17.2 Managing Disk Usage Snapshots

Use tfactl commands to manage Oracle Trace File Analyzer disk usage snapshots.

Oracle Trace File Analyzer automatically monitors disk usage, records snapshots, and stores the snapshots under tfa_install_dir/tfa/repository/suptools/node/managelogs/usage_snapshot/

By default, the time interval between snapshots is 60 minutes.

To manage disk usage snapshots:

  1. To change the default time interval for snapshots:
    $ tfactl set diskUsageMonInterval=minutes

    where minutes is the number of minutes between snapshots.

  2. To turn the disk usage monitor on or off:
    $ tfactl set diskUsageMon=ON|OFF
