Oracle Grid- Creating User Accounts

Hello,

I am going to discuss more about Oracle Grid - creating administrator user, super administrator user, creating targets, generating reports, scheduling jobs, setting alerts,setting email notification and so on.
In this post i am going to create two administrator user accounts (warning_admin, critical_admin) and super administrator user account (super_admin) using Oracle Grid.
Administrator User Accounts: Adminsitrator are deatabase users defined in the management repository who can log into Enterprise Manager to perform management tasks.
Super Administrator User Account:The Super Administrator can choose to grant certain privileges to certain administrators to access and manage certain targets based on the requirement. Thus, the superadministrator can divide the work intelligently among the adminsitrators.

Creating Super Administrator User Super_Admin using Oracle Grid
Super_Admin
• Go to Setup -> click on Administrators
• Click Createlike -> provide the following information
• Name: Super_Admin
• Password:
• Confirm password:

Creating Adminsitrator User Accounts Warning_Admin and Critical_Admin

Warning_Admin
Login to Grid user Super Administrator user account Super_Admin

Note: This 2 users are created just to differentiate critical alerts and warning alerts and set email notifications to groups based on the priority. It is sometimes needed to avoid your boss getting all warning emails, so make sure that you have 2 email groups with your boss included in criticals alerts and not in warning alerts.
Warning_Admin: This account is created to set for all the alerts which come under warning messages. A warning email is sent to everyone in the team except your Boss.
