define it before running
ORAUSER.COM
at any time after the installation. Note that the
Enterprise Manager Agent and HAS services can only be started up after setting up this batch queue logical name and running
ORAUSER.COM
.
The two components record the batch queue name in the installation, and use that as a reference for subsequent calls to the services. The default batch queue
SYS$BATCH generally points to a batch queue that runs under a lower priority (usually, 2) than the priority of a normal user (usually, 4). Therefore, it is inappropriate to use the default queue for the two services. This would result in poor and, in some cases, defective performance of the two services.
The number of jobs submitted for the EMAgent batch queue depends on the number of monitoring targets which include databases and listeners. An approximation of two to five monitoring targets would be a good number for the job_limit. In the case of
HAS, a job_limit of about 10 would be sufficient. The batch queue priority should be the same as all other Oracle processes, which is typically 4 on a standard VMS system.
Setup Tasks for Oracle Products
The following products require preinstallation steps to be completed before you install
Oracle Database software:

Section , "Precompilers and Tools"
Section , "Network and System Management Products"
Precompilers and Tools
The following sections list the preinstallation tasks for the precompilers and tools that are required for OpenVMS.
Network and System Management Products
This section describes tasks that need to be completed prior to installation if you have existing network and system management products.
Setup Tasks for Oracle Net Services
If you have an existing installation of Oracle Net Services server running on the same
TCP ports and IPC keys, then shut down all listeners before installing it. To determine if any listeners are running, enter the following command:
$ LSNRCTL STATUS [listener_name]
The listener_name
field is required if the listener has a name other than the default name
LISTENER
.
To shut down a running listener, enter the following command:
$ LSNRCTL STOP [listener_name]
