Creating an Oracle Management Server - (OMS Release 9.2.0)
by Jeff Hunter, Sr. Database Administrator
Contents
Overview
Installing Oracle Management Server
In most cases, the configuration of the Oracle Management Server will be handled within the Oracle installation
when you select to install the OMS. When installing the Oracle Management Server, the Universal Installer will
automatically run the Oracle Management Server Configuration Assistant. If you select to abort the configuration
process (during the install), you can always kick off the OMS configuration assistant using the emca
executable.
One point to make is that you should install the OMS in a seperate ORACLE_HOME than the database software. Although
this is not necessary, it is a practice that I often perform. I will generally install the OMS as the following:
When using the Oracle Universal Installer, there is an option (after selecting the Oracle Home name and location)
where you will need to select: Oracle9i Management and Integration. When you select this option, the next
will provide you with the option of installing just the Oracle Management Server. Select this option and click
<Next>. The next screen will ask you already have a repository. In most cases, you will not already have
a repository and should select The Management Server will require a new repository. The next screen is
summary screen. Hit <Install> to start the installation of the Oracle Management Server.
Starting / Stopping the Oracle Management Server
Logging into Oracle Enterprise Manager
On Windows, you can select:
Start -> Programs -> Oracle - OraHome920 -> Enterprise Manager Console
On Solaris, you can run the command: $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oemapp console &
Starting the OEM console will bring up the login dialog box. Select the radio button:

This article will contain the steps necessary to create and configure an Oracle Management Server (OMS)
environment in a Solaris environment.
The first step is to create a database that will store the repository information for OMS. For the purpose
of this example, I will create an Oracle9i database named OMSDB.
Starting OMS
Stopping OMS
% $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oemctl start oms
OEMCTL for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.1.0 Production

Starting the Oracle Management Server....
The OMS is now started and ready.
% DISPLAY=:1.0; export DISPLAY
% $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl start
/u01/app/oracle/product/OMS/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl start: httpd started
% $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oemctl stop oms sysman/oem_temp
OEMCTL for Solaris: Version 9.2.0.1.0 Production

Stopping the Oracle Management Server...
% $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl stop
/u01/app/oracle/product/OMS/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl stop: httpd stopped
You can now start the Oracle Enterprise Manager console.
NOTE:
First, make sure to change the default password for the sysman password. Also, create a
seperate account for each DBA on your team.
