6.1 Promoting Oracle GoldenGate Targets

Once the targets are discovered successfully, you need to promote them in order to view and monitor the targets. After the targets are promoted, they are displayed on the OGG Home page.

To promote Oracle GoldenGate targets:

1. In the Targets on Host page click Discovered Targets to view a list of discovered targets.
2. From this list, select a target that you want to promote, and then click Promote to display the Custom Promotion for GoldenGate Targets page. In this page, you can deselect the processes, which are not required for promotion.

   Note:

   When you select any target, its parent targets are auto selected.
3. Click Promote in the Custom Promotion for GoldenGate Targets page.
4. Click Yes in the Confirmation dialog box if you want to manage agents.
5. After the promotion is sucessfully completed, click Close to display the Manage EM Agents for OGG instance page.
6. Select the Target Name and then click Submit.
   An Information box is displayed indicating that the changes are submitted successfully.
7. Click OGG Home to display all the targets that are promoted.

   Once a target is successfully promoted, the target is displayed on the Home page, and the Management Agent installed on the target host begins collecting metric data on the target. See Target Metrics Available on OGG Home Page.
