OIC/Integration/11 → Configuring Agent in OIC to connect on premise Oracle Database
--
This is a post on Oracle Integration Cloud highlighting how to configure Agent to connect to On-Premise Oracle Database
(1) Activities:
i. Create an Agent Group in the OIC Console
ii. Download the Connectivity Agent zip file from the OIC Console
iii. Unzip the contents of the zip file, on the on-premises agent machine
iv. Update the “InstallerProfile.cfg” with the details of the OIC environment and on-premises network.
v. Run the agent using : java -jar connectivityagent.jar, on the on-premises agent machine.
(2) Steps:
i. Create an Agent Group in the OIC Console:
ii. Download the Connectivity Agent zip file from the OIC Console:
Download zip file : oic_conn_agent_installer.zip
iii. Unzip the contents of the zip file, on the on-premises agent machine:
Unzip and edit : “InstallerProfile.cfg”
iv. Update the “InstallerProfile.cfg” with the details of the OIC environment and on-premises network:
v. Run the agent using : java -jar connectivityagent.jar, on the on-premises agent machine:
After Agent is started, a new file “pid file” gets generated “inside oic_conn_agent_installer” folder , from where the jar was run. This file contains the process id number (eg. 12980)
When investigating from Task Manager in windows we found below running :
One can cross check Agent status in OIC instance by navigating to Monitoring tab and then click to Agents.
- Points to remember for Agent Group:
i. Only one connectivity agent can be associated with an agent group.
ii. For a single Oracle Integration instance, you can create up to five agent group.
- To Restart the Agent:
Restart the on-premises connectivity agent if required by running the command:
java –jar connectivityagent.jar
- Stop the agent in either of the following ways:
a. Enter ctrl+c on the host on which the agent is running.
b. Search for the connectivity agent process and kill it.
Note : When you shut down the agent server, several minutes pass before the agent is displayed as down on the Agent Monitoring page (as indicated by a red thunderbolt)
