Cluster Agent Installation

Installed Grid Control Management Agent on a Cluster Node via OUI and configured it in Grid Control.

GRID CONTROL: Applying multiple patches at once

Our consultant proposed to just install some (used in CS on every 10.2.0.4 agent installation) patches to try to solve the agent issue on a cluster node. (One Node sees all Dbs, other doesn't)

Uses following Metalink Note to apply multiple patches at once:

733925.1

MIGRATION: Test import of Database

Test import of intranet Database for migration with new Character set on Unix (Source Windows).

FROMCHAR WE8MSWIN1252
TOCHAR WE8ISO8859P15

CSSCAN lists many lossy characters. Decided with developers to just try what happens.

Errors:
ORA-19815, ORA-16038, ORA-19809:
db_recovery_file_dest_size (online changeable) was set to 4GB, which let the import get stuck when the archive logfiles filled that space up. Extended to 8 GB.
Note to self: Disable archivelog mode if creating a new DB with import.

Got the idea to this Blog from a wikihow "tutorial"...

Since I'm always bad at remembering what I did the last day... I think that's a good Idea ^^
