Re: Oracle Intelligent Agent will not start

FP;

1. Install SNMP Service on your machine & make sure it is running properly.
2. Make sure the machine has a Fully Qualified Domain Name for its netbios name.. i.e right-click the machine name=>properties=>network identification
3. Clear out *.q files fom $ORACLE_HOME/networ/agent directories. Also $ORACLE_HOME/networ/agent/services.ora & $TNS_ADMIN/snmp*
4. Clear out nimconf.log file
5. From the CMD, execute:

    agentctl start agent

6. if this does not work, enable tracing by editing:

    $TNS_ADMIN/snmp_rw.ora file:
    add tracing_enabled=true

           tracing_level=16 ..I think...

7. This should log a ton of message in the nmiconf.log file..
