Invoking and Executing a Script from OEM

When including script names in OEM you must carefully include the fully-qualified path for the script: (i.e. /u01/app/oracle/scripts/myscript.sql). Placing custom scripts within OEM is a great way to improve reporting. Here is a quick overview of script execution from OEM:

  1. Create a "new event" from the OEM console
  2. Choose "enable unsolicited event" and then "test unsolicited event"
  3. Enter the script name with the full path.
You can also use the oemevent command to invoke a SQL script from OEM:

root> oemevent /u01/app/oracle/scripts/myscript.sql destination alert "Monitored destination message"
