I'm not sure if this is an issue with 11g, but I suspect it is worth mentioning. When we tried to set up 10.2.0.5 oem into a 10.2.0.4 database, we first installed 10.2.0.1 OEM and it hung while creating the repository. Oracles' recommendation was to install 10.2.0.1 as a software only then run a 10.2.0.5 software upgrade and only then create the repository as a workaround for the bug.

It worth's to take a look. Regarding what Peter asked, this document makes reference to two others, one for Enterprise Linux 4 (Note 793870.1) and another one for Enterprise Linux 5 (Note 784963.1 - This is the one referred by Alex) Regarding certification, according to note: 412431.1 - Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control Certification Checker, Database 11g R1 is supported as a repository database. Peter, if you would like to try to use Database 11g R2 as a repository, check with Oracle support, but Grid Control will monitor a target with Database 11g R1 or R2. Hope this is helps. Best regards, Ricardo.
