Weblogic 10.3.2 Smart Update / Grid Control 11.1.1

I'm implementing a new Grid 11.1 environment on a linux x86_64 platform. I've installed everything including weblogic 10.3.2 with the default options. (required for grid control installation). The problem is.... now I have to patch the 10.3.2 weblogic server.. BUT it doesn't have the smart update utility installed... in other words .. there isn't any BEA_HOME/utils directory. Much less a bsu.sh script to launch the patching process.
Has anyone ran into this before? I am new to weblogic and have never used the product. Thanks

Somehow the installation got split. Part when in the /u01 and the other went in the home path of the user. never had that to happen before. I ended up uninstalling and reinstalling to correct the issue. Thanks

Oracle 11g Grid Control failure at database credentials

Hi ,
I have the environment like Windows 2008 64bit machine. I have installed oracle database in one machine and in second machine , installed weblogic server then trying to install Grid control but
I'm facing the issue when i give the database credentials , its throwing message like check that listener is up and running or not.
I have checked everything is working.
Error is : There was a problem connecting to the database on the host and port specified. Check to make sure the host is up or that the database listener is running on that host
i have verified in the forums . but nothing worked for me. Could any one please help me out

If you have not tested a sqlplus connection to the database as user sys from the host where you want to install Grid Control, then try it.
Ex:
sqlplus sys/<PASSWORD>@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=<HOSTNAME>)(PORT=<PORT#>)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=<SID>)))" as sysdba
where:
<PASSWORD>: the password of user sys as entered in the UI
<HOSTNAME>: the host name as entered in the UI
<PORT#>: the port number as entered in the UI
<SID>: the SID as entered in the UI

Are EM Fusion Middleware Control & EM Grid Control different?

What is the difference between Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control & Enterprise Manager Grid Control? Are they two separate products or same (meaning Grid Control is super set of Middleware Control)?
Can I install SOA Management pack on Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control 11g or Is it that EM Middleware Control is same as SOA management pack?
If I am already using EM Middleware Control, what benefits I have by using SOA Management pack on EM Grid Control?
Thanks,
Channu

You can manage your Oracle Fusion Middleware environment using Oracle Enterprise Manager Fusion Middleware Control (Fusion Middleware Control) or Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control.
Fusion Middleware Control is a part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g installation. With Fusion Middleware Control, you can - Manage a single Oracle Fusion Middleware Farm and a single WebLogic Domain, Monitor the availability and performance of Fusion Middleware software in real time mode, Perform routine administration tasks such as deploying applications, configuring parameters etc.
Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control is a Web browser-based, graphical user interface that you can use to monitor multiple Oracle Fusion Middleware Farms and Oracle WebLogic Server Domains. In fact, Grid Control provides deep management solutions for Oracle technologies including Oracle packaged applications, Oracle Database and Oracle VM. Grid Control also offers extensive support for non-Oracle technologies through more than two dozen heterogeneous management plug-ins and connectors including Microsoft MOM, IBM WebSphere, JBoss, EMC storage, F5 BIG IP, Check Point Firewall, and Remedy. Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control needs to be installed separately as it is not a part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g installation. With Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control, you can: Centrally manage multiple Oracle Fusion Middleware Farms and WebLogic Domains, Manage third party tools such as WebSphere, JBoss, Tomcat, and Microsoft.NET Framework.

Functions: Oracle VM Manager vs. Grid Control Oracle VM Management Update

Hello guys,
i have seen both tools .. and i have to say that some really basic functions are missing in the Oracle VM management addon for Grid Control 10.2.0.5 .. just some examples:
- Renaming virtual machines (because of the prefix syntax is not very useful)
- Adding ISOs as CD/DVD after removing them one from the profile (until now you need to know the whole path to the DVD, even if the ISO is registered in the repository)
- Renaming image files (for example the disks of the VMs .. this would be very helpful in case of cloning machines)
- List the VNC port for the running VMs
All these features are available under the VM Manager (except the renaming file part) ... do you know when this will be implemented or is the Oracle VM management update already "finished" in its functions.
Regards

