Is anyone currently using Grid Control 10g release 2 for management and
administration?

 

I am currently working on a project to install and evaluate it, and have
yet to successfully integrate the server and agents.

 

There seems to be numerous bugs (even on solaris - relatively stable
platform for Oracle!!!). 

 

I have opened several tars, as the command names and parameters have
changed (ie: agentctl is gone, replaced by emctl plus new options) and
these are NOT COMPLETELY DOCUMENTED (it at all) in the manuals.

 

I am ready to say that this product does not stack up well to third
party tools (such as Quest and BMC) since installation is difficult,
buggy, and labor intensive.

 

Has anyone had any experience which would dispute this?  I'd love to
hear from them.
