D.3 chactl status

Use the chactl status command to check monitoring status of the running targets.

If you do not specify any parameters, then the chactl status command returns the status of all running targets.

The monitoring status of an Oracle Cluster Health Advisor target can be either Monitoring  or  Not Monitoring. The chactl status command shows four types of results and depends on whether you specify a target and -verbose option.

The -verbose option of the command also displays the monitoring status of targets contained within the specified target and the names of executing models of each printed target. The chactl status command displays targets with positive monitoring status only. The chactl status command displays negative monitoring status only when the corresponding target is explicitly specified on the command-line.

Syntax

chactl status {cluster|database [-db db_unique_name]} [-verbose][-help]

Examples

• To display the list of cluster nodes and databases being monitored:

  #chactl status
  Monitoring nodes rac1Node1, rac1Node2
  Monitoring databases SalesDB, HRdb

  Note:

  A database is displayed with Monitoring status, if Oracle Cluster Health Advisor is monitoring one or more of the instances of the database, even if some of the instances of the database are not running.

• To display the status of Oracle Cluster Health Advisor:

  $ chactl status
  Cluster Health Advisor service is offline.

  No target or the -verbose option is specified on the command-line. Oracle Cluster Health Advisor is not running on any node of the cluster.

• To display various Oracle Cluster Health Advisor monitoring states for cluster nodes and databases:

  $ chactl status database -db SalesDB
  Monitoring database SalesDB

  $ chactl status database -db bogusDB
  Not Monitoring database bogusDB

  $ chactl status cluster
  Monitoring nodes rac1,rac2
  Not Monitoring node rac3

  or

  $ chactl status cluster
  Cluster Health Advisor is offline

• To display the detailed Oracle Cluster Health Advisor monitoring status for the entire cluster:

  $ chactl status –verbose
  Monitoring node(s) racNd1, racNd2, racNd3, racNd4 using model MidSparc
  
  Monitoring database HRdb2, Instances HRdb2I1, HRdb2I2 in server pool SilverPool using model M6
  Monitoring database HRdb, Instances HRdbI4, HRdbI6 in server pool SilverPool using model M23
  Monitoring database testHR, Instances inst3 on node racN7 using model TestM13
  Monitoring database testHR, Instances inst4 on node racN8 using model TestM14

  When the target is not specified and the –verbose option is specified, the chactl status command displays the status of the database instances and names of the models.
