Oracle 13c has been introduced with enhanced GUI and with lot of new features.

Below are the steps for upgrading OEM 12C ( 12.1.0.5) to OEM 13C ( 13.2.0)

Current OEM version – 12.1.0.5

Repository DB version – 12.1.0.2

Upgrade OEM version – 13.2.0.0

PREREQUISITES:

1. Apply the latest PSU patch to the rdbms home of repository database

2. Run utlrp.sql to make sure no invalid objects.

SQL> SELECT owner, object_name, object_type
FROM   dba_objects
WHERE  status = 'INVALID'
AND    owner IN ('SYS', 'SYSTEM', 'SYSMAN', 'MGMT_VIEW', 'DBSNMP', 'SYSMAN_MDS');  2    3    

no rows selected

3.  Set optimizer_adaptive_features to FALSE;

SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL>  alter system set optimizer_adaptive_features=FALSE scope=both;

System altered

4.Verify that all the OMS have the same version of Plugins deployed.( Run from SYSMAN)

set serveroutput on
declare
  oms_guids mgmt_medium_string_array := mgmt_medium_string_array();
  oms_names mgmt_medium_string_array := mgmt_medium_string_array();
  mismatches smp_emd_nvpair_array := smp_emd_nvpair_array();
begin
  select host_url, em_plugin_util.get_guid_from_name(unique_oms_name) 
  bulk collect into oms_names, oms_guids
  from gc_oms_info;
  for j in 1..oms_guids.count
  loop
    dbms_output.put_line('Checking mismatch for OMS ' || oms_names(j));
    mismatches := smp_emd_nvpair_array();
    em_plugin_inventory.get_plugin_mismatch(oms_guids(j), mismatches);
    if mismatches is null or mismatches.count = 0
    then
      dbms_output.put_line('No mismatch found for OMS ' || oms_names(j));
    else
      dbms_output.put_line('Mismatch found for OMS ' || oms_names(j));
      for i in 1..mismatches.count
      loop
        dbms_output.put_line('Plug-in on repository: ' || nvl(mismatches(i).name, 'None') || 
                          ', Plug-in on OMS: ' || nvl(mismatches(i).value, 'None'));
      end loop;
    end if;
  end loop;
end;
/

Checking mismatch for OMS bttstdev64.stc.com.sa:4889_Management_Service
No mismatch found for OMS bttstdev64.stc.com.sa:4889_Management_Service

PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.

5. Check for stuck jobs:

SELECT job_type, status, cnt 
FROM ( 
    SELECT job_type, status, count(*) as cnt 
        FROM   MGMT_JOB_EXEC_SUMMARY join MGMT_JOB_TYPE_INFO using (job_type_id) 
        WHERE  status NOT IN(3,4,5,8,18,19,23) 
        group  by job_type, status 
        order  by 3, 1, 2 
) 
where cnt > 10000;

no rows selected

6. Remove obsolete pluggins:

Below are the obsolete in 13c : ( if any is installed , please remove them )

EMC Symmetrix Array (oracle.em.sesy)
EMC Celerra Storage (oracle.em.secs)
EMC Clariion Array (oracle.em.secl)
Microsoft Biz Talk Server (oracle.em.smbs)
Exalogic Elastic Cloud Infrastructure (oracle.em.soee)

Below are the steps for removing obsolete plugins:

SETUP -> EXTENSIBILITY -> PLUGINS 

 

SELECT THE PLUGIN , that need to be removed and Undeploy

UNDEPLOY FROM -> MANAGEMENT SERVERS

7. Grant below privileges on repository database:

GRANT EXECUTE ON dbms_random TO dbsnmp; 
GRANT EXECUTE ON dbms_random TO sysman;
REVOKE EXECUTE ON dbms_random FROM public;

8. Stop the OMS and the agent on OMS server:

-- Go to OMS HOME

./emctl stop oms all 

-- GO to AGENT_HOME on ( OMS server)

./emctl stop agent

UPGRADE:

Copy the Oracle 13c software to your server.( Dont unzip them ) .

SUPPLY A NEW OMS HOME LOCATION:

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the end root.sh script will pop up . Please run the same as root user.

 

root@bttstdev64:~# /data/app/oracle/oms13c/allroot.sh

With this OMS upgrade has been completed. Lets open the URL.

 

 

 

UPGRADE AGENTS:

Once OMS upgrade is done, we can upgrade the agents to 13.1 version .  However you still continue using the same old 12c plug-ins . 

SETUP -> MANAGE CLOUD CONTROL -> UPGRADE AGENT

 

 

Now click on NOT UPGRADABLE AGENTS , to check which agents cant be upgraded directly. 

For HP-UX platform we need to download the latest agents and apply it .

Go to SELF UPDATE and DOWNLOAD and then APPLY for hpux  platform  

Once update is done, Follow the same process of upgrading agents.
