Hey all,

I've installed OEM GC 10.2.0.3.0 on OEL 4, after giving up trying to follow
Oracle's instructions for moving 10gR2->R3 on Windows.  Things are mostly
working, but I've seen a few important glitches.

First, is there any method for notification of OEM job failures?  I can't
find one here or in the 10gR1 DB Control that this is replacing.  Kind of a
bummer when our RMAN backups fail because of a full flash recovery area and
there's no emails generated to let me know about it.  And I can't find any
sort of mention of this in Metalink or any of the online docs (local to OEM
or at tahiti.oracle.com).

Second, I've created a user-defined metric to monitor the size of our top-n
tables.  It worked great when testing it at five minute intervals.  As soon
as I altered the interval to the production once-a-day, OEM cleared all the
alerts with the message "CLEARED: Collection disabled".  But the collection
is enabled and is still running once-a-day, as scheduled, according to the
Collection Timestamp on the metric.

I won't mention how adding the SQL Server plugin apparently broke my test
Agent.  <sigh>

Seeing as my average resolution time is >4weeks for an SR, I thought I'd try
here first...

Anyone?
TIA!
Rich
