FullName like '%' + @srv + '%'
and s.HealthState <> 0
and mon.IsInternalRollupMonitor = 0
and mon.IsExternalRollupMonitor = 0
order by bme.DisplayName, mon.displayName
