You can access the documentation for the System Monitoring Plug-ins from the Oracle Technology Network (OTN). Alternatively, if you have a DVD, launch the index.htm file from a browser. You can find data sheets, the certification matrix, and other documentation in the OTN under Enterprise Manager and in Metalink.
You can download the System Monitoring plug-in archives from OTN by clicking Downloads, then Enterprise Manager. If you have a DVD, the plugin_archives directory contains the necessary plug-in archives to install each of the plug-ins.
To install a plug-in, do the following:
Copy or Save the desired plug-in archive to your desktop.
Launch the Enterprise Manager Grid Control console using a browser on your desktop.
Follow the instructions outlined in the System Monitoring Plug-in Installation Guide for this particular plug-in.
The following sections describe known issues that exist for this release.
The following generic Enterprise Manager Grid Control bugs and limitations impact all System Monitoring plug-ins.
Oracle Bug# 4736085 — An inconsistent error state appears if you undeploy System Monitoring plug-ins from multiple Agents, in which some Agents do not have the correct preferred credentials set.
Cause — If you first attempt to undeploy plug-ins from multiple Agents, but some Agents do not have the preferred credentials set, an expected error message appears. However, if you then attempt to undeploy from Agents that have the correct credentials set, caching problems continue to show the same error message.
Workaround — If you encounter this problem, log out and log back in. Navigate to the Undeploy Management Plug-ins page, and select only the Agents that have preferred credentials set.
Context-sensitive Help — None of the System Monitoring plug-ins have context-sensitive online help. This feature will be supported in the future.
The following bugs require resolution from Juniper for Juniper NetScreen Firewalls.
Oracle Bug# 4735609, Juniper's JTAC Case#: 2006-0131-0455 — The WebUI port number is not correctly reported by SNMP. This bug causes an incorrect value for Web UI HTTP Port. The value is always displayed as '0' (zero) for the following pages:

Web UI Configuration table of the Juniper Netscreen Firewall Protocol Configuration Report. Access this page by clicking Reports on the Juniper Netscreen Firewall home page, then selecting Juniper Netscreen Firewall Protocol Configuration from the View Report drop-down list.
Oracle Bug# 4735520, Juniper's JTAC Case#: 2006-0131-0461 — The DHCP Service is not reported correctly on sub-interfaces by SNMP. Consequently, the entry of DHCP Service for sub-interfaces may not be displayed for the following pages:

Security Zone-based Attack Configuration ("Block Component" column) of the Juniper Netscreen Firewall Attack Configuration Report.

Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible, with good usability, to the disabled community. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers.
