Title
How to select an Agent Manager for the Oracle CRS agent? -
Description
When installing the CRS (cluster ready services) agent there is no option to select the Foglight Agent Manager (FglAM) the agent should run on.
How to select the Agent Manager for the CRS agent as you can do it for other database agents?
-
Cause
By default the optimal FglAM will be chosen, means the FglAM that has the least agents on it. -
Resolution
If you want a specific FglAM to hold the CRS agent, do the following workaround:
- Go to "Administration | Rules & Notifications | Manage Registry Variables"
- Find the variable "DBO_Installer_RemoteClient_Name"
- change the value from "Optimal" to the FglAM name the agent should run on.
The change needs to be done before you run the auto discovery wizard to set up the CRS agent.
-
Additional Information
Please note: No 'monitoring capacity limit' warning will display, so it is advised to manually track the number of monitoring agents assigned. Resources(JVM Heap) may become depleted if too many agents are deployed to the selected FglAM, and may require manual rehoming(delete agent, change registry variable, redeploy agent) at a later time. An additional specific FglAM can be deployed to home the CRS agents, and should not affect licensing limits.
