Installing the Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite

Introduction

Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite (AMP) extends Enterprise Manager (EM) 10g Grid Control to help monitor and manage an Oracle E-Business Suite system more effectively. The pack integrates Oracle Applications Manager with Grid Control to provide a consolidated, end-to-end E-Business Suite management solution.

This pack is an upgrade release of the Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 3.0. An upgrade path to Release 3.1 is provided from Release 3.0 only. Therefore it is mandatory for the existing installations to be at the Release 3.0 level before upgrading to Release 3.1. The pack can be used to manage both Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 as well as Release 11i systems.

Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Release 3.1 requires a minimum level of 10.2.0.5 of Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control.

This document describes the system requirements and installation of this new pack for Grid Control.

Important: Uninstalling Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite and Oracle Application Change Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite (ACP) Release 3.1 is not supported. Please back up the Enterprise Manager repository before applying AMP/ACP Release 3.1. Please contact Enterprise Manager Grid Support if you need more clarification on the backup procedure.

Note: This document typically uses UNIX syntax. If using MS Windows, substitute the appropriate Windows syntax.

System Requirements

OS/User Group Requirement

Please ensure that the ORACLE and APPLMGR OS user groups that own the Oracle E-Business Suite System nodes file system are added to the EM Agent user group list that monitors the machine on which the node exists.

For example:

If the Oracle E-Business Suite System node being monitored by the EM Agent has a user "applmgr" and primary group "appsdba", and an "oracle" user with a primary group of "oradba", the EM Agent user "emagent" must have secondary and tertiary groups "appsdba" and "oradba" added to it such that cloning and certain monitoring tasks can be properly executed. If you are adding these now, the agent must be bounced before proper command execution can begin.

Before continuing with the installation as outlined below, please read and become familiar with the known limitations as described in the Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite User's Guide.  These limitations are typically minor to most Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 and Release 11i administrators; however, they might be of concern to longtime users of Oracle Enterprise Manager who are new to using the Application Management Pack plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager.
