Enterprise Manager offers the following management packs for Oracle Middleware Enterprise Management:
The following sections in this chapter describe the licensed features and links for these packs.
Note:
Some information displayed in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c for the following licensable entities is missing, inaccurate, and/or incomplete:WebLogic Server Management Pack Enterprise Edition
SOA Management Pack Enterprise Edition
Management Pack for WebCenter
Management Pack for Oracle Coherence
Accurate and complete information on these licensable products is expected to be available in a future release of Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c. Meanwhile, refer to this document for accurate and complete information.
The WebLogic Server Management Pack Enterprise Edition offers a solution for managing Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle WebLogic Server, and Oracle Application Server. This pack provides capabilities for application performance management, business transaction management, service level management, coherence management as well as lifecycle management for Oracle Application Server, Oracle Fusion Middleware, and/or Oracle WebLogic Server software. This pack provides full visibility across both software and hardware components for an Exalogic Elastic Cloud engineered system.
Note:
All Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Fusion Middleware Control and Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Application Server Control functionality is included with each edition of Oracle Fusion Middleware. The links and areas that require the WebLogic Server Management Pack Enterprise Edition are outside of Fusion Middleware Control and Application Server Control.The features available with this pack are as follows:
Application performance management features are available in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c.
Service level management features are available in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c.
Coherence management features are available in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c.
Business Transaction Management features are available in Oracle Enterprise Manager Business Transaction Management 12c.
Lifecycle management features (spanning configuration management, compliance management, provisioning and patching) are available in Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c.
The following functional areas provide feature overviews for each of the multiple products associated with WebLogic Server Management Pack Enterprise Edition:
The WebLogic Server Management Pack Enterprise Edition delivers comprehensive management and modeling capabilities for pure Java EE and web service environments, as well as business transaction monitoring for applications running in Oracle WebLogic Server. By combining contextual drill-down modeling capabilities with extensive metrics that can span containers horizontally as well as the entire vertical stack for Java EE, this pack significantly reduces the cost and complexity of managing Java EE-based environments in development, testing, staging, and production environments.
Unless otherwise stated, the following features apply to both Oracle WebLogic Server and Oracle Application Server environments.

The Management Pack for Oracle Coherence provides comprehensive monitoring, cluster management, cache management and configuration management capabilities for Coherence. This pack provides complete cluster visibility by supplying detailed metrics of various cluster artifacts and their interdependencies. The performance views can be completely customized and saved. The topology view gives graphical representation of dependencies of the components and performance hotspots. Enterprises can monitor more than one Coherence cluster from a single console. Organizations can keep track of node configuration over period of time and also change runtime configuration parameters for caches and nodes.
Enterprise Manager provides out-of-box support for metric alerts, enabling users to proactively monitor the cluster health. Various performance charts show real-time and historical performance trends. The cache data management features gives ability to perform several operations on any cache in the Coherence cluster (for example, view, import, export, purge, add index, remove index, etc.). Enterprise Manager automates the mundane tasks of setting up Coherence software and creating a cluster on distributed machines. Enterprise Manager also enables users to start and stop new nodes in an already monitored Coherence cluster. Similarly, users can also start and stop the entire cluster. User can monitor the node log files by setting patterns. Enterprise Manager generates alert when the patterns are found matching.
