The Database Control Configuration ( 11G )
See also at Oracle' s Metalink
How To Drop, Create And Recreate the Database Control (DB Control) Release 10g and 11g (Doc ID 278100.1)
This is how I configured the database control after I initially created my database without configuring it.
Important to mention is that the somewhat unlucky hostname of my laptop is "pc_van_guy" and that these underscores triggered a severe error while I tried to configure the Database Control.
A logfile located in %ORACLE_HOME%\cfgtoollogs\emca mentionned the below error
CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter ORACLE_HOSTNAME.
2-jun-2009 22:48:04 oracle.sysman.emcp.ParamsManager getParam
CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter ORACLE_HOSTNAME.
2-jun-2009 22:48:04 oracle.sysman.emcp.ParamsManager getParam
CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter EMAIL_ADDRESS.
2-jun-2009 22:48:04 oracle.sysman.emcp.ParamsManager getParam
CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter MAIL_SERVER_NAME.
2-jun-2009 22:48:04 oracle.sysman.emcp.ParamsManager getParam
CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter ORACLE_HOSTNAME.
2-jun-2009 22:48:04 oracle.sysman.emcp.EMConfig perform
SEVERE: Invalid Hostname PC_van_Guy. Hostname should not contain underscore _ in it.
I also noticed the message "CONFIG: No value was set for the parameter ORACLE_HOSTNAME."
What I did is
1. I added the below entry in the %WINDIR%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.
127.0.0.1 localhost ::1 localhost
127.0.0.1 PC_VAN_GUY
2. I assured my listener was also listening on 127.0.0.1 by editing the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\listener.ora
3. And I set the ORACLE_HOSTNAME environment as indicated below.
C:\Windows\system32>SET ORACLE_HOSTNAME=127.0.0.1
C:\Windows\system32>emca -config dbcontrol db
