Part of the 12c upgrade.

As for migrating to 11g, I simply can't recall that now - those brain cells are 
long gone.  However, if the upgrade path was a single repository then it should 
definitely have kept your history.  If not then I think you were on your own.

Of course, the obvious answer is to can your upgrade to 11g project and so 
straight to 12c.  ;)

That's doable from the latest 10g release (10.2.0.5) or directly from 11g of 
course.

>>  That means you have both running, pre-12c and 12c, each with its 
own agents. As you move the pre-12c agents, you can sync the history as 
part of the move to the 12c repository.

Sync'ing the history - is that a 12c feature or is that available in 11g as 
well? 
I am in the process of upgrading a Production Grid environment from 10.2 to 
11.2. Preserving the history would be great.

Sorry, at the Australian 12c launch, so I just saw this.
If you were doing a one system upgrade, you will be upgrading your existing 
repository, so that keeps everything you had.
If you are doing a two system upgrade, you clone the existing repository, 
leaving the old version with pre-12c agents pointing to it. You can then 
gradually install 12c agents pointing to the new repository.
That means you have both running, pre-12c and 12c, each with its own agents. As 
you move the pre-12c agents, you can sync the history as part of the move to 
the 12c repository.

With the EM upgrade, when we re-register the targets do we loose the history of 
the metrics gathered?
Is there a way to preserve the performance metrics history?
