4 Perform Ongoing Administrative Tasks

After discovering a PeopleSoft application in Oracle Management Cloud, you may need to perform additional, and possibly ongoing, administration operations for the monitored entity.

Topics:

• Update the Credentials
• Rediscover the Composite After Adding or Removing Entities
• Perform Optional Configuration Tasks

Update the Credentials

If you change the Process Monitor credentials or the database credentials in PeopleSoft due to a routine password change policy, then the credentials must be updated on the Oracle Management Cloud side for the corresponding entities to ensure proper functioning of the agents running on the PeopleSoft entity hosts.

1. Navigate to Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring > Entity Home Page > PeopleSoft Application composite entity home page.

2. Click the down arrow next to the Actions menu, and select Update Monitoring Configuration.

   The Update Monitoring Configuration page is displayed.

3. Select the Edit Credentials check box. Update the credentials for database and Process Monitor.

   Click Save to save the changes.

4. You can verify the update by visiting the Discovery Job Status page.

Rediscover the Composite After Adding or Removing Entities

After you add new entities to the PeopleSoft Application composite or remove entities, then Oracle Management Cloud refreshes its PeopleSoft configuration automatically.

During the discovery of the PeopleSoft Application composite entity, if the process did not complete or if it got interrupted, then you can initiate the rediscovery of the entities.

1. From Infrastructure Monitoring Home, click the OMC Navigation icon, click Monitoring, and click Entities.

   The Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring Entity Home Page lists all the entities monitored by Oracle Infrastructure Monitoring.

2. Click the link on the PeopleSoft Application composite entity.

   The PeopleSoft Application composite entity home page is displayed.

3. Click the down arrow next to the Actions menu, and select Rediscover Members.

   The discovery job is initiated.

4. You can verify the completion of the discovery by checking the discovery job status. From the Oracle Management Cloud console main menu, select Administration > Discovery > Discovery Job Status.
