At my new job they still have a few cold database backups. We are planning on
switching them into archivelog mode and hot backups. But for now I setup OEM
blackouts so that we do not get alerted when the database comes down for the
cold backup.
One database seems to have issues with start blackout...it says that the
pad4009 database does not exist:
oracle@XXXXux51$ /opt/oracle/agent12c/core/12.1.0.3.0/bin/emctl start blackout
ColdBackup pad4009:oracle_database
Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c Release 3

Blackout start Error : the oracle_database target "pad4009" does not exist
oracle@XXXXux51$
So I ask it to give me a list of targets and it lists pad4009 as a database
target:
oracle@XXXXux51$ emctl config agent listtargets
Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control Release 10.2.0.4.0

[XXXXux51.XXXX.com, host]
[pad4009, oracle_database]
[LISTENER_DWHPRD04_XXXXux51.XXXX.com, oracle_listener]
Huh?? How can it list the database target but when I attempt to black it out
then it states that it does not exist.
Has anyone else encountered this?
TIA!!!
Chris
