How to Start EM Express for PDB

EM Express for PDB

I assumed that you have enabled Enterprise Manager Express (EM Express) before reading this post.

During database creation, DBCA enables Enterprise Manager Express (EM Express) for being created CDB, not for PDB globally by default. We can either:

1. Share this global port to all PDB, or
2. Enable a dedicated port for a specific PDB

Solutions

1. Enable Global Port

To share the port (i.e. 5500) for all PDB globally, we can do it like this.

Then we go for EM Express.

Carefully enter the PDB name in the field of "Container Name".

EM Express Global Port for all PDBs

2. Enable a Separate Port

A. Open the PDB

B. Set Current Container

C. Check Current Port of EM Express

Obviously, there's none, we have to set one for the PDB.

D. Set EM Express Port

Now go to the following URL for signing on EM express of the PDB. In this case, I go for:

The new interface of EM express 19c may not have as many features as used to be, but you can revert it back to flash-based EM express.
