C Oracle Configuration Manager Commands

This appendix describes the various command line options that are available to manage the Oracle Configuration Manager client.

The root user can perform diagnostic upload, diagnostic status, and diagnostic clear commands. In addition, the root user can perform configuration collection in connected and disconnected mode.

Note:

The <ocm_install_root> represents the directory in which the Oracle Configuration Manager common code is installed.

ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME is an environment variable used to define the location of instance-specific data in a shared home environment.

The following commands are described:

C.1 emCCR automatic_update on / off

  • Usage: Use this command to enable and disable the automatic retrieval of new software updates. Automatic retrieval of new software updates occurs only with automatic collections. By default, automatic updates are enabled.

    <ocm_install_root>/ccr/bin/emCCR automatic_update on / off 
    
  • Execute Privileges: Can be executed by <ocm_install_root> owner

  • Prerequisites: Oracle Configuration Manager must be running in Connected mode.

  • Example:

    <ocm_install_root>/ccr/bin/emCCR automatic_update on  
    Oracle Configuration Manager - Release: 10.3.8.0.0 - Production 
    Copyright (c) 2005, 2012, Oracle. All rights reserved.

    AUTOMATIC_UPDATE command ended successfully. 
    
  • Errors: Some of the error messages you may see are the following:

    • Access Denied: This error is displayed if you do not have the required privileges to run this command.

C.2 emCCR clear - diagnostic

  • Usage: Use this command to clear all diagnostic upload files. The syntax is as follows:

    emCCR clear -diagnostic[=SR=<Service request number>,FILE=<Absolute path of diagnostic package> [-completed] [-force]]
    
    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter to clear all diagnostic upload files.

    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter with the SR number to clear all uploads for a particular service request. The SR number must be in format x-y where:

      • x represents one digit

      • y represents multiple digits

    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter with SR number and FILE to clear a particular upload. FILE must include the name and the full path to the file that contains diagnostic information.

    • Specify the -completed parameter to clear only completed uploads.

    • Specify the -force parameter to clear all uploads even if there are errors.

  • Execute Privileges: Can be executed by <ocm_install_root> owner

  • Prerequisites: Oracle Configuration Manager must be running in Connected mode.

  • Example:

    Command successfully completed.
    
  • Errors: Some of the error messages you may see are the following:

    • Invalid SR format: This error occurs when the SR format does not match the required format of x-y. To resolve this error, you must specify the SR number in the correct format.

    • No such diagnostic upload request exists. This error occurs if you run a -diagnostic command for a non-existent or invalid SR number or file name. To resolve this error, view the status of all submitted packages and specify the correct SR number or file name.

    • Could not access diagnostic upload data. This error occurs while reading or writing diagnostic upload data. To resolve this error, make sure that the diagnostic upload client has read and write permissions to the <ocm_install_root>/ccr/state directory.

    • Invalid upload state. Could not perform clear. Please use -force to clear. This error occurs when the diagnostic package is corrupted. To resolve this error, use emCCR clear -force to clear the upload request.

    • Invalid command. This error occurs when invalid arguments are specified on the command line. Use emCCR help, view all the command line options and enter the correct arguments.

C.3 emCCR collect

  • Usage: This command can be run in Connected and Disconnected modes. You might need to run this command to determine the properties that need to be configured as a result of deploying the Diagnostic Checks package.

    Connected Mode: Use this command to perform an immediate discovery, collection, and uploading of configuration data. When you run this command, it checks if any Oracle Configuration Manager software updates are available but does not install them.

    Disconnected Mode: Use this command to perform a manual discovery and collection of configuration data. Collected data is not automatically uploaded but is stored in the <ocm_install_root>/ccr/state/upload/ocmconfig.jar file. You can then upload this file to Oracle by way of My Oracle Support from another system that has internet access

C.13 emCCR status -diagnostic

  • Usage: Use this command to view the current status of all diagnostic uploads. The syntax for this command is as follows:

    emCCR status -diagnostic[=SR=<Service request number>,[FILE=<Absolute path of diagnostic package>]]
    
    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter to see the status of all diagnostics uploads.

    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter with the SR request to view the status of all uploads for a particular service request. The SR number must be in the format x-y where x represents one digit and y represents multiple digits, for example, 3-543210001.

    • Specify the -diagnostic parameter with SR and FILE options to view the status for a particular upload. FILE must include the name and the full path to the file that contains diagnostic information.

    Note:

    The emCCR status command displays the state of the scheduler, when a collection was last performed, when the next collection will run and the schedulers start time. These times may appear to be inconsistent.

    The system's TZ variable affects how the time stamps are stored. Collections performed manually vs. automatically store their collection times based upon the TZ variable of the process invoking the collection.

    To resolve this inconsistency, insure the cron daemon is started with the correct system time zone.

