5.1.1 Pre-Feature Activation Health Check

Perform Health Check (Pre Feature Activation)

This procedure is used to determine the health and status of the network and servers. This must be executed at the start of every maintenance window.

Note:

The Health Check procedure below is the same as the Health Check procedure described in Perform Health Check when preparing for feature activation, but it is repeated here to emphasize that it is being re-executed if Perform Health Check was performed outside the maintenance window.

Log in to the SOAM VIP GUI, establish a GUI session on the SOAM server by using the VIP address of the SOAM server.

1. Open the web browser and enter the URL, http://<Primary_SOAM_VIP_IP_Address>
2. Log in as the guiadmin user.

7. Verify if the Server Status is Normal (Norm) for: Alarm (Alm), Database (DB), Replication Status, and Processes (Proc).

   Figure 5-5 Server Status

   
   

   

   
   

   Do not proceed to feature activation if any of the above states are not Norm. If any of these are not Norm, corrective action should be taken to restore the non-Norm status to Norm before proceeding with the feature activation.

   If the Alarm (Alm) status is not Norm but only Minor alarms are present, it is acceptable to proceed with the feature activation. If there are Major or Critical alarms present, these alarms should be analyzed before proceeding with the feature activation. The activation can be able to proceed in the presence of certain Major or Critical alarms. Contact My Oracle Support for assistance as necessary.

8. Verify the Server Configuration, expand Configuration folder and click Server Groups
