Cluster Health Monitor Improved Diagnosability
Cluster Health Monitor introduces a new diagnostic ability to listen for critical component events that could indicate pending or actual failure and report these with recommended corrective actions. In some cases, these actions may be executed autonomously. Such events and actions could then be captured and admins notified through components such as Trace File Analyzer.
Improving the robustness and reliability of the Oracle Database hosting infrastructure is a critical business requirement for enterprises. This improved ability to detect and correct at first failure and self-heal autonomously delivers value by improving business continuity.
Diagnosability 23ai Improvements
These are existing features but changes and enhancements to functionality and default values.
Decreases time to identify and address critical events in the database. Changes tracing limits to be more reasonable than being unlimited and facilitates content identification so that customers are aware what trace data is provided to Oracle for further diagnosis.
Enhanced Cluster Health Advisor Support for Oracle Pluggable Databases
Cluster Health Advisor's (CHA) diagnostics capability is extended to support 4K pluggable databases (PDBs) from 256. This is critical for Oracle Autonomous Database deployments. CHA's problem detection and root cause analysis improves accuracy by considering database events such as reconfiguration. This improves detection, analysis, and targeted preventative actions for problems, such as instance evictions.
By adding this support to Cluster Health Advisor, performance and availability are kept in line with the deployment size. The business continuity of critical applications is preserved with improved prognostics and targeted preventive actions.
