How to install AHF:

You should install it as root.

To install as root:

  2. Run the TFA & ORAchk/EXAchk install command ./ahf_setup [-ahf_loc install_dir] [-data_dir data_dir]

 

ORAchk/EXAchk compliance check results – To proactively warn you of risks

Trace File Analyzer (TFA) diagnostic collections – Taken automatically on detection of a fault

Once installation is complete TFA will be automatically started.

ORAchk/EXAchk can be started to run automatic compliance checks with the command: orachk -autostart or exachk -autostart

Once autostart has been run ORAchk/EXAchk will perform compliance checks for:

  • The most severe problems at 2am, once a day
  • All known problems once a week at 3am on a Sunday
  • Send an email to the notification addresses, provided during install of any check failures and a diff since the last run

Trace File Analyzer (TFA) will monitor for significant issues.

If any issues are detected TFA will automatically:

  1. Take a diagnostic collection of everything needed to diagnose & resolve (cluster-wide where necessary)
  2. Collocate distributed collections
  3. Analyze collections for known problemsSend an email to the notification addresses, provided during install, containing details of the issues detected, recommended solutions were known, and the location of diagnostic collection(s).
