RE: OEM/IA and DB shutdown

If you are using OEM v2.1 or higher then you could define a paging / email blackout before the shutdown
(either for the node / db in question or a total one).

Or you could remove the event and then reinstate it.

I run about 20+ databases from one OEM session, albeit on NT, and I never shutdown the agent when I shutdown a database. You must have OEM sending email for all events. Just use email for selected events that you want to know about.

OEM won't freak if you don't shutdown the repository database. If you do it will stop working at all. I use a small database on one of my servers to hold the repository and the recovery catalog. Then no matter what I do with the other databases OEM doesn't care.

I don't know if this answers all of your questions but I hope it helps, Ruth
