2 Managing Plug-in Deployments

Managing plug-in deployments refers to the tasks of downloading, deploying, upgrading, and undeploying your Oracle Enterprise Manager plug-in.

To deploy the Enterprise Manager for Oracle Construction and Engineering plug-in, refer to the following topics:

Downloading the Plug-in

You can download Oracle Enterprise Manager for Construction and Engineering in online or offline mode.

Online mode refers to an environment where you have Internet connectivity, and can download the plug-in directly through Enterprise Manager from My Oracle Support.

Offline mode refers to an environment where you do not have Internet connectivity, or where the plug-in is not available from My Oracle Support.

See Managing Plug-ins in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Administrator's Guide for details on how to download the plug-in in either mode.

Deploying the Plug-in

You can deploy plug-ins to an Oracle Management Service instance using the Enterprise Manager Cloud Control console or using the Enterprise Manager Command Line Interface.

Oracle Enterprise Manager has three components that the plug-in must be deployed to: an Oracle Management Service instance, an Agent, and a Target.

You must first deploy the plug-in to the Oracle Management Service instance that manages your Primavera application servers. Then, deploy the plug-in to an Oracle Management Agent on the server you want to monitor and create a Target for each application instance. For more information on creating Targets, see Creating Primavera Targets.

See Managing Plug-ins in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Administrator's Guide for instructions on how to deploy plug-ins.

Upgrading the Plug-in

Oracle periodically provides new functionality and updates for existing features in plug-ins. The Self Update page allows you to receive notifications and view, download, and apply updates for plug-ins. While the updates on the Self Update page are retrieved automatically, a manual check can be made at any time.

See Updating Cloud Control in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Administrator's Guide for instructions on how to deploy plug-ins.

Undeploying the Plug-in

See Managing Plug-ins in the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Administrator's Guide for instructions on how to undeploy plug-ins.
