As a part of the configuration, the SYSMAn user is created which owns the OMS repository. Specify the password for the SYSMAN user. Also specify the location of the Management, Configuration, and IVM Diagnostics tablespaces. I believe that the IVM Diagnostic tablespace is the new requirement for 11g Grid Control

Towards the end of the installation run the allroot.sh script as root, from inside the OMS home
The configuration assistants will contine to configure the OMS and Agent. The configurations ran for more than 2 hours own my machine so ultimately i had to allocate more memory to my Virtual Machine.
During the Repository Configuration Sysman user is created and variuos objects will be created to hold the repository data. Query the objects in the Sysman schema and you will see the number increasing.
Once all the configurations are done, Close the Installer.
