Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 11g Installation:

Before installing the grid control, we need to install weblogic server.

Oracle Weblogic Installation:
Go to Weblogic dump location and invoke the installer.
[oradb@prithvi 11gGrid_32]$ cd /u01/softwares/weblogic
[oradb@prithvi weblogic]$ ./wls1032_linux32.bin

Pre-requisites for Installing Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control:

1. Create Operating System Groups and users

Check if the Oracle Inventory exists

# more /etc/oraInst.loc

Creating Oracle inventory group, OSDBA group, OPER group and Oracle software user

# /usr/sbin/groupadd oinstall
# /usr/sbin/groupadd dba
# /usr/sbin/groupadd oper
# /usr/sbin/useradd -g oinstall -G dba[,oper] oracle
2. Install OS packages

Kernel Parameter Requirements for Oracle Management Service and Oracle Management Agent
If we have to install a new Enterprise Manager system, an additional OMS, or a standalone Management
Agent on any Linux operating sytem (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 or 5, Oracle Linux 4 or 5, Asianux
Linux 3, and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10), then we have to set the kernel.shmmax parameter to
a value that is not greater than 4 GB. This parameter is present in the /etc/sysctl.conf file.

Library Requirements for Oracle Management Service

GLIBC-2.5-12 library is required for installing new Enterprise Management System or an additional
OMS.

3. Unique Host Name and Static IP Address Requirements

Ensure that we check the network configuration to verify that the host on which you are installing resolves to a
unique host name and a static IP address that are visible to other hosts in the network.
Note: You must use only a static IP address. If you use a dynamic IP address, the installation will fail.
4. File Descriptor Requirements
/bin/sh -c "ulimit -n"
4096
If the current value is not 4096, then as a root user, update the /etc/security/limits.conf file with the following
entries:
<UID> soft nofile 4096
<UID> hard nofile 4096
5. JDK Requirements
For Linux (64 bit) SUN JDK 1.6_18+ is to installed separately. (On Linux 32-bit platforms, you need not install
JDK because it is packaged by default with Oracle WebLogic Server)
To check JDK installed, query the following to get version of JDK
Java fullversion
6. Oracle WebLogic Server Requirements

Oracle weblogic 10.3.2 (Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Release 1 Patch Set 1)only should be installed
prior to the installation of Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control.

While Installing the weblogic select installation type Typical and no other Fusion Middleware products
or components should be installed in the Middleware Home directory where Oracle WebLogic Server
10.3.2 is installed.

Oracle WebLogic Server Patch Requirements: We have to apply patch ID WDJ7 on Oracle WebLogic
Server using the Oracle Smart Update utility. This patch fixes bugs 8990616, 9100465, and 9221722.
For information on applying this patch, see My Oracle Support note 1072763.1.

7. Database Partitioning Requirements

The Database must have partitioning enabled. To verify this, connect to the database as SYSDBA and run the
following query:
select value from v$option where parameter = 'Partitioning';

OEM 11g Grid Control

8. Existing Database Not to Be in QUIESCE Mode

The Database must not be quiesce state. To verify this, run the following query.
select active_state from v$instance;
9. Existing Database Not to Have Database Control
We need to check that the Existing Oracle Database does NOT have Database Control SYSMAN schema. If it
has, that is, if your existing database is configured with Database Control, then deconfigure it.
To verify whether your database has Database Control SYSMAN schema, run the query.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ALL_USERS WHERE USERNAME='SYSMAN';
If the query results 1, then the database has this schema and we need to de-configure the database control.
Before deconfiguring the database control, set the ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_HOME parameters and
run the following command as database user.
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop -SYS_PWD -SYSMAN_PWD
[oradb@prithvi bin]$ emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop -aux11g -aux11g

2) ORACLE_HOSTNAME is set. Unset it and re-run EMCA script

10. Existing Database Not to Have SYSMAN and SYSMAN_MDS Schema

We need to check that the existing Database does NOT have SYSMAN and SYSMAN_MDS schema.
To verify whether your database has Enterprise Manager Grid Control SYSMAN schema and MDS
schema.
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ALL_USERS WHERE USERNAME IN
('SYSMAN','SYSMAN_MDS');
If the result of this query is 1, then the database has these schemas, so we need to drop them.
Drop the schema by running the following command
Drop user SYSMAN_MDS cascade;
Check for entries in the table SCHEMA_VERSION_REGISTRY. Delete entries where
comp_name='Metadata Services'.
delete from SCHEMA_VERSION_REGISTRY where COMP_NAME='Metadata Services';
If you find any invalid objects then run "admin_recompile_invalid.sql" for users 'DBSNMP' and
'MGMT_VIEW'.

12. Fine-Grained Access Control Requirements

OEM 11g Grid Control

The fine-grained access control option is set to TRUE, for the Oracle Database so that the Management
Repository can be created.
select value from v$option where parameter = 'Fine-grained access control';
13. UNDO Tablespace and Temporary Tablespace Settings Requirements
The UNDO tablespace should have a minimum space of 200 MB. To verify this run the following query.
SELECT SUM(DECODE(autoextensible,'YES',200*1024*1024+1,bytes)) total FROM dba_data_files f,
dba_tablespaces s WHERE s.contents = 'UNDO' AND s.tablespace_name = f.tablespace_name;
Also we need to check that the UNDO tablespace and the TEMP tablespace have Autoextensible enabled.
select count(*) from dba_temp_files where tablespace_name='TEMP' and AUTOEXTENSIBLE <> 'YES';
select count(*) from dba_data_files where tablespace_name='UNDOTBS' and AUTOEXTENSIBLE <> 'YES';
14. Archive Logging Settings Requirements

The Archivelog should be enabled for the database.

Select log_mode from v$database;

Installation Instructions:
1. No environment variable specific to Enterprise Manager Grid Control needs to be set prior to installation. The
ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID variables should not be set; Oracle directories should not appear in the
PATH.
2. While installing on hosts having multiple IP addresses, the host name is derived from the
ORACLE_HOSTNAME

variable that is passed while invoking the installer.

3. Go to the 11g grid software location and invoke the following command.
[oradb@prithvi ~]$ cd /u02/old_downloads/11gGrid_32/
[oradb@prithvi 11gGrid_32]$ ./runInstaller
OR
[oradb@prithvi 11gGrid_32]$ ./runInstaller ORACLE_HOSTNAME=prithvi.bangalore.bedford.local
