Thanks everyone.
I managed to install it, the trick was to use Typical, and avoid Custom
installation. (Resist, Pat! Resist! Don't press that button! Your life
will be ruined! Pestilence on your family if you press that button! --
Self-destructing software, pits and traps for the unwary, interesting
concept.)
So far I heard that in one version Custom worked but Typical didn't, for me
with OEM 2.2. it was the reverse. It seems to be a gambling affair.
Also I was installing OEM 2.2. in the same oracle_home as 8.1.6., bad idea.
(not related to not being able to install, just two problems layered on top
of each other).
I re-installed it three times late last week.
Now I will test...

Hi,
Yes, w've installed oem2.2 on a nt (ibm) machine with 180 Mb ram. It
works fine, with the 3 major packs. (tuning, diag and change)
The management server runs fine and even the data gatherer works
very good, we collect the data from unix (aix) trough the nt dg for our
packs and no problem.
nt with service pack 6

Onderwerp: OEM 2.2. installation blues
Hi,
Has anyone successfully installed OEM 2.2. on their machine?
My test server has 256M more RAM coming, but in the meantime I
haven't given
up hope. Although hope is dwindling... I only have 380M of RAM.
I started the installation process, then went to talk to someone.
When I
returned there was a Blue Screen of Death waiting for me.
After powering off and powering on my machine, Peak Memory usage on
my
machine is at 680M of memory! Is this NT going crazy or does the
Oracle
Universal Installer really need that much memory to install OEM
2.2.? Could
there be a creeping memory leak in the Universal Installer? (make
that a
galloping memory leak)
I allocated 1G of virtual memory, but I know from experience on this
machine
at least that NT can't handle virtual memory very well, it keeps
blue
screening when I exceed available physical memory by too much.
TIA
