Oracle Appliance Manager provides access to a number of sophisticated monitoring and reporting tools, some of them derived from standalone tools that require their own syntax and command sets.
The following list briefly describes the ORAchk command, and the disk diagnostic tool:
ORAchk
The ORAchk Configuration Audit Tool audits important configuration settings for Oracle RAC two-node deployments in the following categories:
REVIEWERS: CRS as a term went out some time ago. Also Oracle Grid infrastructure encompasses both OCR, voting disks (that’s CRS), as well as ASM. So I am going to remove the CRS bullet.Operating system kernel parameters and packages
RDBMS
Database parameters, and other database configuration settings
Oracle Grid Infrastructure, which includes Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Automatic Storage Management
ORAchk is aware of the entire system. It checks the configuration to indicate if best practices are being followed. For example, ORAchk reviews the system and identifies best practice issues that are specific to Oracle Database Appliance when ORAchk is run by Oracle Appliance Manager. To explore ORAchk on Oracle Database Appliance, use the following command:
oakcli orachk -h
Also review My Oracle Support note 1268927.2, which is available from My Oracle Support.
Disk Diagnostic Tool
Use the Disk Diagnostic Tool to help identify the cause of disk problems. The tool produces a list of 14 disk checks for each node. To run the tool, enter the following command:
# oakcli stordiag resource_type
