The following paragraphs should be ignored:
The Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c installation is recommended to be on Bundle Patch 1 ( BP1 ) if it is not already on that patch level. Note that applying the BP1 will not change the EM12c< version, since it is not a new release or even a patch set of Enterprise Manager. The method to verify that the bundle patch has been applied is to use the opatch utility in the OMS home. In the opatch output, you should see that the BP1 patch has been applied, which is patch 13242773 .
Please refer to the My Oracle Support ( MOS) reference document for applying the BP1 patch. The document ID is 1393173.1, and it is titled Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Workbook for Applying Bundle Patch 1 (February 2012) and 12.1.0.2 Plugins .

Data centers around the world are experiencing an unprecedented era of growth due to expanding data volumes. There is also a corresponding increase in the number of databases and applications. In such rapid-growth centers, it is inevitable that fighting fires daily becomes a common occurrence. There is often no controlled method of performance management, neither is rapidly changing configuration information collected.
With the lack of automation and control, Data Centers do not often realize their intended cost-effectiveness and regress into a chaotic and uncontrolled day-to-day type of existence. This was the case until Oracle Enterprise Manager started being used as an Enterprise-wide central management solution, changing the whole game in the process.
In this brand new book by Porus Homi Havewala, one of the leading experts in the Oracle space, you will be introduced to the all-encompassing world of Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c, Oracle's premier product for managing and monitoring the Enterprise space. Drawing from the author’s many years of experience in the real world, the book brings together the major capabilities of the latest Enterprise Manager software and demonstrates how to ease the growing pains of Data Centers.
The book takes you on a descriptive journey of what issues are normally experienced in the Data Center, and how Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 12c manages to address and resolve many of the issues.
The book introduces the reader to the typical chaos in Data Centers and discusses the way these common issues are normally resolved, by manual labor or manual scripting using extensive human resources. Then it will show you how Cloud Control 12c aids in Database Performance Management, Configuration Management, Security Compliance, Automated Provisioning, Automated Patching and Database Change Management.
You will learn how Cloud Control 12c allows Exadata Database Machine Monitoring and Management, Test Data Management for data subsetting of large databases, as well as Sensitive Data De-identification using Data Masking.