C.19 configCCR

Usage:

Use this command to modify the configuration information using the command line interface. This command enables you to modify the registration credentials after Oracle Configuration Manager has been installed. You can also use this command to switch between Connected and Disconnected modes, and to configure Diagnostic Checks properties. The syntax is as follows:

configCCR [ -s ] [ -c ] [ -d | -C <OracleSupportHubUrl> ] [ -a | -r ] [<csi-number> [<MyOracleSupportId> ]]

configCCR [ -R <response-file> ] 

configCCR -D [ -v ] [ -T <target type> [ -N <target name> [ -P <property name> ]]]
  1. If you do not specify any arguments and you can connect directly to Oracle, you are prompted for credentials.

    configCCR
    
  2. If you do not specify any arguments but you cannot connect directly to Oracle, the following occurs:

    1. You are prompted for credentials.

    2. You are prompted for an Oracle Support Hub.

    3. If you cannot access the Oracle Support Hub specified or you entered NONE, you are prompted for the proxy server.

      • Either enter a proxy server or type NONE.

      • If you entered NONE for both Oracle Support Hub and proxy server, Oracle Configuration Manager is configured in disconnected mode.

    4. If you specified a proxy server but you still cannot access Oracle, you will be prompted for Oracle Support Hub again.

      • Supply the URL for the Oracle Support Hub or type NONE.

    You will be prompted for Oracle Support Hub and possibly proxy server until there is connectivity to Oracle or you type NONE for both the Oracle Support Hub and proxy server.

Parameters

  • The -a parameter configures Oracle Configuration Manager to run within the instance defined by the ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME environment variable or the current host.

    • If ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME is set to a valid directory, the Oracle Configuration Manager subdirectories are created in this directory, and the crontab entry (for UNIX platforms) or the service (for Windows platforms) for this instance is also created.

    • If ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME is not set, the Oracle Configuration Manager subdirectories are added to <ocm_install_root>/ccr/hosts/<hostname> (where hostname is the current host) and the crontab entry (for UNIX platforms) or the service (for Windows platforms) for this host is added.

    You can pass the configuration information on the command line, otherwise you will be prompted for the credentials.

  • The -c parameter designates an OCM collector installation to be a central collector. This option can be given with all other options except the -d option (disconnected mode). When a collector is configured as a central collector, it will collect data from Oracle homes that you own on this host whose collectors are either not configured or configured in disconnected mode.

  • The -C URL parameter defines the Oracle Support Hub used to connect to Oracle. If a proxy server is required to access the Oracle Support Hub, the user will be prompted for the proxy information.

  • If you use the -d parameter, Oracle Configuration Manager will be switched to Disconnected mode. In this mode, configuration data is not collected automatically. This mode is useful when your computer does not have Internet access. You can manually collect the data using the emCCR collect option. For details, refer to emCCR collect. When the -d parameter is used, do not use the following qualifiers: -C, -r, and -R.

  • The -D parameter configures missing diagnostic check properties. If you use the -D parameter without any qualifiers, you will be prompted for all required properties. The qualifiers associated with the -D parameter are:

    • The -v qualifier verifies that all target properties are properly configured, and no properties are missing.

    • The -T qualifier provides the target type for the target to be configured or verified. The -T qualifier is only used with the -D parameter.

    • The -N qualifier provides the target name for the target to be configured or verified. The -N qualifier is only used with the -D parameter. The -T qualifier must be specified.

    • The -P qualifier provides the target property name for the target to be configured or verified. The -P qualifier is only used with the -D parameter. The -T and -N qualifiers must be specified.

  • The -r parameter removes Oracle Configuration Manager instance-specific data from the instance directory.

    • If ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME is set, the Oracle Configuration Manager subdirectories are removed from this directory, and the associated crontab entry (for UNIX platforms) or the service (for Windows platforms) is also removed.

    • If ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME is not set, the directory <ocm_install_root>/ccr/hosts/<hostname> (where hostname is the current host) is removed and the associated crontab entry (for UNIX platforms) or the service (for Windows platforms) is also removed.

    Note:

    Parameters -a and -r are mutually exclusive. In a multi-host, shared home environment, no prerequisite steps are required to add or remove an instance home.

    In a single host, shared file system environment, you must first set the ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME environment variable to the instance home being added or removed before running configCCR -a or configCCR -r.

  • The -R parameter indicates the reconfiguration using the contents of the response file created using the emocmrsp utility. This parameter is mutually exclusive with the specification of the following on the command line: -d (disconnected mode), -s (signature accepted), and CSI and My Oracle Support User Name.

  • The -s parameter indicates the acceptance of the Oracle Configuration Manager license agreement. This parameter is optional.

  • The CSI and My Oracle Support User Name are optional and only used if you are using Oracle Configuration Manager in Connected mode or switching to Connected mode. All parameters can be specified on the command line. You will be prompted for any parameters that are not specified. After you specify the parameters, registration will be performed. If the registration fails, the original values for these parameters will be maintained.

    If the CSI is not specified and you are using connected mode, you will be prompted for the My Oracle Support User Name and Password.

