Trying to configure Enterprise Manager 11G Database Control for backups for the first time. Whenever I navigate to
Availability >> Backup Settings >> Policy tab
and try to make a change, for example, enable the checkbox for Automatically backup the control file and server parameter file (SPFILE) with every backup and database structural change
, then click OK
button, the GUI says the settings were saved successfully, but when I revisit the page, it's always showing the default settings. (I make sure to set the correct Host Credentials at the bottom of the tab each time)
If I do it enough times, occasionally, the changes will stick the next time, but upon a 2nd (and subsequent) visits (without changing anything, just viewing the page), the settings go back to default again.
Anyone see this behavior before? The Home
page doesn't show any problems.
