Key steps to do an initial deploy of the Enterprise Manager 13c agent on Oracle Linux 6
Please note that my fast track posts are intended for lab use only.
- Install OL6 or deploy VM template from Oracle
- disable iptables
- adduser oem
- Give sudo access with nopasswd – requiretty must be disabled (visudo)
- mkdir /opt/agentHome
- chown oem:oem /opt/agentHome
- yum install make binutils gcc libaio sysstat glibc-common libstdc++
- EM will tell you if anything is missing when you push the agent
- ensure oem host can be reached by it’s default FQDN
- push agent from EM web console:
- setup.. add target .. add targets manually
- enter FQDN of target
- specify /opt/agentHome as the agent home directory
- specify credentials for oem user (with sudo root)
