Oracle Autonomous Health Framework (AHF) 25.8 Release Notes Summary

  • Automated excluded compliance checks: Excluded check IDs can now be managed centrally with ahf configuration commands rather than manually maintaining excluded_check_ids.txt on each node. Changes are automatically propagated across the cluster.
  • Resilient multi-node diagnostic collection: If a remote node’s AHF repository is closed or full, the collection skips that node instead of failing completely. Diagnostics continue for the remaining available nodes.
  • Expanded Oracle Database Appliance diagnostics: ODA collections now include RMAN logs, giving support teams better evidence when investigating backup and recovery issues.
  • Pluggable database diagnostic support: TFA’s DBTEXTINSTALL SRDC can collect diagnostics from PDBs, improving troubleshooting coverage for multitenant database environments.
  • Fleet Insights configuration check for Platinum users: Platinum-role users can verify whether Fleet Insights is configured using ahf configuration check --type fleet-insights, even when another user completed the setup.
  • Health Check Collections Manager delivered separately: The optional Oracle Health Check Collections Manager APEX application is no longer bundled in the AHF installer. It is now downloaded separately, reducing installer size and footprint.
  • New best-practice check: Orachk adds a check to verify the DB_BLOCK_CHECKING parameter on standby databases.
