Cloud Control 12c
Introduction

 Grid Control became Cloud Control (by the way, beta releases
were named Grid Control 12g)
 Cloud Control 12c is the Oracle Management platform, also called
“Enterprise Manager” Cloud Control 12c
 Next generation of the Grid Control 10g/11g
 It allows to operate/monitor the following components and much
more:
 Databases & Middleware infrastructures
 Exadata infrastructures
 Monitoring of SQL Server
 Oracle VM infrastructures
 etc.

Cloud Control 12c
Installation

 Globally the installation has become much easier
 All components are installed smoothly in one step:
 JAVA , Weblogic Server, OMS
 The only “surprise” comes from the Oracle installation “zip” file
you download from Oracle Technet
 The “unzip” command provided by Oracle Enterprise Linux is not
able to extract these files! The installation crashes!
 On AIX 6.1 you have to use the unzip utility and not to use the
unzip_AIX downloaded from Oracle Technet

 More details on: www.dbi-services.com/blog


Cloud Control 12c
Installation

 Enterprise Manager 12c binaries are bigger than 11g version

 JDK, WebLogic and EM 12c are installed by a single installer

 Installer 12c needs less inputs and has less install screens than in
previous versions (10g/11g)

EM 12c EM11g EM 10g

Nb of screens 8 13 21

Nb of inputs 12 30 36


Cloud Control 12c
Installation

 EM 12c needs more resources

12c 11g

Memory Disk Memory Disk

OMS 4 Gb 7 Gb 3 Gb 6 Gb

Agent 512 Mb 1 Gb 512 Mb 850 Mb

Repository 2 Gb 50 Gb 2 Gb 50 Gb
(database)


Cloud Control 12c
Installation

 A lot of pre-requisites checks during installation
12c 11g

Checking if Oracle software certified on the current O/S X X
Checking for required packages installed on the system X X

Checking whether required GLIBC installed on the system X X

Checking for sufficient disk space in TEMP location X X

Checking for sufficient disk space in Inventory location X X

Checking whether the software is compatible for current O/S X X

Checking for TZ region X -

Checking for sufficient physical memory X X

Checking for sufficient swap space X -

Checking for required ulimit value X X

Checking for the Hostname X X

Checking for LD_ASSUME_KERNEL environment variable X -


Cloud Control 12c
Installation summary

 Installation of Cloud Control 12c became much easier than Grid
Control 11g

 Weblogic Server fully integrated (no need to install a WLS server
before), even better no need to Patch!

 8 installation screens instead of 13 (for Grid Control 11g)

 Lots of prerequisites checks

 Grid Control 12c needs more resources

Cloud Control 12c
Deployment

 Several methods are available to deploy the agents 
 Setup discovery using IP scan (not agent based)
 Multiple Target Discovery on single host (agent based)
 Add targets manually
 Silent mode using emcli
 RPM method (only on Linux)

 Agent 12c not yet available on Windows (Q4 2012)


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 Agent deployment methods


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 To deploy the agent on a target, we have first to discover a host
manually :


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 The deployment procedure uses named credentials
 Oracle uses /usr/local/bin/sudo, a symbolic link solves the
problem


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 An older release of the agent cannot be present on the system,
you have to un-install or remove it from inventory


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 Remote prerequisites checks are performed:


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 Finally the agent is configured on the target host:


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment GUI

 Once the agent is installed on the future managed host we can
add non host targets:


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment silent mode

 Silent mode is an alternative to add an agent using the add host
target wizard:
1. Configure emcli on the OMS host

2. Download the agent software on the OMS server using emcli
get_agentimage

3. Transfer the zip file to the future managed host where you want to
install the agent

4. Configure the agent.rsp response file

5. Install the agent using agentdeploy.sh


Cloud Control 12c
Deployment RPM

 With Linux it is possible to use a RPM based installation

 Mandatory to have the /usr/lib/oracle directory and the rpm-build
package installed

 We use emcli on the OMS host to generate a RPM image :
emcli get_agentimage_rpm -destination=/tmp -
platform="Linux x86-64" -version="12.1.0.1.0“
1. We copy and uncompress the rpm generated file on the future
managed host, and configure /usr/lib/oracle/agent.properties
2. We run /etc/init.d/config.pl to install and configure the agent
3. We have to create the /usr/lib/oracle directory with the correct
permissions on the future managed host
4. The rpm-build package must also be installed


Cloud Control 12c
Agent 12c summary

 Deployment to multiple servers in single step
1. Remote prerequisite checks
2. Automatically register agent with OMS
3. Retry/continue from failure
4. Control operations from GUI and EMCLI


Cloud Control 12c
Agent 12c summary

 Consolidated summary of agent 12c from agent home page
1. Performance, usage and resource consumption metrics
2. Configuration information

Cloud Control 12c
Graphical User Interface

 New GUI (AJAX based, no more html based or JAVA based)
 New layout , based on (contextual) menus:


Cloud Control 12c
Graphical User Interface

 Configurable layout (some pages) allowing to configure the
interface according to the user profile or needs


Cloud Control 12c
Service Management

 Service Management Oriented features and layout (i.e. Incident
and problem management), see demo later on

 Better integration with My Oracle Support (i.e. ORA-XXX errors
are directly linked to corresponding My Oracle Support notes)

 Improved help and documentation


Cloud Control 12c
Target monitoring – Admin. Groups

 Administration Groups and Template Collections improve the
management of targets and eases the monitoring strategy
 Administration Groups (improvement of Grid 11g Target Groups)
can be defined in hierarchies (properties of the parents inherited
by the Childs)

Source Oracle
documentation


Cloud Control 12c
Target monitoring – Templ. Collections

 Templates collections are composed of “monitoring templates” (of
several types), “compliance standards” and “cloud policies”
 Both together provide default monitoring and management
settings to the deployed targets
 They allow to remain targets in sync (i.e. no monitoring metrics
differences)
 Template collections can be affected to any level of the
Administration Group Hierarchy
 45 default Oracle monitoring templates are provided with Cloud
Control 12c (HTTP server, agent, Weblogic, aso …)
 Several templates can be “loaded” within one template collection


Cloud Control 12c
Service Management integration

 Cloud Control 12c introduces some basics of the Service
Management requirement
 Incident, problem management are covered based on the adrci
naming convention : “ORA-XXXX is a problem

 Possibility to assign, monitor, acknowledge incidents

 Possibility to create custom incidents

 Possibility to create custom incident views


Cloud Control 12c
