  13. Acknowledgments This book sprung from material for a Grid Control “Deep Dive” class that I developed and taught to Oracle Consulting personnel at the behest of Dennis Horton, a Senior Director at Oracle. Without his impetus, I would never have tackled this book. Thanks to the Oracle Press team at McGraw-Hill Professional: Lisa McClain, Mandy Canales, Jennifer Housh; the copyedit team, notably Vastavikta Sharma, Carolyn Welch, and Bill McManus; and the Illustration and Production departments for their work in producing this book. I am very grateful to Ed Whalen and Phil Choi for their roles as technical reviewers. Ed introduced me to the McGraw-Hill team by bringing me in as a technical editor for his book, Oracle Database 10g Linux Administration (Oracle Press, McGraw-Hill Professional, 2005). Later, he told me about McGraw-Hill’s desire to publish a Grid Control book. After I signed up to write this book, Ed provided his company’s computer resources as a platform for most of the Grid Control installation and configuration steps shown in the book. I am also largely indebted to Phil Choi, formerly the lead editor at Oracle for Enterprise Manager products, for extensively editing the book’s first draft. Phil taught me a great deal about technical writing. I greatly appreciate Oracle’s help in supplying and validating technical content as needed. Thanks to Oracle Support in answering some tough questions along the way, particularly Mathieu Hornsperger for explaining the inner workings of Grid Control security. Narain Jagathesan and Anirban Chatterjee in the Enterprise Manager development group at Oracle provided much of the detailed information about the Management Agent given in Appendix A (available online at www.OraclePressBooks.com). xiii
  14. xiv Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Implementation Guide I’d also like to acknowledge my Oracle mentors: Howard Ostrow, a great all-around technical resource and RAC expert; Matthew Burke, a DBA master who tutored me for four years in DBA paths less traveled and encouraged me to present my first white paper; and Ashok Nagabothu, who took me, when a fledgling DBA, under his wing. I am grateful to my family and friends for seeing me through a trying time personally while writing this book. My brother Jon, his wife Gina, their son Daniel, my mother, and good friends Adam Bierman and Brad Stonberg were very supportive. I am indebted to Amy Seawright, erstwhile companion, who brought me back to life before my mistress, Oracle, reclaimed it. Finally, I thank my daughter, Leah, and my muse for resurrecting me yet again, once and for all.
  15. Introduction This is the first book dedicated solely to the subject of implementing Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control. It was only a matter of time before such a book was published. With the first release (10.1) of Grid Control roughly seven years ago, Oracle ushered in a true system management product. The latest release (10.2) of the product is enjoying large-scale adoption by companies looking to centrally manage their complete IT infrastructure—not just their Oracle systems, but non-Oracle ones as well. Firms around the world are significantly cutting IT expenditures by administering their data center components with Grid Control. As you would expect from such a capable software product, the Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control documentation library from Oracle Corporation is bulky, yet still does not contain solutions to certain common installation and configuration hurdles. Answers are found in supplemental material available on OracleMetaLink, the Oracle Technology Network (OTN), and elsewhere on the Web. (How much third-party material alone is out there? Google “Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control” and you’ll get 122,000 hits.) All in all, it’s a lot of material to digest, especially if you’re new to Grid Control. Contrast a Grid Control novice’s first installation using product and supplemental documentation with that of an expert who has performed many installations, having already waded through and assimilated the reference material and learned the bugs, workarounds, optimal installation order, shortcuts, tips, and tricks. The expert will likely implement Grid Control successfully, on time and under budget, whereas the novice may not be so fortunate. The aim of this book is to lend an expert hand to a DBA who is not intimately acquainted with Grid Control so that he or she can implement it according to best practices, as quickly and painlessly as possible. This book distills what I’ve learned from completing many Grid Control engagements over the past seven years. Each implementation was unique: many were large installations at Fortune 500 companies, while others were smaller, proof-of-concept assignments; the platforms were different, as were the high availability requirements. Yet, these engagements also shared many commonalities: I ran across same issues over and over again—some xv
  16. xvi Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Implementation Guide generic, some platform-specific—and found myself returning to the same reference material for tried-and-true solutions. I documented the process for customers and gathered Grid Control collateral from colleagues. When I was with Oracle Consulting, I funneled this knowledge and experience into a week-long Grid Control “Deep Dive,” a hands-on laboratory course that I developed and taught to Oracle consultants. More than anything else, it was this trial by fire in teaching fellow consultants—the toughest students—that motivated me to want to share my methods with a wider audience. This book is a “best-of” compilation of all these Grid Control experiences, a how-to manual on which novice and aspiring expert can both rely. I provide step-by-step instructions on how to install, configure, maintain, and tune Grid Control releases 10.2.0.3 and 10.2.0.4 for all operating systems on which it is certified. The book does not cover how to upgrade an existing OEM 9.2 or 10.1 installation to the latest 10.2 version. I concentrate on how to implement Grid Control 10.2, not how to use it ad hoc (such as to tune managed targets). While configuring Grid Control is the book’s central focus, I use Grid Control to configure itself whenever possible to demonstrate its features. By turning Grid Control on itself, so to speak, you will learn how to use it. For example, the Chapter 14 material on backup and recovery of the Oracle Management Repository Database applies equally to target databases. The appendices for the book are available at www.OraclePressBooks.com on either the Downloads page or the book product page. The material there lends itself better to soft copy because you can copy the provided commands, scripts, etc. for setting up Grid Control to your clipboard. This book is intended primarily for Oracle DBAs with at least a few years of experience who want to install and configure Grid Control to administer their IT infrastructure, as well as for system and network administrators assisting in the process. In addition, the book is suitable for IT managers responsible for a Grid Control project or just interested in gaining insight into the product’s capabilities to administer both Oracle and non-Oracle products in their data centers. To effectively capitalize on the book, those in management roles should have at least a basic knowledge of Oracle technologies. Conventions Throughout the book, I refer to two main operating systems: Windows and UNIX. The term “UNIX” refers to all variants of that OS, including Linux. UNIX syntax is used unless the equivalent Windows syntax widely differs. The most prevalent difference is between the UNIX forward slash (/) and the Windows backslash (\) in directory specifications. Following are the conventions used throughout the book: Term Meaning Text in italicized angle brackets represents a variable. Substitute a value for the variable text and do not type the angle brackets. [ parameters ] Text in square brackets represents one or more optional parameters for commands. Enter any optional parameters and do not type the square brackets. \ In UNIX, the backslash continuation character at the end of a line permits entering a single command on multiple lines.
