Please also check to make sure that your central inventory is in good working order and accessible by the user running the agent. I have seen similar discovery failures when, at install-time, the agent configures a new central inventory. I believe that in addition to /etc/oratab, the agent also uses the information in the inventory to identify databases on the same host. -Brian -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