Hi,
You can manage your Oracle VM environment using Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c. Using Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c you can discover Oracle VM Servers, discover storage servers and file systems, create and edit server pools, set up networks and create storage repositories.
for more information, look at this URL.
I hope this can help you

Reinstall grid control agent, db agent, weblogic agent

Hi,
I installed oem 11g in testing environment. However, I reinstall the oms due to wrong operation. For agent side, I installed grid control agent, db agent, weblogic agent. Any official document can follow to re-install the agent...or I just re-install it by using "fresh installation". Many thx!
Gil

if you want just to reinstall the agent you could delete the $AGENT_HOME directory and cleanup the file "inventory.xml" ($ORACLE_BASE/oraInventory/ContentsXML).
But you could use the GUI of the installer as well and delete the agent the "official" way...
If want to reinstall the OMS, GC repository and/or the WLS as well I would suggest that you take a look into the documentation
under http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11857_01/index.htm

Recommeneded Auto Update Feature in 11.1 Grid Control

Hi All,
I would like inform you about New Auto Update feature in the 11.1 Grid Control Installer. This feature allows the latest recommended patches to be automatically deployed while installing a fresh 11.1 Grid control or while upgrading an existing Grid control to 11.1 version.
These auto updates ensure that any patches required by the oracle installer or for successful installation/upgrade of the product are applied before the actual installation or upgrade process. It ensures that there are no failed installations or upgrades from known issues.
Oracle highly recommends using this feature to ensure that any new or upgraded Enterprise Manager installation is successful
To know more about usage and benefits of this feature Refer to :
1. Note.1101208.1 Required Patches for Grid Control 11g (11.1.0.1.0) on Linux
2. Note.1099123.1 Overview of the "Auto Update" Feature Available with Grid Control 11g Install/Upgrade
3. Refer to this PDF
4. Use Install forum to place your queries
Note:- If you have downloaded and installed your Grid control before15th May 2010 then we recommend you to apply this Generic Agent patch 9676134 on all your target boxes. Refer to the Read-me of the patch for exact instructions. If you don't have this patch applied then you will see this patch appear in MOS recommended section for that target as well.
This patch fixes the performance issue that is caused by Grid control 11.1 running a metric query against the v$rman_backup_job_details view on target database instances for Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1) or higher. In some situations, this query might expose RDBMS bug 8434467, in which the query can run for an extended period of time, resulting in high CPU utilization.If you notice this problem, it is recommended that you apply the patches listed below, which will reduce the the frequency of the query.

Thank you

Add WebLogic Domain to OEM Grid Control

On a host, say x, i have installed OEM grid Agent Version: 11.1.0.1.0. The host is listed on OEM grid control. On this host i have a weblogic domain version 10.3.3. Now i am trying to add this weblogic domain to OEM 11g grid control which is on a different host.
It gives the following error
Error: Failed to connect to agent x:3872
Failed to connect to agent x:3872. Reason: java.net.UnknownHostException: x.
Only an agent 11.1 or later can be used for finding targets.
How can i solve this?

bummer.. any response? I'm getting the same error now, and the documentation isn't all that clear gasp

Grid Control 11GR1 and Weblogic Server

Am looking doing a new install of grid control 11gR1 on windows server 2008. I'm not all that familiar with the weblogic server. Can this be installed on the same server that Grid Control is running from?

Hello,
I'm not all that familiar with the weblogic server. Can this be installed on the same server that Grid Control is running from?Yes, you can. For OEM Grid Control 11gR1, you'll have to install WLS 10.3.2 and apply the Patch WDJ7.
You'll have more details on the following Notes of My Oracle Support:
How to Install Web Logic Server 10.3.2 for Installing 11g Grid Control [ID 1063762.1]
How to Download and Apply recommended WLS patch (WDJ7) on WLS home for 11g Grid Control Install/Upgrade [ID 1072763.1]Hope this help.

