The credit for the patch apply in the post goes to a new friend that wishes to remain anonymous, except that her initials start with KA, and who happens to work at a company in Memphis, TN. Coincidentally, that is where I had been liv. During a recent EM12c project at her company, we were […]
Set oraInventory for EM12c Agents during GUI Installation
So, this is a peculiar problem that I had to dig to find a solution for; each time I deployed an agent to Add Targets to EM12c where no other Oracle Software was located, it would always created the oraInventory located under the $HOME directory. In my case, /home/oracle/oraInventory. This is quite annoying because for […]
User Authentication in EM12c via Weblogic Framework Security
Update Feb 14, 2014: I posted a detailed followup note on EM12c, Weblogic, and Finding Your Way in Active Directory.

On my current project involving EM12c, I had to configure the Weblogic Server with LDAP Authentication against Active […]

How to Change Properties of a Target in EM12c
One of my colleagues asked me a good question this morning about how to go about changing the properties of a target, specifically the “Contact” field. The properties fields for a target are often over-looked, but are important to the prioritization algorithm for event management. For example, if a target’s Lifecycle Status is Production or […]
Create a Simple Job for a Host Target in EM12c
Afternoon folks! I received a text from a customer of mine asking whether I had any documentation to create jobs in EM12c. To be specific, the job in question could have been setup via crontab or windows jobs but since I had recommended consolidation of newer jobs in EM12c, this was a good question. The […]

With that in mind, I’ve created a list (see below) which I hope to keep updated, and you will find as a helpful resource. 1. Patch […]
A Useful Metric Extension in EM12c for Unsupported Oracle Database Versions
Metric Extensions (ME) in EM12c are the new User Defined Metrics from EM11g. It’s an awesome extension of EM12c to monitor non-standard metrics. For example, EM12c’s Oracle Database Plugin 12.1.0.4.0 and 12.1.0.5.0 are only supported with the following versions of the database: I wrote a post on an Alternative Method to monitor GoldenGate from EM12c […]

Using the provisioning functionality, one can create software components which contain compressed installation binaries. This feature is not limited to only Oracle software, but to illustrate an example, I’d like to show you how […]
