After I post about how to install Oracle Enterprise manager (em12c) today I will talk how
to deploy em12c agent
There are two methods to do that
1) Configuring Automatic Discovery
2) Adding targets manually
I will describe the both :) each one separately.
Before deploy you need to decide if you want to use Oracle user or root user the below
steps you have to do before using oracle:
[root@em12c ~]# vi /etc/sudoers
And change and add the following lines:
Comment this line:
#Defaults requiretty
Add the below line
oracle ALL=(ALL) ALL

And remove ! From this line:
Defaults visiblepw
Now On em12c there’s something called privilege delegation
Privilege delegation allows a logged-in user to perform an activity with the privileges of
another user. Sudo and PowerBroker are privilege delegation tools that allow a logged-
in user to be assigned these privileges. These privilege delegation settings will be used
for all provisioning and patching activities on these hosts.
