Ability to Export/Import Rule Sets
• Sometimes instead of cloning an EM environment, it would be beneficial to
simply pull over one feature to another EM.
• You an now export Incident Rule Sets from one Enterprise Manager site
and imported into another. These eases the demands to replicate rule sets
from one environment to another, including production to development
and test, etc.
• The exported rule set is stored as an XML file.

Rule Set Migration Made Easy
• The exported rule set includes all entities like subscribers to the rules,
email addresses of recipients, targets on which the rule set operates, and
notification methods.
• The import option includes an option that if these entities exist in the EM
environment, then they are kept in the rule set, otherwise they’re
removed.

Integrated EM Deployment
BI Publisher 12.1.0.3 integrated with EM
– BI directory under middleware home
– EMCTL option to start/stop BIP along with OMS
– Install will allocate BIP Ports HTTPS/ HTTP
– Shared storage config to support BIP on Additional OMS
– Ability to select and de-select BIP as part of Install
JVMD integration with EM
– JVMD gets deployed using FMW plug-in as part of EM install
– Only one JVMD Engine to be deployed on a OMS host
– EMCTL commands to show/start/stop JVMD

System Broadcast and Always On Monitoring
• Having the ability to send a global, pop-up message to all users of EM13c is
a very productive feature.
• Allowing a quick and single interface for administrator communication
within Enterprise Manager.

Creating a System Broadcast
• This is performed from the Enterprise Manager Command Line Interface,
(there is no EMCC option for this feature)
• Log into the EM CLI
$./emcli send_system_broadcast
-toOption=“ALL"
-messageType="WARN"
-message=“Message You Would like to Appear"
• You can also send messages to distinct EM users with the
toOption=“SPECIFIC” and –to=“user” option.

Multiple Proxy Support
• Often the Cloud Administrator is required to configure multiple proxies for
agents and OMS. These proxies, (i.e. aliases, allow the administrator to
eliminate OMS cycles and other maintenance headaches. The proxies are
managed just as you would any physical target, even when down.
• Agents are associated with the proxies by name or pattern. Using patterns
offer savings in configuration of single targets, using a pattern to recognize
and identify the agents.
• Multiple proxies can be associated with single agent and vice-versa, which
eliminates a single point of failure.

Proxy Support Demands

Enhancements to Corrective Actions
• Corrective actions are one of the most powerful automation tools you can
implement in Enterprise Manager.
• With 13c, an enhancement to support all event types including Compliance
Standard Rule violations, Service Level Agreement (SLA) alerts, and job
status events.
• DevOps has been incorporated into corrective actions, offering the
administrator an easy way to develop, test and release to production where
before there wasn’t one.
• The Cloud Administrator can now respond automatically to events with
common responses by scripting.

Corrective Actions Are Your Savior

Corrective Actons, Cont.
• Support for all event types.
• Support for compliance rules. This will allow users to associate corrective
actions with various compliance checks.
• Automated invocation using event rules.
• Ability to attach the latest corrective actions automatically.

Save Repository Space with Intelligent Compression
• Having copies of the same incident can allocate unnecessary space in the
repository. With Intelligent Incident Compression, duplicates of the same
incident can be compressed and saved as one.
• There are different criteria to save space the way the Cloud Administrator
requires-
– grouping by targets on the same host.
– targets belonging to the same aggregate target.
– grouping by event category
– grouping events by metric.
– By a window of time.
• Along with Compression, intelligent grouping allows for space savings.

New Job System Interface

The Job System Now Can Use Chef!
• EM13c has added a new job type, Chef!
• The software library now supports managing and accessing both Chef cookbooks
and recipes
• The deployment procedures have been extended to support the execution of
Chef recipes.
• Remember that the Chef cookbooks and recipes can exist either in the software
library or locally to a host target.
1. Ensure that chef-solo has been setup and is available.
2. Create a software library folder.
3. Upload a Chef cookbook.
4. Create a job using the Chef job type and submit it.

