Manage Agent Credentials

This section discusses how to manage agent credentials using JSON files.

After the agent installation, you need to add entities for monitoring and analysis. See Typical Workflow for Adding Entities in Working with Oracle Management Cloud for details.

Each entity has credentials and this section covers how to manage agent credentials using JSON files and the command line utility omcli which is part of the agent files. To find the omcli directory location, do the following:

1. Connect to the host where the Oracle Management Cloud agent is installed .

2. Navigate to the agent installation directory. For example: <AGENT_BASE_DIR>/agent_inst/bin

3. Confirm that omcli utility resides in that directory.

   $ ls —la omcli
