Hi,

Can anyone here please help answer my question.
My question is:

I have two differenct databases with nsame name.
Database 1 named DBX is on server SERVERX used for dev
Database 2 named DBX is on server SERVERY used for test

I want to install OEM Agent on both server and access from one single OEM 11g Grid control.

What I find is that, the OEM seems to get confused when I try to login to the A database from OEM.

How should I configure OEM or Agent so that OEM can be used to login to both DBs?

Regards

I would delete the databases from Grid Control, and re-register them with the command line interface. That way you have full control, and can choose any name you like for the target, which is better than having Grid Control trying to guess. Here's an example (you'll have top remove the line breaks):
emcli add_target -name="cli"
-type="oracle_database" 
-host="jwdell.bplc.co.za" 
-credentials="UserName:dbsnmp;password:dbsnmp;Role:Normal"
-properties="SID:orcl;Port:1521;OracleHome:\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1;MachineName:jwdell"

1) Delete databases from Grid control (as John Watson suggests) or better, remove the "Host".

2) Go to Targets -> Databases and click on "Add".

This will open a window where you enter the host name (server) and Grid Control will automatically add all targets from that server.
For databases it will assign a name like {db name}.{server name or domain name} or use the db_unique_name.
From the list of targets, you can choose which ones to add.