Execute Privileges

Can be executed by <ocm_install_root> owner. Only the same user as the owner of the <ocm_install_root> directory can configure additional Oracle Configuration Manager instances.

Restrictions

The following restrictions apply when you install Oracle Configuration Manager:

  • When specifying an e-mail address, avoid using UNIX characters that overlap with the TTY terminal settings in use. Otherwise an undefined resultant behavior may occur.

  • For Windows 2008, the user account control must be turned off when installing and using Oracle Configuration Manager. If user account control is on, Oracle Configuration Manager experiences permission errors during installations and other Oracle Configuration Manager operations.

Errors

Some of the error messages you may see are the following:

  • Failure in registering with Oracle Configuration Manager server. Invalid credentials specified

    The My Oracle Support User Name (e-mail address) or Password or both are incorrect. If you get this message three times when you are registering using configCCR, you will register in unauthenticated mode.

  • This installation is already configured for Oracle Configuration Manager. Please remove existing configuration first.

    Received when executing the configCCR -a command and the host or ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME has already been configured for Oracle Configuration Manager.

  • ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME refers to a non-existent directory. Redefine $ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME to refer to the correct location or unset it if the configuration state is in the ccr directory tree.

    The ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME environment variable is defined to a nonexistent directory. The user must redefine the variable to a valid directory and rerun the configCCR command.

  • The Oracle Configuration Manager state/writable directory structure is incomplete. OCM is not configured for this host or ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME. Please configure OCM first.

    Received when executing the configCCR -r command and the host or ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME has already been removed.

  • The configCCR command cannot be executed as root. It can only be executed as the owner of the ORACLE_HOME.

  • The Oracle Configuration Manager install can support only one instance.

    The user is running a version of Oracle Configuration Manager that has been upgraded from a version prior to 10.2.7.0.0 and is attempting to configure a shared home. To use the shared home support, Oracle Configuration Manager must be deinstalled from the Oracle home and reinstalled.

  • Invalid My Oracle Support credentials.

    The My Oracle Support User Name (e-mail address) or Password or both are incorrect. If you get this message three times when you are registering using configCCR, you will register in unauthenticated mode.

    Invalid CSI or My Oracle Support User Name will also return this error.

C.20 deriveCCR

Note: Before using the deriveCCR command, refer to Setting Up Oracle Configuration Manager in a Cloned Home.

Usage:

Use this command to configure Oracle Configuration Manager in an Oracle Home that has been cloned. Execute this command from the ccr directory in the cloned home.

The syntax is as follows:

deriveCCR
deriveCCR [ -d | -C <OracleSupportHubUrl> ] [ <csi-number> <MyOracleSupportID> ]
deriveCCR [ -R <response-file> ] 

Before executing the deriveCCR command, ensure that the environment variables needed to configure Oracle Configuration Manager in the cloned Oracle home are set. Of special importance is the ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME environment variable. If ORACLE_CONFIG_HOME was used in the original home environment, then you must set this variable to the cloned home environment before executing the deriveCCR command.

The JAVA_HOME used for Oracle Configuration Manager is determined in the following order:

  1. If the JAVA_HOME variable is set for the environment, that is the variable used.

  2. If the JAVA_HOME variable is not set, but there is a JDK or JRE in the cloned home, that is the path used.

  3. Otherwise, the JAVA_HOME variable is determined from the Oracle Configuration Manager properties in the source home.

Parameters:

  • If no parameters are specified on the command line, configuration information is extracted from the Oracle Configuration Manager information in the source home.

    If connectivity cannot be established to Oracle using Oracle Configuration Manager information from the source home, you will be prompted for all connection information.

  • If you use the -d parameter, Oracle Configuration Manager will be configured to Disconnected mode. In this mode, configuration data is not collected automatically. This mode is useful when your computer does not have Internet access. When the -d parameter is used, do not use the following qualifiers: -C and -R.

  • The -C <OracleSupportHubUrl> parameter defines the Oracle Support Hub used to connect to Oracle. The deriveCCR command will prompt for User Name, Password and, if required, a proxy server.

  • The -R parameter indicates deriveCCR will get the configuration information from the response file created using the emocmrsp utility. This parameter is mutually exclusive with the specification of the following on the command line: -d (disconnected mode) and CSI and My Oracle Support User Name.

  • Specify the CSI and My Oracle Support User Name if you want to use a specific CSI and My Oracle Support User Name. The deriveCCR command will prompt you for any other configuration information required for connectivity to Oracle. After you specify the parameters, registration will be performed.

    If the registration fails, you will be prompted again for the information. If the validation fails three times, deriveCCR will configure Oracle Configuration Manager in unauthenticated mode.

Execute Privileges

Can only be executed by <ocm_install_root> owner.

Restrictions

On UNIX, if the source home was in disconnected mode, you are prompted for credentials so Oracle Configuration Manager will be configured in connected mode.

Prerequisites

Oracle Configuration Manager had to have been configured in the original source home.

Examples
