Hi,

recently had a stuck MMON on 11gR2 that caused having no snapshots at all. My lesson learned: Check alert log at corresponding time.

Don't know if it's helpful, but MMON should be a good starting point for investigation for AWR issues.

Regards
Martin

Today I added them to the 12c Cloud Control and enabled management pack access for the Diagnostic & Tuning packs. Immediately the database began collecting hourly AWR snapshots, level TYPICAL. The problem is that all snapshots are empty. No data at all.

I don't remember having to do that in previous versions... However, the absence of DBSNMP packages associated with ADDM should not result in empty snapshots, or should it? As I understand it, AWR snapshots are created by the database using native functionality, not by the EMCC agent?
