Q & A

3. Database Storage Management Challenges
How do I pinpoint storage related problems in a timely manner
How can I proactively respond to problems
How do I navigate from a database file to a NetApp volume
How can I reduce my dependency on the storage admin
Is there a single tool that addresses all these challenges

4. NetApp Storage System Plug-in for Oracle Enterprise Manager 12c

5. Overview
Consolidates information about Oracle on NetApp environments into the OEM Cloud Control Console providing one interface to monitor databases and storage systems
Automates collecting a comprehensive set of availability, performance and usage metrics with pre-defined thresholds
Enables administrators to analyze performance through various historical views (Last 24 Hours/ Last 7 Days/ Last 31 Days) and facilitates trend analysis and reporting
Provides blackout periods to disable alerting during scheduled maintenance operations, such as hardware upgrades
Built-in reports that map database components like tablespaces, datafiles to storage components like aggregates, volumes
Compares configurations of multiple storage systems to identify differences

10. Configuration Metrics
Compare storage systems to ensure they are deployed as per standards

11. Configuration Metrics
NetApp storage controller details including model, firmware and Data ONTAP versions
Products/options licensed on the NetApp storage system
Disk summary for the NetApp storage system

12. Database to Storage Mapping Reports
Maps database host, SID, tablespaces, database files, file sizes, mount points to corresponding NetApp storage systems, aggregates, volumes, volume sizes, volume used and available sizes

13. Leveraging Other OEM Features
Monitoring Templates
Simplify the task of standardizing monitoring settings by creating a template based on optimal settings once and applying them to any number of NetApp storage systems
Corrective Actions
Ensure that routine responses to alerts are automatically executed, thereby saving administrators time and ensuring problems are dealt with before they noticeably impact users
