Add Oracle Service Bus

You can add Oracle Service Bus entities using the Add Entity UI or using the cloud agent command line interface (omcli) with the appropriate JSON files.

Step 1: Prepare Oracle Service Bus for monitoring.

Prerequisites

Important: Before you can monitor Oracle Service Bus (OSB) entities in Oracle Management Cloud, you must first enable monitoring from the Oracle Service Bus Administration console.

For information, see What are Operational Settings for a Service?.

Once monitoring has been enabled from the Oracle Service Bus Administration console, you can add OSB entities to Oracle Management Cloud. When specifying an OSB entity, you use credentials of a user with at least the Monitor role. The user can also have either the Operator or Admin role.

Step 2: Add the Oracle Service Bus using omcli and the Appropriate JSON Files

  1. Download and extract the required JSON file(s) from the master JSON zip file. See the table below for the specific JSON files you'll need.
  2. Edit the file(s) and specify the requisite properties shown below.

  3. Add the entity using omcli.
    omcli add_entity agent DEFINITION_FILE [-credential_file CREDENTIAL_FILE [-encryption_method_gpg]] 
  4. Verify the status of the newly added entity.
    omcli status_entity agent DEFINITION_FILE

See step 4. Adding Entities to Your Service of Add Entities Using JSON Files for more information.

Step 3: (Optional but recommended) Set up alerts.

To enable lights-out monitoring, you can set up alert rules to generate alerts and send notifications if your entities have performance issues.

See Set Up Alert Rules and Set Up Alert Thresholds and Notifications.
