4.5 Preparing the Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent Instance for Monitoring

1. Create a file named GLOBALS in the OGG_HOME directory, if this file does not exist.
2. Edit the GLOBALS file.
3. Add ENABLEMONITORING on a new line.
4. Close and save the file.

   Note:

   Starting with Oracle GoldenGate 12.3.x, the datastore is managed internally. Therefore, you can skip Step 5 for Oracle GoldenGate 12.3.x and newer versions.
5. For GoldenGate 12.2.x and older versions, create the datastore using the CREATE DATASTORE command with SHM ID. All processes should be stopped before creating the datastore:

   GGSCI> CREATE DATASTORE SHM ID <unique positive integer>

   Note:

   For GoldenGate 12.3.x and newer versions, you do not need to create datastore manually. It gets created automatically when you start PMSRVR (performance metrics server).
