Re: FIXED: any junk password works for sys / NEW QUESTION: grid control: connection refused error

Hi All,
Thanks for the replies. Adding the sqlnet.ora file with
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE) fixed the junk password issue.
Would appreciate if Bala could explain me why junk password was
allowed earlier and after adding sqlnet.ora with
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NONE) made the trick.

Also I did not know that SYSMAN is the default user for managing grid
control. Hence I was using sys user to logon. There was no specific
reason for using sys user.

NEW QUESTION:

grid control: 10.2.0.1.1
agent: 10.2.0.5

I tried to configure the agent on remote host to manage it with grid
control. No errors reported during installation. Remote host resides
on virtualbox. The remote host has 2 databases(SID: orams and catdb).
The remote host is discovered by the grid control. It shows up on the
targets page. Do I have to manually add the host/databases to the grid
or are they automatically added to the grid? On the databases link, I
can see orams and catdb. As of now catdb is down and orams is up. But
both databases show as Metric collection error. orams should be
indicated as up. When I try to startup/shutdown with the
hostusername/password and database username/password, I get connection
refused error.

Also emctl status agent reports agent as not running but emctl start
agent reports it as running.  ps -ef  | grep -i emagent report 2
emagent related processes.

emctl stop agent
Agent is Not Running

emctl start agent
Agent is already running

emctl status agent
Agent is Not Running

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks a ton.
