Hello. Welcome to this presentation in which you see how to register the Oracle VM Manager
from the Oracle Private Cloud Appliance with Oracle Enterprise Manager.
The process to register the Oracle VM Manager involves two steps. The first is performed
on the server that is the active management node of the Oracle Private Cloud Appliance.
On this server, you export the certificate to the Oracle Enterprise Manager agent keystore.
This is done by root, using the command shown in the slide.
Following the export, the cert is imported into the agent keystore by the oracle user,
using the other command shown in the slide.
After importing the certificate, the Oracle VM Manager is ready for registration. Registration
is performed by the cloud admin user which is responsible for the initial configuration
of the Oracle VM Manager and Oracle Enterprise Manager.
We will now see how to perform these steps.
In this terminal session on my local host, I start an ssh session as root on the Oracle
Private Cloud Appliance active management node, using the appliance virtual IP address.
Clear the screen.
Next, gather the first command from a separate source and copy it into the paste buffer.
Paste it into the shell. As you see, the command runs a shell script called ovmkeytool.
Press enter.
Next, enter su oracle to switch to the oracle user.
Enter cd to change the working directory to the oracle home.
Clear the screen.
Next, gather the second command from a separate source and paste it. The emctl command adds
the certificate to the Oracle Enterprise Manager keystore.
Press enter.
Enter the password when prompted.
The password is the word welcome in all lower case letters.
The success message displayed confirms the certificate was successfully added to the
keystore.
To register the Oracle VM Manager, login to Oracle Enterprise Manager as the user responsible
for the complete initial configuration process.
For this configuration, the user oracle_cloud_administrator is responsible, and I am currently logged
in as this user.
This user is also the same user that pushed the agent to the active management node using
the appliance virtual IP address.
Navigate through the Enterprise Menu... to the Cloud option... Then click Oracle VM Infrastructure
Home.
After the Infrastructure Cloud interface appears, click on the Infrastructure Cloud pull down
menu, then click Register OVM Manager.
The Register Oracle VM Manager interface appears.
For the name, enter something recognizable and relevant. This name appears on the appliance
in the Oracle Enterprise Manager navigation interface, and other places in the user interface.
Here, enter OPCC_PCA (separated with underscore).
For the Monitoring Agent, open the list of Oracle virtualization plugin enabled agents
by clicking the magnifying glass icon next to the text input. There is only one available,
and it is the one needed. Click the entry on the list, and click Select.
For the Oracle VM Manager URL, enter tcps://..... For the Oracle VM Manager Console URL, enter
the address a browser uses. In this situation, we include the https protocol, fully qualified
domain name followed by colon and the port.
For the monitoring credentials, enter the username admin, which is the Oracle VM user,
and the Oracle VM admin user password.
Keep the checkbox setting for Automatic Synchronization with Oracle VM Manager. This ensures any configuration
carried out through Oracle VM Manager is updated automatically in Oracle Enterprise Manager.
Click Submit.
A confirmation message appears stating the job is started. To monitor the job, click
Job Details...
The Job Activity List appears. Note the status value is 1 Running. Monitor this field.
In about five minutes, for this registration, the status changes to Succeeded.
Navigate with the Enterprise menu, through Cloud. Then click Oracle VM Infrastructure
Home.
The Oracle VM Manager in our Oracle Private Cloud Appliance has been registered.
You have been given an overview of the process to register the Oracle Private Cloud Appliance
Oracle VM Manager with the Oracle Enterprise Manager. You saw how to prepare the certificate
used to connect the appliance to the management interface by exporting it as root, and importing
it as the oracle user. And you saw how to register the Oracle VM Manager in Oracle Enterprise
Manager.
This ends the presentation. Thank you for watching.
