With the dead of Adobe Flash Player, I decided it was a good time to get a new OEM system so I can test OEM without flash and test couple of things on it.

With this guide just wanted to make sure I have all the details in case I need to make a new installation in the near future.

I just followed these 2 fantastic Oracle-Base articles guides:
Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 13c Release 4 (13.4) Silent Installation on Oracle Linux 7
Oracle Database 19c Installation On Oracle Linux 7 (OL7)

I had an issue in the middle of the configuration Phase (my fault, I was doing something else in the KVM host and ended up restarting the OEM VM 🙁 ) so I added the steps I followed if a clean up is needed after a problem during Installation/Configuration phases

The OEM VM is running in KVM with 15G RAM and 12 CPUs. The end result, without any plugins/templates or targets added, was consuming around 70G of space, so make sure you have plenty of space in your system if you want to try it out.

To be honest, if you just want to "try it out" and don’t care too much about the steps needed to create it, I recommend to use the VirtualBox Template Oracle offers i edelivery (didn’t try this specific version, but it was great for 13.2)
Oracle VM VirtualBox for Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 13c Release 4 (13.4.0.0.0)

Repository Database Installation

During this part, we will install the Database repository and create the oracle user environment as well as create nice start/stop all components scripts.
Like everything else, I was just using Oracle-Base articles

OEM Installation Phase

Now that we have the DB repository ready, we can start the OEM Installation.
This part, took around 20-30 minutes aprox. to complete

Obviously, check the variables if you want to replicate this yourself, and make sure all of them fits your configuration

OEM Configuration Phase

This process failed to me since I restarted the DB in the middle of the process (was doing something else in the system and made one of those mistakes…)

Be aware this phase can take very long. In my case, took around 3 hours, but I bet it has something to do with my VM configuration, since I didn’t see the KVM Host doing much during that time, so I’m sure in a better system should take a lot less than that.
In any case, make sure you use nohup or screen so you don’t risk interrupting the process

This information is also available at: 

    /u01/app/oracle/middleware/install/setupinfo.txt

See the following for information pertaining to your Enterprise Manager installation:

Use the following URL to access:

    1. Enterprise Manager Cloud Control URL: https://oem13:7803/em
    2. Admin Server URL: https://oem13:7102/console
    3. BI Publisher URL: https://oem13:9803/xmlpserver/servlet/home

The following details need to be provided while installing an additional OMS:

    1. Admin Server Host Name: oem13
    2. Admin Server Port: 7102

You can find the details on ports used by this deployment at : /u01/app/oracle/middleware/install/portlist.ini

 NOTE:
 An encryption key has been generated to encrypt sensitive data in the Management Repository. If this key is lost, all encrypted data in the Repository becomes unusable. 

 A backup of the OMS configuration is available in /u01/app/oracle/gc_inst/em/EMGC_OMS1/sysman/backup on host oem13. See Cloud Control Administrators Guide for details on how to back up and recover an OMS.

 NOTE: This backup is valid only for the initial OMS configuration. For example, it will not reflect plug-ins installed later, topology changes like the addition of a load balancer, or changes to other properties made using emctl or emcli. Backups should be created on a regular basis to ensure they capture the current OMS configuration. Use the following command to backup the OMS configuration:
/u01/app/oracle/middleware/bin/emctl exportconfig oms -dir <backup dir>

Tim also provided some scripts to Stop/Start all components that you can see in the DB repository installation part
I also needed to redirected the 7803 port of my KVM host (server) to the same port in the OEM VM so I could access to it from my local network
