Using this connectivity, the wizard transfers the software binaries to the destination host over SSH protocol, and installs and configures the Management Agent.īefore starting with the SSHD setup, ensure you are not using OpenSSH and MKSNT when using the Add Host Targets Wizard. The SSH Daemon enables the Add Host Targets Wizard to establish SSH connectivity between the OMS host and the destination host where you want to install the management agent. Once you install Cygwin, you can configure the SSH Daemon on it. Technically, it is a DLL ( cygwin1.dll) that acts as a Linux API layer providing substantial Linux API functionality. To do so, follow the steps listed in Installing Cygwin.Ĭygwin is essentially a utility that offers a Linux-like environment on a Microsoft Windows operating system. When you use the Add Host Targets Wizard to install Oracle Management Agent (Management Agent) on a destination host that is running on Microsoft Windows, as a prerequisite, you are expected to have Cygwin installed and the SSH Daemon started on that destination host. It offers GUI-rich, interactive screens to enable you to install Management Agents on unmanaged hosts and convert them to managed hosts so that they can be monitored and managed in Enterprise Manager Cloud Control. The Add Host Targets Wizard is an application built into the Enterprise Manager Cloud Control console.
