We add the agent as we build the server. We don't use SSH for our silent installs but we deploy using a silent install Create the agent image This step only needs to completed once if you download new agent software. We deploy the base image of the agent and any updates/plugins will be applied to this image automatically by OEM. Log on to the OMS server and connect to emcli $<OMS_HOME>/bin/emcli login -username=sysman -password=<password> $<OMS_HOME>/bin/emcli sync $<OMS_HOME>/bin/emcli get_supported_platforms Pull the agent image to a directory on the OMS server, Suggest using the directory in this example. Use the platform and version from the above output in this command emcli get_agentimage -destination=/app/oracle/product/Middleware_R2/oms/agent_image -platform="HP-UX Itanium" -version=12.1.0.2.0 Copy the zip file that is produced to this location on the shared drives ( NFS mounted drive that is available as read-only on all servers) /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/<Platform>/<Environment> An install script and a response file will need to be created to install the agent Copy an existing script into /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/<Environment> And the response file into /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/resp_files Update both so they are specific to this environment Deploying the agent Now that the scripts are in place you can deploy the agent On the target server run one of the scripts in the table depending on the environment you want to add the target to. Environment Script POC /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/WRAPPER/install_12c_agent_POC.sh DEV /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/WRAPPER/install_12c_agent_DEV.sh PROD /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/WRAPPER/install_12c_agent_PROD.sh Currently the UNIX team will need to run the root.sh scripts The agent will now be present in the GUI and you can proceed with discovering and promoting the targets The contents of the deploy script is #!/bin/sh TYPE=`uname` if [ $TYPE = "HP-UX" ]; then echo "this is HPUX" /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/PROD/HPUX_agent_install.sh elif [ $TYPE = "Linux" ]; then echo "this is Linux" /software/oraclesoft/Grid_Agents/12.1/install_scripts/PROD/linux_agent_install.sh else echo echo "this is not HPUX or Linux" fi and the response file looks like this OMS_HOST=server_name EM_UPLOAD_PORT=4900 AGENT_REGISTRATION_PASSWORD=xxxxxxx AGENT_INSTANCE_HOME=/app/oracle/product/gc12.1/agent12c AGENT_PORT=1830 b_startAgent=true s_agentHomeName=agent12c emStageDir=/app/oracle/export #------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #s_agentServiceName:<String> Sets the agent Service Name and this variable can be # used to overrite the agent service name calculated by the install.
