Using LineRate for Oracle Enterprise Manager 13c

Hi Arun, Thanks for sharing the details of your configuration. May I know what specifically is not working. Please provide names of the virtual server, pool/real servers and any other configuration objects that are relevant to the problem you are trying to solve. Thank you Madhu

Hi Madhu To start with I am trying to access the EM Console: http://em13c.bavera.net/em I am getting 404.

    The real server console url is: http://omsserver1.bavera.net:7788


    VirtualServer: em13c.bavera.net   Port:80  [ virtual-server vs_ccuc80 ]
    virtual-ip vs_ccuc80_ip
    health-monitor:   mon_ccuc
    Real Server: omsserver1.bavera.net  port: 7788  [ real-server ccuc_omsserver1 ]
    Pool: pool_ccuc


    I have stored all the commands used and configuration in this google doc:

    Thanks
    Arun

Hi Arun, Can you please try the following: Replace the configuration line for virtual-server vs_ccuc80: from: attach virtual-ip vs_ccuc80_ip to: attach virtual-ip vs_ccuc80_ip default Once you have applied this configuration change, please let me know of the outcome. This will assist in progressing this investigation. Thank you Madhu

Hi Madhu, Thank you very much !!! It worked. What the 'default' parameter option did? I will check other services for OEM13c and update you...

Hi Madhu I am getting "status 502 Bad Gateway" after sometimes..If I refresh the page. Also, LineRate Dashboard shows: vs_ccuc80_ip -->vs_ccuc80 [ down] -->pool_ccuc [down] --->ccuc_omsserver1 [down] As of now I have only one real server attached to the pool.

Hi Madhu Seems like the issue could be with the monitor attached: "mon_ccuc" If I dis-associate this monitor from the real server "ccuc_omsserver1", it is working fine...

Hi Madhu I had the "HTTP Response Body": 'Enterprise Manager Console is UP' for this monitor. I removed this and it is working fine now...

Hi Arun, Thanks for the getting back with the troubleshooting information. On the subject of applying the configuration "attach virtual-ip vs_ccuc80_ip default", I would like to provide an explanation for your understanding.

 

1. Please read linerate-getting-started-2-6-1.pdf located at support.f5.com: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/linerate/manuals/product/linerate-getting-started-2-6-1.html Download the PDF and go to the section "Monitoring and Troubleshooting Load Balancing". This section provides an explanation for the need of the "default" keyword. You may wish to provide a hostname or apply the default keyword depending on your requirements.

    

2. Regarding the health monitor, mon_ccuc, I don't see the string 'Enterprise Manager Console is UP' in the configuration you have provided via google docs. Are you using the health monitor's response-body configuration keyword?

    

Syntax: response-body - This is the exact-match feature.

 

"Exact match — Match the exact content of the entire response body. For the response to be successful, the body must exactly match what you specify here. In the CLI, the maximum length of the body match is 10,240 characters."

 

It stipulates "Match the exact content of the entire response body....". An example with line ending would have improved the user's understanding and experience.

 

Line ending flavours have always been problematic and this is another case in point:

 

\r = CR (Carriage Return) // Used as a new line character in Mac OS before X

 

\n = LF (Line Feed) // Used as a new line character in Unix/Mac OS X

 

\r\n = CR + LF // Used as a new line character in Windows

 

Please let me know of any further questions.

 

Thank you

 

Madhu
