Diagnostics Collection Script

When an Oracle Clusterware error occurs, run the diagcollection.pl diagnostics collection script to collect diagnostic information from Oracle Clusterware into trace files. The diagnostics provide additional information so My Oracle Support can resolve problems. Run this script as root from the Grid_home/bin directory.

Syntax

Use the diagcollection.pl script with the following syntax:

diagcollection.pl {--collect [--crs | --acfs | -all] [--chmos [--incidenttime time [--incidentduration time]]]
   [--adr ___location [--aftertime time [--beforetime time]]]
   [--crshome path | --clean | --coreanalyze}]

Note:

The diagcollection.pl script arguments are all preceded by two dashes (--).

Parameters

Table J-11 lists and describes the parameters used with the diagcollection.pl script.

Parameter Description 
--collect

Use this parameter with any of the following arguments:

  • --crs: Use this argument to collect Oracle Clusterware diagnostic information

  • --acfs: Use this argument to collect Oracle ACFS diagnostic information

    Note: You can only use this argument on UNIX systems.

  • --all: Use this argument to collect all diagnostic information except CHM (OS) data

    Note: This is the default.

  • --chmos: Use this argument to collect the following CHM diagnostic information

    --incidenttime time: Use this argument to collect CHM (OS) data from the specified time

    Note: The time format is MM/DD/YYYYHH24:MM:SS.

    --incidentduration time: Use this argument with --incidenttime to collect CHM (OS) data for the duration after the specified time

    Note: The time format is HH:MM. If you do not use --incidentduration, then all CHM (OS) data after the time you specify in --incidenttime is collected.

  • --adr ___location: The Automatic Diagnostic Repository Command Interpreter (ADRCI) uses this argument to specify a ___location in which to collect diagnostic information for ADR

    See Also: Oracle Database Utilities for more information about ADRCI

  • --aftertime time: Use this argument with the --adr argument to collect archives after the specified time

    Note: The time format is YYYYMMDDHHMISS24.

  • --beforetime time: Use this argument with the --adr argument to collect archives before the specified time

    Note: The time format is YYYYMMDDHHMISS24.

  • --crshome path: Use this argument to override the ___location of the Oracle Clusterware home

    Note: The diagcollection.pl script typically derives the ___location of the Oracle Clusterware home from the system configuration (either the olr.loc file or the Windows registry), so this argument is not required.

 
--clean

Use this parameter to clean up the diagnostic information gathered by the diagcollection.pl script.

Note: You cannot use this parameter with --collect.

 
--coreanalyze

Use this parameter to extract information from core files and store it in a text file.

Note: You can only use this parameter on UNIX systems.
