Deploy Agent In Enterprise Manager 12c

Posted on by Osama Mustafa in Application
After I post about how to install Oracle Enterprise manager ( em12c ) today i will talk how to deploy em12c agent

there’s two method to do that

1) Configuring Automatic Discovery
2) Adding targets Manually

I will describe the both 🙂 each one separately

Before deploy you need to decide if you want to use Oracle user or root user the below steps you have to do before using oracle :

[root@em12c ~]# vi /etc/sudoers

and change and add the following lines :
Comment this line :

#Defaults    requiretty

add the below line

oracle  ALL=(ALL)       ALL

and remove ! from this line :

Defaults   visiblepw

Now On em12c There’s something called privilege delegation

Privilege delegation allows a logged-in user to perform an activity with the privileges of another user. Sudo and PowerBroker are privilege delegation tools that allow a logged-in user to be assigned these privileges. These privilege delegation settings will be used for all provisioning and patching activities on these hosts.

Read more here.

in the screen below add these lines :
/usr/bin/sudo -u %RUNAS% %COMMAND%

/usr/bin/sudo —> location for sudo command.

 after all the above steps are done let’s configure Auto Discovery

Setup –> add target –> configure auto discovery  the below screen will open, choose the first option “Host and oracle vm manager Discovery using Ip scan”

 Press create Button

On add Button new Panel Will open , Choose your Host and Choose the Range Ip for scan The Format Mentioned above examples :

192.168.1.240-250
192.168.240/10
192.168.240,241

 Now you need to configure Job Summary

the job will start immeditaly as we choose press “Refresh Ip Scan Result” to check The result. you can check it also from here :

Check the Host

Next Post will be How to Add Agent Manually .
