EM12c agent Installation using offline patching

 Oracle announced new release for Oracle Enterprise Manager cloud control (12.1.0.4). There no changes n the installation steps from the prior releases. After configuration of EM 12c Management Server  we need to Install agents on all required target that should be monitored in EM 12c management Server.

If all your targets are on same platform as of OMS operating system then the agent software will be ready and you can proceed with the deployment. If you are planning  to Install the agent software on other platform then you need to enable self update for downloading the agent software for other platforms.

If there is no internet connection to your OMS server then you can Install these updates in an offline mode.

Setup > Provisioning and Patching > offline patching





>> Download file "em_catalog.zip" from listed URL


>> If you have already configured the software library then no need to configure it again.


>> click on "software library"



>> directory "patch_home" should have read/write access for OMS user









>> We need to download this patch and import it in the catalog

[oracle@oem12c bin]$ ./emcli import_update_catalog -file=/u01/em12c_home/patch_home/p9348486_112000_Generic.zip -omslocal
Error: The command name "import_update_catalog" is not a recognized command.
Run the "help" command for a list of recognized commands.
You may also need to run the "sync" command to synchronize with the current OMS.
[oracle@oem12c bin]$ ./emcli import_update_catalog -file=/u01/em12c_home/patch_home/p9348486_112000_Generic.zip -omslocal

- If you receive this error it means you're not using the correct "emcli" utility and we need to extract the correct emcli utility.
