Oracle Autonomous Health Framework (AHF) 24.11 Release Notes Summary

  • Controlled AHF Balance tuning recommendations: AHF Balance uses AI to recommend database CPU_COUNT adjustments that improve performance and hardware utilization. The new --limit-db-changes option caps how many databases are included in a recommendation.
  • Gradual, lower-risk implementation: Instead of proposing changes for every database in a large cluster or fleet at once, administrators can tune a limited number of databases per iteration. This makes change management more manageable and supports phased performance improvements.
  • Flexible analysis scope: The database-change limit can be applied when running AHF Balance analysis at fleet, cluster, or individual-database scope. Connection details must first be configured for the Impact analysis feature.
  • New best-practice check: Orachk adds validation of systemd-udevd process CPU usage, helping identify excessive CPU consumption by the device-event management service.
