The diagram path now follows a documented standard procedure (lookup the closest Oracle Architecture Center reference → confirm components → author absolute_layout → spec validator → render → visually verify) and ships persistent guardrails so layout regressions can't recur. Persistent procedure changes (apply to all users, all sessions): - tools/diagram_spec_validator.py — geometry checks (CONTAINER_TOO_THIN, CONTAINER_PADDING_VIOLATION, LABEL_OVERFLOW_PARENT) run BEFORE either renderer (drawio + PPTX). Catches the subnet-collapse / label-overflow bugs that the post-render drawio validator missed. - tools/oci_diagram_gen.py + tools/oci_pptx_diagram_gen.py — call the spec validator before emitting any output. Adds mysql / mysql_heatwave type aliases. - tools/archcenter_pattern_lookup.py — scores against cached page descriptions (not just the 1-line summary), supports --queries for multi-fragment composition, and applies synonym expansion via kb/architecture-center/synonyms.yaml so "LB HA cross AD" matches "load balancer high availability availability domain". - kb/architecture-center/synonyms.yaml — canonical synonym table (load balancer, autonomous database, data guard, …) used by the lookup scorer. KB enrichment: - tools/archcenter_description_fetcher.py + 121 cached _description.md under kb/diagram/assets/archcenter-refs/<slug>/. Removes the runtime dependency on docs.oracle.com when authoring specs and feeds the pattern-lookup scorer. - 110+ cached .drawio / .svg / .png references for offline reuse, plus the OCI Toolkit v24.2 import (kb/diagram/assets/oci-toolkit-drawio). Documentation: - docs/skill/output-formats.md — new "Standard diagram-generation procedure (MANDATORY)" + geometry rules + the new validator entry. - SKILL.md option 2 — references the mandatory procedure. - README.md — describes the spec validator, archcenter_pattern_lookup and description fetcher, and updates the KB-health table. Tooling that backs the procedure (cumulative across recent sessions): tools/archcenter_case_runner.py, archcenter_batch_driver.py, archcenter_zip_downloader.py, drawio_visual_validator.py, drawio_fidelity_eval.py, harvest_drawio_icon.py, import_oci_library.py, oci_pptx_diagram_gen.py, oci_pptx_render.py, refresh_pptx_icon_index.py.

Understand Oracle Cloud Observability and Management Platform Stack Monitoring Service for Oracle E-Business Suite
The Stack Monitoring services in Oracle Cloud Observability and Management Platform for Oracle E-Business Suite deliver essential insights into application health, including real-time performance tracking and out-of-box metrics. These services offer integrated visibility across your E-Business Suite stack, enabling efficient troubleshooting, performance optimization, and proactive issue resolution to ensure seamless and reliable operation of your enterprise applications.
Configure Your Environment
Before you can use the Stack Monitoring service, you must set up your Oracle Cloud Infrastructure environment to allow communication between the different components and services. This section explains the steps to set up Oracle Cloud Infrastructure for Stack Monitoring.
Note: The full procedures for completing the steps in this topic are beyond the scope of this playbook. Please refer "Getting Started" in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation, which you can access from "Explore More", elsewhere in this playbook.
To properly configure your OCI envieronment, you need to complete these three steps:
- Create or Designate a Compartment to Use
You can create a new compartment or use an existing compartment to install and configure the Stack Monitoring service. Stack Monitoring supports the following configurations to create a single-pane of glass for monitoring all resources:
-
All resources are deployed within the monitoring compartment.
-
Resources deployed in a compartment different than the monitoring compartment.
-
Install Management Agents
Next, you need to install the Management Agent, which is a prerequisite for using the Stack Monitoring service. You can learn more about the Management Agent in the following topic, "Learn About the Management Agent in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure ".
- Enable the Stack Monitoring Service
Finally, you need to enable the Stack Monitoring service, from the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console. Navigate to Stack Monitoring located under Observability and Management, Stack Monitoring. Select the compartment you want to monitor, and click Enable Stack Monitoring .
Learn About the Management Agent in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
The Management Agent in OCI is a lightweight software component that facilitates monitoring and management of on-premises resources and hybrid cloud environments. It securely connects these resources to OCI services such as Monitoring, Logging, and Operations Insights, enabling centralized visibility and control. As mentioned in the previous topic you need to set up this component to deploy stack monitoring.
The key Management Agent features are:
-
Monitoring: Provides detailed metrics and logs from on-premises resources to OCI Monitoring.
-
Logging: Sends log data from on-premises environments to OCI Logging for analysis and troubleshooting.
-
Operations Insights: Enables operational insights and automation for hybrid cloud environments.
-
Security: Ensures secure communication with OCI using encryption and authentication mechanisms.
See "Management Agent" in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Documentation, which you can access from"Explore More".
Considerations for Monitoring a Stack
To ensure a successful experience when enabling observability and management stack monitoring for Oracle E-Business Suite
-
You do not need Oracle Application Management Pack (AMP) licenses for Stack Monitoring. Instead, the Stack Monitoring service is priced under APM Stack Monitoring in Oracle Cloud Observability and Management Platform .
-
When running E-Business Suite on OCI Compute , ensure the Management Agent is enabled within the Oracle Cloud Agent.
-
If you are running an E-Business Suite application on-premises, you'll need to manually install the Management Agent. You can download the Management Agent installation key and RPMs from the OCI Console.
-
Once the agent is installed, both on-premises or on an OCI Compute instance, Stack Monitoring automatically creates a job to promote the compute to full monitoring. To do so:
-
Click the promote link in the Promotion UI.
-
Ennsure the hostname to be discovered is using the FQDN, and within minutes Stack Monitoring will collect metrics and monitoring begins.
-
With the host now being monitored, next discover the Oracle Database where the E-Business Suite schema resides.
-
Once you've discoverd Oracle Database , ensure all prerequisites are met. For a full set of prerequisites see "Discovering Oracle E-Business Suite", in Oracle Application Management Pack for Oracle E-Business Suite Guide , which you can access from "Explore More", elsewhere in this playbook.
-
You can successfully discover E-Business Suite and Oracle Database by using DNS names or IP addresses.
-
Once E-Business Suite resources has been discovered in Stack Monitoring, the out-of-box EBS metrics are exposed to OCI Monitoring service.
-
To create alarms for the metrics, navigate to the OCI console and from the menu, select Observability , then Monitoring , then Alarm Definitions , then Create Alarm .
Note: Stack Monitoring provides a list of recommended alarm rules. For details, see "Setting Up Alarms", in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation, which you can access from "Explore More".
