Oracle 11g Enterprise Manager is not able to connect to the database instance.

Today I try to open EM and monitor DB. Unfortunately it was failed and show me "Enterprise Manager is not able to connect to the database instance. The state of the components are listed below."

Authentication passed but it does not work.

If problem on authentication check sysman user`s account status.

SQL> select account_status from dba_users where username='SYSMAN';

Also it will helpful checking emctl`s log which locates under:

/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/localhost.localdomain_ulfetdb/sysman/log


After checking logs I decided to recreate dbcontrol using below command. (Unfortunately I could not provide content of log)

It will ask some parameters (some of them optional, just enter and skip)
Also to be patient, it may last several minutes...

[oracle@localhost ~]$ emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate

Let`s check

That`s all.

Alternatively you can directly drop repository and then create it again using below commands.

emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop
emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
