Introduction<\/h3>\n

I am currently setting up a new “Base Image” virtual machine (Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6) which will be used to create 6 brand new Oracle database servers requested by a customer. Besides installing and configuring the OS, I also have to install 3 Oracle Homes and one Cloud Control Agent 13c.<\/p>\n

An OMS13c server already exists including an Agent patched with the EM-AGENT Bundle Patch 13.2.0.0.181031 (28680866) :
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [agent13c] opatch lsinventory | grep 28680866<\/span>
\nPatch 28680866 : applied on Tue Nov 13 17:32:48 CET 2018
\n 28680866, 28744209, 28298159, 25141245, 28533438, 28651962, 28635152
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [agent13c]<\/code>
\nHowever, when I wanted to deploy the CC13c Agent on my Master VM from the Cloud Control 13c web interface (Setup > Add Target > Add Targets Manually > Install Agent on Host<\/em>), the Agent was successfully installed but… without the patch 28680866 \ud83d\ude41 . That means I will have to install the patch manually. Considering that the goal of creating a “Base Image” VM for this project is to quickly and easily delivering 6 database servers, having to install AND to patch the Agent on each server is not very efficient and doesn’t fit with what I want.
\nI had so to find a better way to deploy a patched Agent and the solution has been to use an Agent Gold Image. It allowed me to do exactly what I wanted.<\/p>\n

In this post I will show how I have set this up.<\/p>\n

Deploying the Agent<\/h3>\n

Here is how we can deploy the Agent on the Base Image VM. From Cloud Control 13c, we click on Setup > Add Target > Add Targets Manually > Install Agent on Host<\/em> :
\n\"1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then we insert the name of the target VM, we select the approriate platform…
\n\"2_2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…and we specify the directory in which we want to install the Agent (Agent Home) :
\n\"3_2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Everything is now ready to start the deployment. We can click on Next<\/em> to see the review of the deployment configuration and on Deploy Agent<\/em> to start.
\nOnce the Agent is correctly deployed, the status should be like that :
\n\"4\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As explained above we can see that the Agent is not patched with the Bundle Patch of October 2018 :
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/agent13c\/agent_13.2.0.0.0\/OPatch\/ [agent13c] .\/opatch lsinventory | grep 28680866<\/span>
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/agent13c\/agent_13.2.0.0.0\/OPatch\/ [agent13c]<\/code>
\nWe must patch it manually…<\/p>\n

Updating OPatch<\/h3>\n

Before installing a patch it is highly recommended to update the OPatch utility first. All version of the tool are available here<\/a>. The current one my VM is 13.8.0.0.0 :
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/OPatch\/oms13cAgent\/ [agent13c] opatch version<\/span>
\nOPatch Version: 13.8.0.0.0<\/strong>
\n<\/br>
\nOPatch succeeded.<\/code><\/p>\n

We must use the following command to update OPatch :
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/OPatch\/oms13cAgent\/ [agent13c] unzip -q p6880880_139000_Generic.zip<\/span>
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/OPatch\/oms13cAgent\/ [agent13c] cd 6880880\/<\/span>

\nYou probably noticed that since OEM 13cR2 the way to update OPatch has changed : no more easy unzip, we have to use a Java file instead (don’t really understand why…). <\/p>\n

Patching the Agent<\/h3>\n

As OPatch is now up to date we can proceed with the installation of the patch 28680866 :
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/agent13c\/patch\/ [agent13c] unzip -q p28680866_132000_Generic.zip<\/span>

\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/agent13c\/patch\/28680866\/28680866\/ [agent13c]<\/code><\/p>\n

Let’s restart the Agent and check that the patch has been applied :
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/agent13c\/patch\/28680866\/28680866\/ [agent13c] emctl start agent<\/span>

\nPatch 28680866 : applied on Mon Dec 03 17:17:25 CET 2018
\n 28680866, 28744209, 28298159, 25141245, 28533438, 28651962, 28635152
\noracle@basevm:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/software\/agent13c\/patch\/28680866\/28680866\/ [agent13c]<\/code><\/p>\n

