Monitor AHF and Exachk

The Engineered Systems tab presents an overview that can be used to determine whether AHF is configured on Engineered System targets according to Oracle-recommended standards. The tab contains the following ring charts:

• Total Engineered Systems: Shows a count of total monitored Engineered System targets, broken down by whether the applicable management pack is enabled or disabled

  All the other charts and monitoring data on the page omit Database Machine, Exadata Infrastructure, and Recovery Appliance targets for which the applicable management pack is disabled, and no functionality on the page will be available for such targets.

• AHF Upgrade Status: Shows the current upgrade status across the fleet, based on the latest AHF version available in Self Update. The possible status values are as follows:
  • Must Upgrade: Hosts with AHF installations older than 180 days
  • Up-to-date: Hosts that have the latest AHF version. This is the ideal scenario for all systems.
  • Upgrade Needed: Hosts where the AHF version is lower than the version present in Self Update
  • Others: Hosts where AHF is not installed or no AHF metrics have been collected on the target
• AHF Service Status: Shows the enablement status for the TFA and Exachk services. Use the menu control to specify which service to analyze. It is recommended that all systems have both the TFA and Exachk services enabled.
• AHF Configurations: Shows how many systems have auto-upgrade and autorun configurations enabled or disabled. Use the menu control to specify which configuration to analyze. Enabling the auto-upgrade and autorun streamlines the Engineered System maintenance.

You can click the ring chart sections to filter the table based on the data in the chart.

Details regarding the health and configuration of AHF services running on host targets in the Engineered System hierarchy are aggregated in the table above. The table can be filtered either by clicking sections on the ring charts or through the filter control above the table. The following filter options are available for the table:

• Target: Engineered System target name. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Target Type: Engineered System target type. Possible values are Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Exadata Infrastructure, and Recovery Appliance.
• AHF Version: AHF version installed on hosts
• Auto Upgrade: Auto-upgrade state on the hosts. Possible values are Enabled and Not Enabled.
• Autorun: Autorun state on the hosts. Possible values are Enabled and Not Enabled.
• Staging Location: AHF installer staging directory on the hosts. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Exachk Service Status: Exachk service state on the hosts. Possible values are Enabled and Not Enabled.
• TFA Service Status: TFA service state on the hosts. Possible values are Enabled and Not Enabled.
• AHF Upgrade Status: AHF upgrade status on the hosts. Possible values are Must Upgrade, Up-to-date, Upgrade Needed, and Others.

Monitor AHF Jobs

Use the AHF Management Jobs tab to view a summary of all the Oracle Enterprise Manager AHF management jobs run across all Engineered System hosts. You can change the job time range to the last 24 hours, 7 days (default), or 30 days.

The following ring charts are available in the AHF Management Jobs tab:

• Total Engineered Systems: Same as the Engineered Systems tab
• Job Status: Shows the status breakdown of all AHF management jobs that have been run against the Engineered System fleet. The possible status values are:
  • Successful
  • Failed
  • Completed with Errors
  • Running
  • Stopped
• Job Type: Shows a breakdown of the type of AHF management jobs that have been run. The possible job types are:
  • Upgrade AHF
  • Execute AHF Commands
  • Upgrade Configuration
  • Schedule Exachk Autorun
  • Enable AHF Metrics
  • Stage AHF Software for Auto Upgrade

The table below the ring charts shows details about the AHF management jobs that have been run. The table can be filtered either by clicking a section of the ring charts or by using the filter above the table. The following filter options are available for the table:

• Job ID: Job ID of the Oracle Enterprise Manager job. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Target: Engineered System target name. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Target Type: Engineered System target type. Possible values are Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Exadata Infrastructure, and Recovery Appliance.
• Host: Host target where the job was implemented. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Job Status: Status of the job execution. Possible values are Successful, Failed, Completed with Errors, Running, and Stopped.
• Job Type: Type of job. Possible values are Upgrade AHF, Execute AHF Commands, Upgrade Configuration, Schedule Exachk Autorun, Enable AHF Metrics, and Stage AHF Software for Auto Upgrade.

Monitor Exachk Runs

The Exachk Run History tab contains a history of all autoruns configured across the Engineered System fleet. You can change the run history time range to the last 24 hours, 7 days (default), or 30 days.

The following ring charts are available in this tab:

• Total Engineered Systems: Same as Engineered Systems tab
• Default Exachk Autoruns: Details about the default Oracle-defined Exachk autoruns and their latest run status. Use the menu to filter the results by autorun profile name.
  • Configuration: Number of autoruns aggregated at the cluster level within the respective Engineered System. Possible values are as follows:
    • Configured: The selected autorun is configured for all the clusters within the Engineered System.
    • Partially Configured: The selected autorun is not configured for one or more clusters within the Engineered System.
  • Autorun Status: Status of Exachk executions in the last 24 hours for the selected default Oracle-defined autorun
• Exachk Run History: Status of Exachk runs for on-demand runs, default autoruns, and user-defined autoruns for the selected time frame. Possible values are as follows:
  • All: All Exachk runs
  • Default: Exachk runs from default autoruns autostart_client_exatier1 and autostart_client
  • Default (Modified): Exachk runs from default autoruns that have been modified
  • User-Defined: Exachk runs from user-defined autoruns invoked on scheduled intervals
  • On-Demand: Exachk runs invoked manually

The table below the ring charts shows details about Exachk runs across host targets in the Engineered System fleet. Some of the values are aggregated at the parent Engineered System target level. You can filter the table by clicking a section on the ring charts or through the filter control above the table. The following filter options are available for the table:

• Target: Engineered System target name. A sub-string search can be performed using the % wildcard character.
• Target Type: Engineered System target type. Possible values are Oracle Exadata Database Machine, Exadata Infrastructure, and Recovery Appliance.

Download Upgrade History File

Upgrade history files can be downloaded for host targets in order to view details of the last AHF upgrade operation. The file for a specific host can be downloaded by clicking on the download icon in the Log File column, specifying the host credentials, and clicking the OK button. The history file will be downloaded to the device where the browser is running.
