Using Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 13c Ed 2 — Lesson 1: Enterprise Manager Architecture, Agents, Discovery, and Credentials

Technical Scope

• OMS, repository, agents, console, and communication
• agent deployment and secure upload
• target discovery and promotion
• named credentials, preferred credentials, properties, and ownership

Instructor Demonstration

Demonstrate OMS, repository, agents, console, and communication inside a database application stack onboarded, monitored, tested, and operated from a central control plane, then capture the exact configuration, command, transaction, report, or code evidence that proves the result.

Applied Workshop

Implement a controlled workshop covering agent deployment and secure upload and target discovery and promotion, then test a failure or exception involving named credentials, preferred credentials, properties, and ownership.

1. Confirm environment, identity, data, dependencies, and expected result.
2. Complete the product-specific implementation or analysis.
3. Capture commands, configuration, output, logs, transactions, or reports.
4. Explain the operational, security, performance, or business trade-off.

Validation Standard

The Enterprise Manager Architecture, Agents, Discovery, and Credentials result must be reproducible, traceable to approved inputs, and consistent with the expected Oracle product behavior.

• The intended target and ownership are verified.
• The result is supported by reproducible evidence.
• Security, performance, reliability, and support impact are reviewed.
• Unexpected behavior is investigated before acceptance.

Failure Analysis

Diagnose issues in OMS, repository, agents, console, and communication, agent deployment and secure upload, target discovery and promotion, or named credentials, preferred credentials, properties, and ownership without making an unverified production change.

Learners isolate the smallest proven cause, apply a reversible correction, rerun validation, and record the preventive action.
