Have you received this error on OMS 12.1.0.3? "Metric evaluation error start – Get dynamic property error," After performing some research on MOS and a confirmation SR, it seems related to Bug 17575631 CLUSTER DB HOME PAGE ERRORS- REGIONS FETCH REAL TIME DATA WILL NOT BE DISPLAYED on Database Plugin. It’s solved in OMS 12.1.0.4 and also in 12.1.0.5.1 EM Database Plugin Bundle patch. However, MOS doesn't have any quick fixes to avoid alarms, so I'll show you how to work around it. Before we begin, I recommend you read those MOS documents: To work around it temporarily, you can: – Stop and start the agent. – List targets on the host. – Reload dynamic properties for problematic target from the above list. Check out the example below: Example of an error from OEM:
 Host=dbserver.domain.com
  Target type=Cluster Database
  Target name=proddb
  Categories=Availability
  Message=Metric evaluation error start - Get dynamic property error,Dynamic Category property error,Computation of a critical dynamic property failed. Retries Completed.
