3 Application Server Enterprise Management

Enterprise Manager offers the following management packs for Oracle Application Server Enterprise Management:

The following sections in this chapter describe the licensed features for these packs.

Diagnostics Pack

This pack ensures high availability of mission-critical applications by reducing the complex tasks of diagnosing and correcting application performance problems, lowering the costs of managing web-based applications spanning multiple systems.

Features of the Diagnostics Pack

The following features are available for the Application Server, the Application Server host, and all members of Application Server, such as OC4J, OHS, Web Cache, and Groups:

  • Performance monitoring (Application Server components and host)

  • Event notifications: notification methods, rules, and schedule

  • Event history and metric history

  • Blackouts

  • Monitoring templates

Features of Oracle Application Diagnostics for Java (Oracle AD4J)

Oracle AD4J diagnoses the root cause of Java application performance problems in Java applications with very low performance overhead. The following features are available for Oracle AD4J:

  • Production diagnostics with no application instrumentation, saving time in reproducing problems

  • Visibility into Java activity, including in-flight transactions, allowing administrators to proactively identify issues rather than diagnosing after-the-fact

  • Tracing of transactions from Java to Oracle Database and vice-versa, enabling faster resolution of problems that span different tiers

Note:

In earlier releases, two additional features were part of this pack: Patch Deployment (Patch Oracle Application Server and View Patch Cache, Patch staging) and Clone Oracle Home. These features are no longer part of the Configuration Management Pack. They are now part of the Oracle Provisioning Pack, which is licensed with Enterprise Manager.

Provisioning Pack for Application Server

The Oracle Provisioning Pack for Application Server automates deployment of Oracle Application Server software, applications, and patches. It provides easy and scalable critical data center operations, resulting in lower operational risk and cost of ownership. This pack provides functionality for "bare-metal" provisioning of operating systems and Oracle Application Server software images, cloning of existing Oracle Application Server installations, and operating system and Oracle Application Server patching.

Enterprise Manager versions 10g 10.2.0.2 and later enable you to also orchestrate the provisioning and patching process through Deployment Procedures. These are a set of "best practices" shipped out-of-box that you can also extend by customizing according to your needs. You can reuse the deployment procedures, and you can export and import them across environments that would involve creating a single procedure to do operations across test environments and production. The Deployment Procedures are also hot-pluggable, and enable you to add procedures as Oracle releases them to Oracle MetaLink.

The user interface can change, and links cab be added or removed. Consequently, a general guideline for which links should be licensable and therefore not accessible for the Provisioning Pack is that any links in the following categories are licensable under this pack, and should therefore not be accessible without licensing:

Licensed Links

The following links are licensable with the Oracle Provisioning Pack for Application Server, and should not be accessible if the Provisioning Pack has not been licensed and enabled. The links apply to any Oracle Application Server related target type (such as Oracle Application Server, Oracle HTTP Server, Oracle Web Cache, and OC4J) as well as the hosts on which these targets reside.
