To install a Management Agent using the agentDeploy script, follow these steps:

1.       On the OMS host, from the OMS home, log in to the EMCLI client. EMCLI Client is available by default with every OMS installation, so you need not install the client separately.

oracle@oms-1 /u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.2/midware/oms/bin $ ./emcli login -username=sysman -password=xxxxxx

2.       Synchronize EMCLI:

oracle@oms-1 /u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.2/midware/oms/bin $ ./emcli sync

Synchronized successfully

3.       Identify the platforms for which the Management Agent software is available on the OMS host:

oracle@metaxa /u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.2/midware/oms/bin $ ./emcli get_supported_platforms

4.       Download the Management Agent software from Oracle Software Library to a temporary directory on the OMS host:

$<oms_home>/bin/emcli get_agentimage -destination=<download_directory> -platform=”” -version=

oracle@oms-1 /u01/app/oracle/product/12.0.2/midware/oms/bin $ ./emcli get_agentimage -destination=/tmp -platform=”Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)” -version=12.1.0.2.0

Platform:Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit)

Destination:/tmp

5.       Transfer the downloaded ZIP file to a temporary directory (/tmp) on the destination host where you want to install the Management Agent.

6.       On the destination host, extract the contents of the ZIP file using the unzip utility

7.       Edit the response file agent.rsp

<software_extract_location>/agent.rsp

The following values will go in the response file replacing the # out version; we will need to add the hostname of the host we are installing on in ORACLE_HOSTNAME

OMS_HOST=oms-1

EM_UPLOAD_PORT=1159

AGENT_REGISTRATION_PASSWORD=xxxxxxx

AGENT_INSTANCE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/agent/12.1.0.2

AGENT_PORT=3872

b_startAgent=true

ORACLE_HOSTNAME=test-2

s_agentHomeName=agent_12c

8.       Invoke the deployment script and pass the response file:

<software_extract_location>/agentDeploy.sh AGENT_BASE_DIR=<absolute_path_to_agentbasedir> RESPONSE_FILE=<absolute_path_to_responsefile>

oracle@test-2 /u01/app/oracle/product/stage $ ./agentDeploy.sh AGENT_BASE_DIR=/u01/app/oracle/product/agent/12.1.0.2 RESPONSE_FILE=/u01/app/oracle/product/stage/agent.rsp

9.       Run the root scripts when you are prompted

10.  The ports that need opening if you get issues with the install are 1521, 3872 & 1159 between the OMS and the agent host

• The direction of the arrows specify the direction of ports.
• Port 1159, 4898-4989 indicates that 1159 is the default. If this port is not available, the Oracle Management Service will search in the specified range (4889 – 4897).
• To clone between two target hosts separated by a firewall, the agents will need to communicate to each other on the agent ports. The initiating Management Agent will make the call.
