Abstract
dbsnmp (known more commonly as the Oracle
Intelligent Agent (OIA)) is the name of the Oracle process
that broadcasts database status information via SNMP. Oracle
Support confirms that it is valid to configure dbsnmp to send
messages to NetView and other SNMP compliant network management
applications without the use of Oracle Enterprise Manager
(OEM). Yet, there is too little information to be found in
Oracles UNIX installation documentation for the RDBMS.
While setting up dbsnmp to work solely with
SNMP consoles Oracle Support is of some assistance, but many
questions remain unanswered. OEM, which is the monitoring
tool provided by Oracle Corporation, runs only on NT and Windows
95. Some good OIA configuration information can be found in
the OEM documentation, but there is nothing that would lead
you to look there if OEM is not part of your messaging/monitoring
architecture. Heres some information to get you started.
