Configuring EM using DBCA
Assuming the database currently has no EM repository configured it can be easily
configured by the DBCA. This configuration tool is aware of the existence of the EM
repository and it can have both the Enterprise Manager repository and the console
configured. When accessing the DBCA, choose the
Conigure
Database
Options
option, then select the target database.
If the DBCA then realizes that there is no repository configured at the target
database, it displays a screen asking the DBA if the EM access should be configured
for the target database. This management option allows the DBA to decide whether
an EM console will be configured for the target database or not (
A
), the options
available are Database Control and Grid Control console. In case a grid control agent
is found then it will enable the
Use
Grid
Control
for
Database
Management
option,
otherwise it will enable the
Conigure
the
Database
with
Enterprise
Manager
option only (
B
). This screen also prompts the DBA for email notifications and the
daily backup default strategies. If the DBA wants to enable email, an SMTP server
is required as well as an email address for notifications to go to (
C
). For the Backup
strategy (
D
) the DBA should be aware that this is a full backup the user is supposed
to schedule at a given time. This default strategy as well as the email notifications
can be enabled at a later time or reconfigured if the DBA chooses to use them.
