■ noncluster aggregate targets include the database system target type, which consists of database instances,
listeners, asM instances, and high-availability services. Cluster targets such as database clusters, host clusters, and
redundancy systems will automatically inherit the target properties for both current and new members.

Note

Any new members of an aggregate will require that their target properties be set manually. The example to follow
shows how to propagate the LifeCycle Status and Line of Business target properties to the emrep_sys aggregate:

$ emcli set_target_property_value -property_records
="emrep_sys:oracle_dbsys:LifeCycle Status:Production" -propagate_to_members

This command will cause members of the emrep_sys aggregate (database instance, listener, and ASM) to have
identical LifeCycle Status and Line of Business properties.
When using emcli , the target properties are case-sensitive. For example, setting a property using Lifecycle Status
instead of LifeCycle Status (note the uppercase C ) will generate an error. To see the valid list of target properties that
can be set for a particular target, issue the emcli get_target_properties command with the target_type option.
The following example shows all valid properties for the oracle_dbsys aggregate target:

$ emcli get_target_properties -target_type="oracle_dbsys"

Be sure to visit each target you plan to monitor, and be sure to set for that target each of the properties
used to build your administration group hierarchy. Any target whose properties are not set will not be part of an
administration group, and therefore will not be monitored using the defined monitoring standards.

When setting target properties for multiple related targets, you can use emcli with the aggregate/cluster target
name to simplify the process. For example, to set the same Line of Business property for the database instance,
listener, asM home, and oracle home for the orcl_sys database system in one command, you would do the
following:

emcli set_target_property_value -property_records
="orcl_sys:oracle_dbsys:Line of Business:Marketing" -propagate_to_members
