Preface

Purpose of this Manual

Oracle Enterprise Manager is a system management tool which provides an integrated solution for managing your heterogeneous environment. The product combines a graphical console, agents, common services, and tools to provide an integrated, comprehensive systems management platform for managing Oracle products.

This manual provides probable causes and recommended actions for error messages generated by Oracle^® Enterprise Manager and its components, including the separately licensable Management Packs.

Audience

The Oracle Enterprise Manager Messages Manual is written for those who use Oracle Enterprise Manager to perform system administration tasks and who are familiar with the tasks they wish to perform. If you are not familiar with database administration tasks, refer to the Oracle Server documentation set.

If you have not read the Oracle9i Database Administrator's Guide, it is recommend that you do so since there are chapters which describe the basic responsibilities of a database administrator.

This manual also assumes that you are familiar with your operating system. If necessary, refer to your operating system documentation.

Note:

For an overview of Oracle Enterprise Manager, see the Oracle Enterprise Manager Concepts Guide and the Oracle Enterprise Manager Quick Tour.

How This Manual Is Organized

All error messages documented in this manual contain prefixes consisting of three or more letters and a number, for example:

VNI-2002: File operation error

Error messages in this manual are listed alphabetically by message prefix and numerically by message number within each chapter. Each chapter covers one or more prefix. Messages can be found by searching for them alphabetically in the manual, or by looking in the Index.

Using This Manual

This manual and other Oracle Enterprise Manager documentation are designed to be used closely with the Oracle Server documentation set. While the Oracle Enterprise Manager documentation set explains how to perform database administration tasks using Oracle Enterprise Manager, the Oracle Server documentation set describes the reasons for and the implications of performing these tasks. It is recommended that you refer to the Oracle Server documentation set while using Oracle Enterprise Manager.
