17 Deploying Plug-Ins

Plug-Ins Icon Plug-Ins are modules that can be plugged to an existing Enterprise Manager system to provide target management or other vertical functionality. Plug-ins offer special solutions or new features, for example, connectivity to My Oracle Support, and extend monitoring and management capability to Enterprise Manager, which enable you to monitor a particular target on a host. Plug-ins work in conjunction with the OMS and the Management Agent to offer monitoring services, and therefore they are deployed to the OMS as well as the Management Agent.
