RE: A Challenge

We painfully made 9i OEM work...but 10g OEM kicks A$$! It really does. Agent auto-connecting... Built in policy violations.. History storage of stats on your database so you can double click on the warning and drill down to the SQL process that gave you problem several days ago. Performance tuner that will show you how to improve the sql ( room for improvement but certainly a time saver). All the alerts can be easily made and copied to other servers. And this one I like... You can do completely compare Unix servers (kernel parameters etc) to see what unix cowboys did to hose the system. Keeps track of all your patches that need update.. Can install the patches for you. Can clone the databases by push button if rman is active. This 10G oem can tell you where is the bottleneck right out to the oracle web server. Soon they will extend to all app servers. There are lots of goodies on this 10g... To me it's finally the monitoring system we've been asking for years.

Well I have tried OEM with each release and while I always find a few things I like, the hassle I usually have getting it installed/configured etc...is almost never worth it. My own tools have been steadily advancing and I have never found a problem yet that I needed to go to OEM to get the answer. I will take another look I guess when I get a chance, I have seen the demos.

Also I tend to work in a multiple environments across different projects/locations all at the same time, I am usually limited to ssh and sometimes tns. I may not have control over getting software etc..installed so I like to just unpack my tools, create a user and get to work.

10g oem does all this shee for me now.. I liked doing the coding for all
that but I don't get to do it anymore here. The coding here would be I would grep my saved file and see when the number of lines hits my threshold then page... And then when the consecutive lines is interrupted I would send the clear page... That kind of idea anyways.. I love to code that stuff but in this shop we have lots of tools to do that now.
