Oracle APM Job fails to save copy of control file (79346)

Date: 08/2006
Affected NV Version: 7.x.x
OS Version: n/a
Plugin version: Oracle Online
Application version: Oracle


Description: Oracle APM Job fails to save copy of control file.

Symptoms: When configuring the control file location after inputting the location the plugin message pop-up appears with "failed to configure control file save location".

If you attempt to configure a control file save location that is the same location as the current control file you will get this pop up message.

When specifying the location of the control file - it should be a location where your want a copy of this safe to be saved and not the actually location of the file.


If you go through the /backup/restore procedure you notice that we will only restore the tablespaces and that copy of the control file, you then will have to manually place it in desired directory (exact location of the ctl files in oracle) and run recover procedure.
This is all in the user guide for Oracle APM
