Resolution

Workaround: Unconfigure application monitoring and then configure it again, using valid user account details via Wizard.

Alternatively, modify the following attributes for the Oracle resource:
■ Domain
■ UserName
■ EncryptedPasswd

1) On the virtual machine where you have configured the Oracle databases, type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter:


     haconf -makerw


This command sets the configuration mode to read/write.

 

2) Find the Oracle resource name. Type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter:


     hares -list


This command lists all the resources that are configured for monitoring.
Typically, the Oracle resources are named as "Oracle_instance name" You must modify the attributes for all the Oracle resources.

 

3) Modify the Domain attribute. Type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter:


    hares -modify resource_name Domain domain or hostname

 

4) Modify the UserName attribute. Type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter:
 

    hares -modify resource_name UserName username

 

5) Encrypt the user account password. Type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter:


   vcsencrypt -agent password

 

6) Note the encrypted password.

 

7) Modify the EncryptedPasswd attribute. Type the following on the command prompt and then press Enter.


   hares -modify resource_name EncryptedPasswd encrypted password

Issue/Introduction

This issue occurs while configuring application monitoring for Oracle databases. On the Oracle Database Selection panel, the configuration wizard enables you to select the databases and provide the following information:
■ Domain or hostname: The name of the domain or host to which the user belongs in whose context Oracle was installed.
■ User Name: The name of the domain user or local user who has Database Administrator privileges for Oracle.
■ Password: Password for the user account provided.
The wizard proceeds and completes the configuration even if any of these details are invalid. However, the configured components go in an unknown state later.
