Oracle Business Intelligence 10g Enterprise Edition is a complete solution for analyzing information across an enterprise. Delivered primarily through an interactive dashboard, Oracle Business Intelligence EE comprises a set of servers that access data from disparate sources, present it to users via a semantic model, allow them to create calculations and alerts, and distribute reports to users via the Web and other delivery mechanisms. Part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware family of products, Oracle Business Intelligence EE works alongside your databases, application servers, and applications to provide insight into your business. As business intelligence becomes pervasive within organizations and changes from being a "nice-to-have" to a "must-have", the importance of managing the performance, availability, and configurations of your business intelligence components has become increasingly important. DBAs and systems administrators now need to count business intelligence components in their list of systems that they need to manage, a situation that takes on more and more significance as business intelligence becomes the "eyes and ears" of the business.
Oracle Enterprise Manager Background

Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control is a family of products designed to help administrator manage their estate of Oracle-based, and non-Oracle, applications, and servers. Designed to make administrators and DBAs more productive and better able to spot potential issues before they arise, Oracle Enterprise Manager contains components to monitor server performance, maximize quality of service, manage configurations centrally and monitor availability against thresholds and service level agreements.
The Business Intelligence Management Pack

Traditionally, Oracle Enterprise Manager has been used by administrators to monitor and managed databases and application servers, together with the applications that run on them. With the release of version 10.2.0.4 of Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g, this capability has now been extended to Oracle Business Intelligence EE. Using metrics and data collected from agents running on the servers hosting your business intelligence components, together with data collected from database tables populated by server components, it is now possible to manage your business intelligence components together with your other enterprise servers and applications.

In this article, you will see how Oracle Enterprise Manager can be configured to manage your business intelligence components, monitoring the performance of your servers, setting thresholds and alerts to warn you of potential issues, monitoring service levels, and managing the configuration of the various components that make up Oracle Business Intelligence EE.
Setup and Configuration



To start using the Oracle Business Intelligence Management Pack, you will need to install and configure the following software components (see Downloads portlet):

• - Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g Release 4, usually on a dedicated server
• - Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g Release 4 Management Agent, on each server that you wish to monitor
• - Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 10.1.3.2 or later
• - Optionally, Oracle Data Warehouse Administration Console 7.9 or later

The Oracle Business Intelligence Management Pack is automatically installed when you upgrade Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g Release 2 to Release 4 (10.2.0.4), although it has to be licensed separately. If you do not already have an installation of Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control 10g, you will need to download and install the base 10.2.x release from OTN and then upgrade it, using the 10.2.0.4 Patch Installer, to this latest version, remembering to also install, configure and upgrade any Oracle Management Agents on your managed servers including those used to host your Oracle Business Intelligence components.
Once you have Oracle Enterprise Manager 10.2.0.4 installed and configured, your next step is to ensure that Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition is configured to work with the Business Intelligence Management Pack. The Business Intelligence Management Pack relies on the usage tracking tables and scheduler tables that are configured post-installation, together with a JMX agent that has to be separately configured before it can be started.
