Issue:
Migrating from ITA 8.9 or updating from OME 1.0.1 silent installation of the “Troubleshooting Tool” and “MIB Import”
tool along with any other products selected in the auto run screen fails to install or upgrade on Windows 2008 SP2 32-
bit and 64-bit. This occurs when OME asks for system reboot during critical pre-requisite installation.
Resolution:
Manually install these components from their respective installers located in the windows folder where OME is
extracted to.
Issue:
While migrating of tasks from ITA 8.9 to OME, all scheduled task that are configured to “Run Once” appears as
“Periodic Daily” and is disabled. This issue occurs because ITA task information is incomplete when sent to OME during
the migration process. This does not affect any of the existing tasks that OME has configured.
Resolution:
It is recommended that any tasks that are not required must be deleted before starting migration.
After an upgrade from OME 1.0/1.0.1 or migration from ITA, RAC health status will be unknown if it was discovered
