RE: Database Control on AIX 5L Requires xServer in EM 10g

Qaiser/Marco,

Both products need to be able to manipulate bit mapped graphics - DB Control to display graphs and Oracle Reports server for bit-mapped reports - and that requires an X-Server on UNIX/Linux. You can use Xvfb - Google for it: It is simple to setup, but requires root access.

I'm not amazed. The Oracle reports server on unix has the same idiocracy.

AIX 5.3 (64-bit)
OEM Database Control 10.1.0.4
JDK 1.4.2 Metalink Note:282615.1 states "OMS on AIX 5L Requires xServer in EM 10g". I have a TAR going on with Oracle. Per Oracle analyst we need to keep XServer running for the agent as long as the dbconsole is running. This means DB Control is dependent on the client from where it was started. Shutting down the client from where X emulator was running, will bring DB Control down.  

I find this hard to believe that a monitoring product is dependent on X emulator. Has anybody experienced this?
