Oracle OEM 10g agent installation into Cluster nodes

There is not much resource available on the net that mentioned about the installation of Oracle 10g agent for grid control into a Cold Failover cluster.
CFC is generally a OS control cluster.

I would discuss about the setup that I have done.

Basically, this was an installation into a Solaris Sparc OS 9 two node using VCS cluster. Oracle Grid control version 10.2.0.5. Oracle Database Enterprise 10.2.0.3.

I installed through GUI using runInstaller.

I have tried about almost 10 times all in all until the last one manage to get it up monitored by OMS.

The trick is...

1. export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=logical-hostname

2. cd /source
where source is the installation files for oracle 10g agent 10.2.0.5

3.
Instead of just ./runInstaller

use this

./runInstaller -invPtrLoc /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/agent10g/ ORACLE_HOSTNAME=

This will enable the installation of 10g agent to be cluster-aware.

After installation, modify $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/config/emd.properties file
Set
AgentListenOnAllNICs=TRUE
to
AgentListenOnAllNICs=FALSE
