OCI Linux

This section describes the steps to set up the Oracle Cloud Agent and deploy the JMS plug-ins on an Oracle Linux Compute Instance. For Oracle Linux instances in different region and/or tenancy, and other supported Linux platforms, follow the On-premises Linux instructions to set up Oracle Management Agent.

Note

The recommended approach for onboarding OCI Linux instances to the fleet is using the fleet's Add Managed Instance(s) action in the Managed Instances view. See instructions in the OCI Linux section in the Manual Method for Installing Management Agent and Deploying JMS Plug-in.

Steps

  1. Copy the compressed file and the configuration file to a new folder.
  2. Extract the compressed file into the new folder. For example, extracting jms_setup_v9.0.56_linux_rhel-x86_64.tar.gz will create a folder named jms_setup_v9.0.56_linux_rhel-x86_64 within the new folder.
  3. (Optional diagnostic check):
    • Add jms.diagnostic = true to the JMS_agent_configuration.rsp file.
    • Navigate to the extracted folder from Step 2 and execute ./installJMSAgent.sh as a root user.

    Depending on the operating system and agent type, the results will be similar to:
