2.1.2 Stopping the Oracle Golden Monitor Server

Follow these steps to stop the Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server:

• You should close any running user interface sessions.

• Shut down the server by navigating to OGGMON_DOMAIN/bin (OGGMON_DOMAIN\bin on Windows) and enter the following command:

  On Linux or UNIX:

  $ ./stopManagedWebLogic.sh
  

  On Windows:

  C:\ stopManagedWebLogic.cmd
  

• In some instances, you might need to shut down an administration server; for example, if you are deinstalling Oracle GoldenGate Monitor. To stop an administration server, see "To stop the Administration Server".

2.2.1 Running Multiple Sessions

You can run multiple sessions of Oracle GoldenGate Monitor user interface from the same computer and browser if you are using Internet Explorer. You can also run one Internet Explorer and one Mozilla Firefox session at the same time, but multiple Mozilla Firefox sessions on the same computer are not supported.

2.3.1 Changing Passwords

Oracle GoldenGate Monitor Server passwords are initially set based on what you enter when you install the server. The Oracle Wallet is created by the install program to store the passwords on all supported platforms.

Change passwords by using the WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) command updateCred(). WLST is a command-line scripting environment by which create, manage, and monitor WebLogic domains.

1. Navigate to the bin subdirectory in ORACLE_HOME/common and launch WLST.

   On Linux or UNIX

   $ ORACLE_HOME/common/bin./wlst.sh
   

   On Windows:

   C:\ ORACLE_HOME\common\bin./wlst.cmd
   

2. Connect to the server:

   wls:/offline> connect('username','password','host:port')
   

3. Use updateCred() to change the password, as shown here:

   • To change the JMX password, enter this:

     wls:/test_domain/serverConfig>updateCred(map="OGGMONITOR",key=" WEB.JMX.PASSWORD",user="username",password="new_jmx_password",desc="JMX Password")
     

   • To change the keystore password, enter this:

     wls:/test_domain/serverConfig>updateCred(map="OGGMONITOR",key="MONITOR.KEYSTORE.PASSWORD",user="username",password="new_keystore_password",desc="Keystore Password")
     

   • To change the truststore password, enter this:

     wls:/test_domain/serverConfig>updateCred(map="OGGMONITOR",key="MONITOR.TRUSTSTORE.PASSWORD",user="username",password="new_truststore_password",desc="Keystore Password")
     

   • To change the SMTP password, enter this:

     wls:/test_domain/serverConfig>updateCred(map="OGGMONITOR",key="MONITOR.SMTP.PASSWORD",user="username",password="new_smtp_password",desc="SMTP Password")
