That's a good thought actually - something I hadn't considered.

We used to have the repository DB protected by service guard and two
management servers. Upgrades were a pig. Failed multiple times and had
long-running SRs.

We now run the whole lot OMS + DB on a single VM and use the virtual
infrastructure to provide resilience between hosts and data centers. It's
very easy to manage. Upgrades are simple. If something goes wrong, we pull
back a snapshot/backup of the VM and we are sorted. I hope I never run
Cloud Control on physical again.

I'm not saying it would be perfect for all situations, but I'm a big fan
of Keep It Simple Stupid (KISS).

Try looking at the one that runs OPC – 2 million targets and counting.
Now that’s when you need a big DB server. ;)

That's correct. I've yet to see a requirement for a huge EM DB server
though.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong - for the Enterprise Manager restricted
use license listed below, we can run a single-instance Oracle db on any
size server we desire correct? The server that houses the db and EM
components doesn't have to be a certain size, right?



Or is there some limitations to the number of CPUs etc?


Enterprise Manager Restricted-use License

· Enterprise Manager includes a restricted-use license of the
Oracle Database for use as the Oracle Management Repository only.

Additional database options or additional servers for disaster recovery
require separate licensing. Customers receive one single-instance database
with the Grid Control, or RMAN, repository. To protect the repository with
Data Guard, customers need to purchase a license for the standby site. To
protect the repository with Oracle Real Application Clusters, customers
must license the second node for the database, and both nodes require an
Oracle Real Application Clusters license.

· Use of Oracle WebLogic Server with Oracle Enterprise Manager is
restricted to the servlet functionality without clustering for the Oracle
Management Server (OMS).
