Hi Niall,
Yes and I recommended Ashoke take Rich's advice as well after linking to the
documentation he requested...:)

Hi Kellyn
My understanding is that Ashoke went down the DB Control route because his
understanding was that OEM 12 didn't support databases on RHEL7. That might be
true of 12.1.0.3 but it isn't true of 12.1.0.5.
Rich - you were looking at the certification for the OMS - the correct search
would be for the agent
https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/CertifyResults?_adf.ctrl-state=10p5kx9y0f_4&searchCtx=st%255EANY%257Cpa%255Epi%255E932_Enterprise%2BManager%2BBase%2BPlatform%2B-%2BAgent%257Evi%255E335752%257Epln%255EAny%257E%257C&_afrLoop=456648746087497
RHEL7 is a supported target for the agent.
Ashoke, I'd second the advice about investigating whether an OMS upgrade is
planned/acceptable - especially given the lifecycle stage that RHEL6 is in.
It's a long time since I used db control for management so take what I say
with a pinch of salt. My understanding is that you won't get notifications
when the db is down (a fairly serious flaw) but that you should in the other
cases. You might find
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/11g/r2/2day_dba/monitoring/monitoring.htm
helpful as a resource for monitoring and notifications.

Could we first verify that the original question is about DB Control, (aka
Enterprise Manager Express) and not the Enterprise Manager product that’s
installed on a separate repository, with a separate management service? If
it’s the former and not the latter, then these responses, although excellent
recommendations on what he should be installing, is not instance dependent
and wouldn’t explain why with the former, no notifications were received
about the database until the database, (and the locally installed repository)
were again, accessible.
Just a thought… :)

OEM 12.1.0.5 so maybe ask your Grid Control Admin team if it is possible to
upgrade to the last 12c version of Cloud Control, which might be less
complicated than migrating to 13c.
OMS 12.1.0.5 in MOS. For those with an Oracle contract (link taken from
"Share" in the MOS Certifications screen):
https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/CertifyResults?_afrLoop=295719592217065&searchCtx=st%255EANY%257Cpa%255Epi%255E931_Enterprise%2BManager%2BBase%2BPlatform%2B-%2BOMS%257Evi%255E299128%257Epln%255EAny%257E%257C&_afrWindowMode=0
There's no mention of any OS being a "managed target", so I suspect that if
the target database supports an OS, EM 12.1.0.5 will too. But I don't see
that here or in the drilldowns.
