  • Java upgrade: AHF 23.11 ships with Java 11.0.21.
  • New parameter-viewing command: tfactl param lets administrators view selected operating-system and database parameter values. It replaces tfactl run param, which Oracle plans to deprecate.

  • Oracle Linux 9 support: AHF now supports Oracle Linux 9 on both x86_64 (Intel/AMD) and Arm (aarch64) platforms.
  • Diagnostic-space analytics: Insights gains a Space Analysis section that presents disk utilization and diagnostic-directory usage visually and in tables, across nodes and directories.
  • ExaWatcher data in Insights: Exadata storage-cell performance data collected by ExaWatcher is now visible in the AHF Insights interface.
  • Patch information in the Timeline: Insights now marks when patches were applied, helping correlate changes with incidents. The release also adds a database-faceted Timeline view, rounds OS metrics to two decimal places, and alphabetically sorts node names.