Chef Support
• New Job Type in the EM Job System
– Must have Chef Solo set up as a pre-requisite.
– Supports the execution of Chef recipes
– Chef Recipes can exist in the Software library or on the target host.
Simple Ubuntu Server…
$ sudo aptitude update
$ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
Install Chef:
$ sudo aptitude install -y ruby ruby1.8-dev build-essential wget
libruby1.8 rubygems
$ sudo gem update --no-rdoc --no-ri
$ sudo gem install ohai chef --no-rdoc --no-ri
$chef-solo

EM CLI Verbs Specific to Chef
emcli add_chef_cookbook -name="component_name" -folder_name="swlib_folder_name" -
filename="filename" -recipe_names="recipe_name11;recipe_name2;..."
emcli delete_chef_cookbook -name="component_name" -folder_name="swlib_folder_name"
emcli create_job

Enhancements to Gold Image Agent Deployment
• How much time to you spend on managing EM agents? Simplifying this
process can really offer time savings-
– Automate recovery during an agent upgrade or an agent plug-in deployment with an
upgrade
– What everyone wants, zero downtime for agent maintenance including patching,
upgrade, and plug-ins
– Compliance guarantees for agent configurations
– DevOps export/import opportunity from test to production Enterprise Manager
environments.
– Reports to show current gold agent deployments and opportunities to meet
compliance.

Enhanced Software Library
• Performance when working with the software library can be very
important.
• The feature incorporates staging content and
• Efficiency has been added to the software library to increase performance
of large files over a WAN or remote servers.
• This improvement also includes remote geo locations, introducing the
concept of cache nodes which can stage content on servers local to that
subnet..
• All subsequent file transfers are initiated from the cache nodes, reducing
transfer time and required bandwidth.

Always On Monitoring

Configuration Management
• Search and History Integration- Simplify searches on configurations and retain historical searches.
• Improved Configuration Item Search- The “look ahead” option makes it easier to find items.
• Advanced Logic Support- You can use AND/OR conditions in searches to create reports.
• Inventory and Usage Details- Including MS SQL Server and DB2

Cloud Lifecycle Success Plan
• Map out your infrastructure requirement
• physical and virtual networks, storage arrays,
applications , etc.
• You can generate consolidation advisories that include
plans to:
• Physical to Virtual (P2V)
• Physical to Physical (P2P)
• Physical to an Exadata
• Plan out:
• Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)
• Database-as-a-Service (DBaaS)
• Middleware-as-a-Service (MWaaS) clouds

If You Don’t Use DBaaS for Clones….
• Transportable tablespaces?
• Datapump?
• Copying of files to cloud locations?
• SERIOUSLY?

Simplify with Hybrid Cloud

Ease of Management

Forget about it….

Register External Storage Solutions
• Supports NAS and NFS
• Add Storage for VM’s easily
following software components can be
stored in the storage repository:
■ Oracle VM Templates
■ Oracle Virtual Assemblies
■ ISOs
■ Virtual Disks
■ VM Files

Engineered Systems
• Automate patching with patchsets
on Exadata and Exalytics, which
includes patch recommendations,
auto patch download.
• VM provisioning on Exadata
12.1.2.1.0 virtualization is now
supported and provides an
efficient, completely automated
mechanism for scheduled mass
deployments.
• Administrators can now perform all
of this from the Cloud Console.

EM13c VM Manager
• If you had Oracle VM Manager 3.0.x registered with Enterprise Manager
previously and had upgraded it to higher versions 3.1.x or 3.2.1, you must
update the Oracle VM Manager URL.

Keep in Mind
• You must upgrade your repository database to 12.1.0.2 along with the EM
when going to EM13c.
• Ensure your EM environment is healthy by running a full EM Diagnostics on
your environment before taking on an upgrade:
$repvfy diag all
• Ensure you’ve sized your EM environment properly. If you’re running on
the same server you ran EM10g, probably not…. 