Perfect. The Agent is now patched but… <\/p>\n

Installing the DB plugin<\/h3>\n

…what about its plugins ? We can see from the OMS13c server that the Agent doesn’t have the database plugin installed :
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c] emcli login -username=sysman<\/span>
\nEnter password :
\n<\/br>
\nLogin successful
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c] emcli list_plugins_on_agent -agent_names=\"basevm.xx.yyyy.com:3872\"<\/span>
\nThe Agent URL is https:\/\/basevm.xx.yyyy.com:3872\/emd\/main\/ -

\n<\/br>
\nOracle Home oracle.sysman.oh 13.2.0.0.0
\nSystems Infrastructure oracle.sysman.si 13.2.2.0.0<\/code><\/p>\n

This is normal. As no Oracle database are currently running on the VM, the DB plugin was not installed automatically during the Agent deployment. We have to install it manually using the following command :
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c] emcli deploy_plugin_on_agent -agent_names=\"basevm.xx.yyyy.com:3872\" -plugin=oracle.sysman.db<\/span>
\nAgent side plug-in deployment is in progress
\nUse \"emcli get_plugin_deployment_status -plugin=oracle.sysman.db\" to track the plug-in deployment status.
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c]<\/code><\/p>\n

To check the status of the plugin installation :

\nThe Agent is now exactly in the state in which we want to deploy it on all 6 servers (OPatch up to date, Agent patched, DB plugin installed).
\nIt’s now time to move forward with the creation of an Agent Gold Image.<\/p>\n

Creating the Agent Gold image<\/h3>\n

Going back to Cloud Control we can navigate to Setup > Manage Cloud Control > Gold Agent Images<\/em> :
\n\"Screenshot<\/a>
\nWe click on Manage All Images<\/em>…
\n\"6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

…then on Create<\/em> and we give a name to our Image :
\n\"7\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once the Image created, we must create its 1st version. We click on the Image name and then on Action > Create<\/em>. From here we can select the Agent configured earlier on the VM. It will be the source of the Gold Image :
\n\"8\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The creation of the Gold Agent Image and its 1st version can be also done from command-line with the following emcli<\/em> command :
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c] emcli create_gold_agent_image -image_name=\"agent13c_gold_image\" -version_name=\"gold_image_v1\" -source_agent=\"basevm.xx.yyyy.com:3872\"<\/span>
\nA gold agent image create operation with name \"GOLD_AGENT_IMAGE_CREATE_2018_12_03_22_04_20_042\" has been submitted.
\nYou can track the progress of this session using the command \"emcli get_gold_agent_image_activity_status -operation_name=GOLD_AGENT_IMAGE_CREATE_2018_12_03_22_04_20_042\"
\n<\/br>
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/ [oms13c] emcli get_gold_agent_image_activity_status -operation_name=GOLD_AGENT_IMAGE_CREATE_2018_12_03_22_04_20_042<\/span>
\nInputs
\n------
\nGold Image Version Name : gold_image_v1
\nGold Image Name : agent13c_gold_image
\nSource Agent : basevm.xx.yyyy.com:3872
\nWorking Directory : %agentStateDir%\/install
\n<\/br>
\nStatus
\n-------
\nStep Name Status Error Cause Recommendation
\nCreate Gold Agent Image IN_PROGRESS
\n<\/br>
\noracle@oms13c:\/home\/oracle\/<\/code><\/p>\n

The Gold Agent Image is now created. We can start to deploy it on the others servers in the same way we did at the first deployment, but by selecting this time With Gold Image<\/em> :
\n\"9\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Once the Agent is deployed on the server we can see that OPatch is up to date :
\noracle@srvora01:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/agent13c\/ [agent13c] opatch version<\/span>
\nOPatch Version: 13.9.3.3.0
\n<\/br>
\nOPatch succeeded.
\noracle@srvora01:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/agent13c\/ [agent13c]<\/code><\/p>\n

The Agent Bundle Patch is installed :
\noracle@srvora01:\/u01\/app\/oracle\/agent13c\/ [agent13c] opatch lsinventory | grep 28680866<\/span>
\nPatch 28680866 : applied on Mon Dec 03 17:17:25 CET 2018

Conclusion<\/h3>\n

Using a Gold Image drastically ease the management of OMS Agents in Oracle environments. In addition to allowing massive deployment on targets, it is also possible to manage several Gold Images with different patch levels. The hosts are simply subscribed to a specific Image and follow its life cycle (new patch, new plugins, aso…).<\/p>\n