Weblogic license required for 11g Grid Control?

Weblogic is a pre-requisite for installing 11g Grid Control.
if you do not have weblogic already, and your only requirement for it is to use for Grid Control, is a license for Weblogic required?
I have raised an SR on this - and have been told a license is required.
I'm staggered by this - the packs in Grid have always been licensable, but the very basic functionality has always been free - including the use of an 'infrastructure' database to house the repository.
I'm interested to hear other peoples' experiences and whether this is a 'known' fact.

I've already asked Oracle sales staff about it, but I don't want to mislead you.
Could you remind them their restricted-use license?
Grid Control includes a restricted-use license for the Oracle Database and Oracle Application Server components required to deploy Grid Control. Refer to Section 1.3.3,
"Restricted-Use Licensing," for details on the restricted-use licenses
This is the URL of the document: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e14860.pdf
I would be happy to hear from their answer.

ITANIUM Grid Control and Oracle 10.2.0.3 update

QA and PROD databases were installed as 10.2.0.1 on Itanium servers.
QA was taken to 10.2.0.3 two weeks ago.
Grid Control AGENT was applied to QA early last week.
QA database continues to perform
PROD was not taken to 10.2.0.3
Grid Control AGENT was applied to PROD early last week.
PROD continued to perform.
THIS MORNING applying 10.2.0.3 upgrade to PROD: Installation set passed Deinstall and Install then at LINKING returned "Error in invoking target 'client_sharedlib" of makefile '/oracle/CDWP/orahome/nedtwork/lib/ins_net_client.mk" See '/home...log'. Examining the log led to libclntsh.so.10.1 WITH ZERO FILESIZE LENGTH. Further testing had repeated results.
THIS THREAD WILL BE PLACED IN ENTERPRISE MANAGER AND METALINK.
It appears the ITANIUM GRID CONTROL release was not well QC'd. I am FORCED to recover the PROD database from backup.
ANYONE with any insight on how to install 10.2.0.3 AFTER Grid Control please respond.

Issues during installation of WDJ7 Patch after new Smart Update version

Hi everybody,
today I installed the WebLogic Server 10.3.2 64 bit to use it for Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11g. One of the prerequisites is the WDJ7 patch for the WebLogic Server.
After the update of the Smart Update on July 11 it is not possible to get that patch over the Smart Update gui (Note: 1294294.1). I tried to download the patch with the id 9438213 over My Oracle Support. The descripton (SU Patch [WDJ7]: Mandatory Patch required on WLS 10.3.2 for Oracle Grid Control (GC) 11.1 install) of the download looks fine, but in the zip file the jar WDJ7.jar is missing. The zip files contains only the following files:
*4D53.jar*
NIXN.jar
patch-catalog_15563.xml
patch-catalog.xml
XLXA.jar
README.txt
How can I get the WDJ4 patch? Do I use the wrong patch id?
Best regards
Christian

If you look at the install documentation of the Grid Control you'll find:
"Ensure that you apply patch ID WDJ7 on Oracle WebLogic Server using the Oracle Smart Update utility. This patch fixes bugs 8990616, 9100465, and 9221722."
After loading the patch into Smart Update you'll see that the 3 entries which appears under tab Manage Patches are in fact fixing those three bugs.

   The line "skipping bad jar, '/u01/binaries/wls/wls1035_generic.jar'" is the one that's worring me. Can it be corrupt? Or it is something else?
   Thanks in advance.

Its too early to conclude the issue is a bug with out looking into the logs. For the same reason i requested you to open an SR so that we can have a look at the logs and identify the cause. If you are Oracle employee then you can share the VM details else we need logs to debug this further. If any one from your company can open an sr and share logs then that will be helpful. Can you also check if the shiphome that you downloaded is all correct and checksum/byte matches to what is mentioned on OTN.
