3.5.1 MxDB-Oracle-HiAv Installation and Administration Guide

Chapter 3: Oracle Enterprise Manager 54

Step 3. Start the Intelligent Agents using the following syntax:

$ agentctl start agent password_file=<full pathname of key file>

NOTE: The Supplemental Script that ships with MxDB-Oracle-HiAv

performs this step during Virtual Oracle Server startup. It is also a

good source of reference for manually testing the infrastructure.

The following screen shows the output on the sample system.

Step 4. It is best to set up Oracle Management Server on a different tier

than the database. Once the OMS server has been configured with a

repository, it is time to perform initial discovery of the

MxDB-Oracle-HiAv Virtual Oracle Services. The following seven

screenshots taken from the sample system show the following:

• The Virtual Oracle Service called Q9DEV.pdx.polyserve.com is active

on host 10.10.180.1 as per the output of the mxdb command and the

MxDB-Oracle-HiAv GUI.

• In Step 1 of 2 in the Discovery Setup Wizard, the Virtual Oracle

Service VHOST (Q9DEV.pdx.polyserve.com) is entered.
