Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control: Advanced Oem Techniques for the Real World (Oracle In-focus) (Volume 39) First edition

Oracle?s Enterprise Manager Grid Control is recognized as the IT Industry?s leading Oracle database administration and management tool. It is unrivalled in its ability to monitor, manage, maintain and report on entire enterprise grids that comprise hundreds (if not thousands) of Oracle databases and servers following an approach that is consistent and repeatable. However, Enterprise Manager Grid Control may seem daunting even to the most advanced Oracle Administrator. The problem is you know about the power of Enterprise Manager but how do you unleash that power amongst what initially appears to be a maze of GUI-based screens that feature a myriad of links to reports and management tasks that in turn lead you to even more reports and management tasks? This book shows you how to unleash that power. Based on the Author?s considerable and practical Oracle database and Enterprise Manager Grid Control experience you will learn through illustrated examples how to create and schedule RMAN backups, generate Data Guard Standbys, clone databases and Oracle Homes and patch databases across hundreds and thousands of databases. You will learn how you can unlock the power of the Enterprise Manager Grid Control Packs, PlugIns and Connectors to simplify your database administration across your company?s database network, as also the management and monitoring of important Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and the nuances of all important real-time change control using Enterprise Manager. There are other books on the market that describe how to install and configure Enterprise Manager but until now they haven?t explained using a simple and illustrated approach how to get the most out of your Enterprise Manager. This book does just that.
