Auto Discovery of Targets in EM12c

Using Enterprise Manager 11 and earlier, you needed to install an Agent any time a new Server was introduced in your datacentre.

Then after you would have created a new Database or any other Target Type, you would need to perform a discovery using the Agent that was monitoring the specific server.

Starting with Enterprise Manager 12c your Targets can get discovered automatically even if no Agent has been installed yet.

Installing YAST to activate Linux Host Administration Page

While updating my training environment today I noticed that for one of the Hosts YAST was not yet installed.

When in the OEM GC Host Administration page on Linux, you need to have YAST (Yet Another Setup Tool) installed on your Linux box.

Only after installing this, you will be able to display the administration features in this page.
