Adding Cluster ASM Targets By Using the Declarative Process

To add a cluster ASM target declaratively by specifying target monitoring properties, follow these steps:

Note:

A database system is automatically created on discovery of an Oracle Database. The system is built on the new target and association model that can be used to monitor the database's storage, connectivity, and high availability. This also enables you to monitor and manage applications that are dependent on the database. Database System topology can be used to view relationship between various entities within the database system as well as external dependencies.

A database system contains a primary database and related targets such as Listener and Automatic Storage Management. It also includes standby databases and their related targets if the database is in a Data Guard configuration. However, you cannot create database systems for standby databases.

  1. From the Setup menu, select Add Target, then select Add Targets Manually.

  2. On the Add Targets Manually page, select Add Target Declaratively.

  3. In the Add Target Declaratively dialog box, select Cluster ASM.

  4. In the Monitoring Agent field, select the Management Agent monitoring the database.

  5. Click Add...

  6. On the Configure Cluster ASM: Properties page, specify a name for the Cluster ASM, the Oracle home path, username and password, role, cluster name, and service name.

    Note:

    The Service Name is used to establish the cluster ASM connection. It should be one of the service names the cluster ASM registers with the listeners.

  7. You can add instances, ASM IO server instances, and ASM proxy instances by clicking Add in the respective sections.

    Click Test Connection to test the connection made to the cluster ASM target using the specified monitoring credentials.

    OK.
