It was DNS! Now it works.

Thank you all for your support.

Eric Lansu

  Thanks for your input, Steve. It doesn't work though :-(   =20
  I had OMS-server running -and working- locally on my NT-ws first, but = I completely removed all traces of it. I have 256M ram in my = workstation, so it should be enough.
  =20
  I can launch the DBA-studio in stand-alone, and connect to the = OEM-repository, running on the same machine as the OMS-server.

  The OMS-server is running properly on the Solaris;



  OEMCTRL for Solaris: Version 2.1.0.0.0=20   Copyright (c) 1998, 1999 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.

  The Oracle Management Server on host [octopus] is functioning = properly.

   =20
    The server has been up for 0 17:50:03.501    =20
    Target database session count: 0 (session sharing is off)     Operations queued for processing: 0
    Number of OMS systems in domain: 1 (octopus)     Number of administrators logged in: 0     Repository session pool depth: 15
    Repository session count: 6 in-use and 2 available, pool efficiency: = 99%



  When running the conssole on the Solaris, the number of administrators = logged in counts 1.

  I can ping the server, but there may be a problem with DNS, i can't = resolve the service-name. We will change this this morning, and retry. = Eventhough I can, and do access it by the IP-address.

  The command you gave me doesn't work;
  $ vppctl -start
  But I started the dbsnmp-listener, and the OMS-server. Isn't that = enough to start the OEM-console remote? It works locally.....

  The bottom-line is, it still doesn't work. :-(

    What version of OEM?
=20

    OMS-server on Solaris and OEM-client on NT, OEM 2.1, That's my setup = too but mine works :-) I have experienced the NT client hanging a = couple of times... it takes a lot of resource to display that annoying = spinning world when logging in. Is there anyway to get rid of that? = Anyway, I killed the jrew process from Task Manager and tried it again = successfully. RAM=3D128M.=20

=20

    Have you ever had the OMS-server running on the same NT box? If it's = still running try killing it.=20

=20

    Have you tried launching DBA Studio? (OEM2.1) Can you launch DBA = Studio in stand alone mode?

=20

    Have you tried configuring a WinNT OMS-server? If not try it. If OEM = connects to the local NT OMS-server then you know there's a = communication problem between Solaris-OMS and NT-OEM. Make sure the = Solaris version of OMS is compatible with the NT-OEM.

    Good Luck,

      I was a bit wrong, but still it doesn't work;

      The OEM-server was down, so the NT-console gave me this message. =
Now I restarted the server, and the same login just 'hangs' No messages, = no console, just the login-window working to do nothing :-(

      So it looks like the login sees something - it doesn't give me the = unable to connect message - but gets no response, and doesn't time-out.

        Dear fellow DBA's
        =20
        I have installed Oracle OEM server on a Sun Sparc-solaris =
system, and I can run the console on this machine locally. But, I don't = want to do this, I want to run the console on a fat-client on NT.

        I connect as the sysman at the IP-address of the OEM-server, but = it gives me a 'VTK-1000: Unable to connect to the management server = <IP>. Please verify that you have entered the correct host name and the = status of the Oracle Management Server' message.

        I can connect with SQL-plus, UNIX etc. but this doesn't seem to = work. I re-installed the client-side, recreated the repository with the = assistant at the Sun, the management server, the listener and the = dbsnmp-client are running.

        I don't know what to do anymore; do you????

        Met vriendelijke groeten,
