Avoid failure while stopping

Blackout in OEM12c.
I have prepared this document, to educate users how they can
avoid the failure that Occur while stopping Blackout. Most of the
time I have seen that Blackout created during Weekly
Maintenance never ends successfully.
This document describes the reason for the failure while ending
Blackout and the steps to be followed to end the Blackout.

Listed Blackout with Status Partial Blackout Stop Failed

Step 1: Check the Select Box for the Failed Blackout and Click
the View tab as shown below in the screenshot.

Step 2: Under the Selected Targets heading, look for the

targets with the ERROR Message: Unable to stop the
blackout due to agent Un-availability. This case is
completely described in the below screenshot.

Step 3: Login to the problematic Server using putty manager {if

it is Linux Server} or using RDP {incase of Windows Server}.
One of the Problematic Server is mentioned below in the
screenshot.

Step 4: Switch to the application specific user using SUDO

command, like psoft for any PeopleSoft Server or oracle for
database servers. Navigate to the Agents Location and check the
status using emctl status agent command.

Step 5: For sure the status in the last step will be Agent is not
running. So Start the agent by issuing emctl start agent
command. Confirm agent is started successfully without any
errors.
Note: Do the same for all the Hosts listed under the Selected
Targets as shown in Step 2.

Step 6: Select the Partial Failed blackout and Click on the

Stop button, on the confirmation page click on Yes button to
submit the Blackout Ending Request.

Step 7: The page will be refreshed and the status of the

corrupted Blackout will soon change to Ended Successfully from
Stop Pending. Once the blackout is ended, you will only see
active blackout in the list.
