4.2 Update the Configuration Properties

Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent operates in one of two modes, Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server or Oracle GoldenGate Enterprise Management Plug-In. You set the configuration properties for the mode you want to operate in using the following steps:

  1. If you are using Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server (not Oracle GoldenGate Enterprise Management Plug-In), copy the oggmon.properties file from the OGG_MONITORSERVER_DOMAIN/config/monitorserver/cfg directory to the OGG_AGENT_INST_HOME/cfg directory of all of your Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent Instances, where OGG_AGENT_INST_HOME is the absolute path to your Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent Instance.
  2. Edit the OGG_AGENT_INST_HOME/cfg/Config.properties file.
  3. Review and set the properties for one of the following modes:

    Oracle GoldenGate Monitor (OGGMON):

    jagent.host=

    Use the default or change to the complete hostname or IP of the machine where Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent (jagent) is running.

    jagent.jmx.port=

    Use the default or change to your preferred port.

    monitor.host=

    Set to the hostname you set during your Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server installation in monitor.properties.

    monitor.jmx.port=

    Set to the port you set during your Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server installation in monitor.properties.

    monitor.jmx.username=

    Set to the user name you provided during your Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent installation

    jagent.username=

    Set a jagent user name.

    agent.type.enabled=

    Ensure it is set to OGGMON.

    jagent.backward.compatibility=

    Ensure it is set to false.

    jagent.ssl=

    Ensure it is set to false.

    Or

    Oracle GoldenGate Enterprise Management Plug-In (OEM):

    jagent.host=

    Use the default or change to the complete hostname or IP of the machine where Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Agent (jagent) is running.

    jagent.username=

    Set a jagent user name.

    jagent.rmi.port=

    Use the default or change to a specific port.

    agent.type.enabled=

    Set it to OEM.

    jagent.backward.compatibility=

    Ensure it is set to false.

    jagent.ssl=

    Ensure it is set to false.

  4. Close and save the file.

The oggmon.properties file is required to create the wallet.

Note:

If you use the Oracle GoldenGate Monitor UI to change a configuration file, you must reopen the file by clicking the Edit button. The tab title is changed to prefix with an asterisk symbol (*), which means that the text area is in edit mode. If you change any value and navigate to other sections without saving, then a confirmation dialog is displayed to inform you to save the change. Otherwise, the changed value is not retained and no messages are displayed.
