Trying to get OEM to Discover my Database

[brhynold]

I have intelligent Agent installed on an OpenVMS server with Oracle 8.1.7. When I start it up and check my SERVICES.ORA file it only shows that the node was discovered, not the 3 databases. I checked the NMICONF.LOG file and the error says that there is no valid listener for the databases even though it reads the listener file to get the DB names in the first place.

At my wits end, can anyone shed some light on the subject

Make sure that the tnsnames.ora had been set correctly.

start the agent

lsnrctl dbsnmp_start
lsnrctl dbsnmp_status


Then try to discover the node through the discover node wiz.

check whether your listener.ora has entries for the SIDs you are trying to discover.

SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/product/8.1.6)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = ORCL) <---- your SID
(ORACLE_HOME = /oracle/product/8.1.6)
)
