Oracle OEM 13.5

Not going to spend an age on this, just to say 13.5 is now available - a lot of information on the web already :

Going to upgrade my "sandbox" OEM to 13.5 and will post on that instead.

Recently moved to 13.4 - mainly as the Adobe Flash end of support was at the end of 2020. 

The migration from 13.2 to 13.4 was pretty painless but did hit a problem when moving the agents.  

EM 13c: OMS Communication to all Agents Failing with "[handshake has no peer]" but Agents are able to Upload Successfully to the OMS (Doc ID 2381313.1

/u02/app/oracle/middleware2/oracle_common/jdk/jre/lib/security

Was

# jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=MD5, SSLv3, DSA, RSA keySize < 2048

jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, RC4, DES, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 1024, \

EC keySize < 224, 3DES_EDE_CBC, anon, NULL

As per the doc from the original 13.2 version - this works

# jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=MD5, SSLv3, DSA, RSA keySize < 2048

jdk.tls.disabledAlgorithms=SSLv3, MD5withRSA, DH keySize < 768


Not exactly sure what “revert back the changes made to disable the MD5withRSA algorithm” – I read it as per 13.2 ?


After a stop / start of OMS it was then ok.

Hopefully 13.5 should be easy enough - not entirely sure what advantages over 13.4 but we will see.
