To reset the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) for your admin account in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), follow these steps.


1. Access Oracle Cloud Console:

  • Log in to the OCI Console with your admin credentials.

2. Navigate to Identity & Security:

  • From the main OCI dashboard, go to the “Identity & Security” section.
  • Under Identity, select “Users”.

3. Find Your Admin User:

  • Search for your admin user account in the Users list.

4. Reset MFA:

  • Once you’ve located the admin account, click on the username to open the user details.
  • On the user’s details page, scroll down to the “Multi-Factor Authentication” section.
  • There will be an option to “Reset MFA” or “Remove Device”.
  • Click “Reset MFA” to remove any previously configured MFA devices.

5. Reconfigure MFA:

  • After resetting, you will need to reconfigure MFA when you log in again. OCI will prompt you to set up a new MFA device.

6. Follow the Instructions for Re-Enrollment:

  • You will be asked to scan a new QR code using an authenticator app (like Google Authenticator or Authy) and provide a verification code to finalize the setup.

Once completed, MFA will be reset, and you can log in using your new MFA device.

How to Configure Logging for EM 12c Management Agent

The goal of this article is to provide instruction on how to enable logging for the Enterprise Manager 12c Management Agent.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The logging properties for the agent are stored in $EMSTATE/sysman/config/emd.properties file, same as in 11.1. But the properties that control logging follow the log4j configuration syntax instead of the syntax supported by the 11.1 agent. To active changes to the logging parameters, you can use either of the emctl commands: emctl reload agent emctl setproperty agent Overview Agent logging entries look similar to the standard log4j logging, with the only significant difference being the prefix 'Logger.' that you will see on each line. For example: # logging properties Logger.log4j.appender.Rolling=org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender Logger.lo
