RE: Any scripts to check the health of the database
This is something that I am looking for a way to check on an 8.1.7 database running on NT without me physically having to login myself. Is there some automated way to do this, that maybe can send an email to a computer operator?? Thanks, Dave -Original Message- Sent: Wednesday, April 24, 2002 4:13 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Personally, I think that many folks go a bit overboard when it comes to checking the health of a database. These are the things I like to check for: * is the database up? this is the most important tech check * status of jobs in DBA_JOBS * space issues. Will a table be able to extend N times without error? * are the users happy? This is actually more important than any of the technical issues. There's a lot of other things you can check, but personnaly, I quit checking them long ago. I do log a few things from the database, and periodically store the explain plans for SQLin the cache for troubleshooting later the things go awry. This is really not part of a periodic health check though, this is a whole different matter. One thing to keep in mind: Rolling your own helps you to understand what's being monitored. :) Jared Praveen Sahni [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] 04/24/2002 12:24 PM Please respond to ORACLE-L To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject:Any scripts to check the health of the database Hi All, I need to write a report on the health of a database.
