Diagcollection.pl

Diagcollection.pl is a script used to collect the diagnostic information from clusterware installation. The script provides you with additional information so that the Oracle Support can resolve problems.

Invoking diagcollection script

Step 1: Log in as Root
Step 2: Set up the following environment variables

# export ORACLE_BASE= /..../
# export ORACLE_HOME = /..../
# export ORA_CRS_HOME = /.../

Step 3: Run the script

# cd $ORA_CRS_HOME/bin
# ./diagcollection.pl -collect


The script generates the following files in the local directory,

basData_.tar.gz (contains logfiles from ORACLE_BASE/admin)
crsData_.tar.gz (logs from $ORA_CRS_HOME/log/)
ocrData_.tar.gz (results of ocrcheck, ocrdump and ocr backups)
oraData_.tar.gz (logs from $ORACLE_HOME/log/)

To collect only subset of log files , you can invoke as follows,

# ./diagcollection.pl -collect -crs (CRS log files)
# ./diagcollection.pl -collect -oh (ORACLE_HOME logfiles)
# ./diagcollection.pl -collect -ob (ORACLE_BASE logfiles)
# ./diagcollection.pl -collect -all (default)

To clean out the files generated from the last run

# ./diagcollection.pl -clean

To extract only the core files found in the generated files and store it in a text file,

# ./diagcollection.pl -coreanalyze
