RE: OEM question

Title: Message

You are correct about the chicken/egg problem with the repository. You don't necessarily require a repository if you are using it as a management console rather than an application managament framework.

 

I have tried to automate various things with OEM jobs and events and eventually decided that at and dbms_job worked perfectly adequately. bearing in mind that DBMS_JOB is - I'm pretty sure - designed by a bunch of sadists who have it in for Admin guys this is not a huge recommendation :(

 

However OEM does allow you to generate a db change and then copy the correct sql syntax to your text editor.If your brain is fried this is kinda nice.

Hello all,

I'm configuring OEM for the first time.  I see it needs a repository to operate.  So for the db-up functionality, if the database that contains your repository goes down, your db-up function is dead, right?  Sounds like the rman catalog quandry.  YOu have a catalog to backup your database, but then you have to backup your catalog...

And just as a fyi:  I completed the upgrade from 8.1.7.4->9.2.0.3 on Windows 2000 without incident last night.  It actually went pretty quickly.

Thanks in advance for any comments about OEM.
