Relocate Goldengate VIP and XAG Services Manager restart frequently (OGG-01022 )

While researching Oracle GoldenGate, Tenable found three vulnerabilities in GoldenGate Manager. GoldenGate Manager is the process that is in charge of monitoring, controlling, and reporting status on other GoldenGate components. The Manager listens on port 7809 where it accepts GoldenGate Software Command Interface (GGSCI) commands.


Oracle GG: 12.1.2.1.2 and later
Database : 11g /12c 
Xag      : 4.1.0


Scenario/Error :  Goldengate VIP and Xag services getting relocated frequently. whenever  Xag service getting  restart Manager also restarted  hence all Replication got stuck . 

Currently Oracle GoldenGate  cannot handle security scan, and the observed unknown message is due to that. Also Security scanning try to upload images with help of MGR port but oracle are now allow to upload this types of data.

It is Strongly recommended by Oracle to not do security scan on ogg ports

This could be caused by security scan on ogg ports.  Currently ogg cannot handle security scan, and the observed unknown message is due to that.



Solutions : 
1 . Stop the Security scanning on Goldengate manager port 
2 . Wait for Security scanning completion 
3 . Permanent solution is exclude the mgr port from security scanning
