How to define Environment variable ORACLE_SID to display DB Console ?

user8860348Jul 9 2011 — edited Jul 9 2011
Folks,

Hello. I have just installed Oracle Database 11gR1. In order to display Database Control Console page, I run the following command at Oracle_Home/bin directory:

./emctl start dbconsole

But the error message comes up:"Environment variable ORACLE_SID not defined. Please define it."

I have specified "OracleDB" as SID during the Database installation, but still get this error.

Can any folks tell me: How to define Environment variable ORACLE_SID in order to display DB Control Console ?
