How do you manage your log, trace files...?

cayenneApr 20 2010 — edited Apr 22 2010
Hello all,

Just curious, what do ya'll do (particularly on unix/linux system) to manage your logs? Do you have scripts that periodically move your alert logs somewhere or just delete them periodically? What about trc files generated...other log files (say from opmn, agents...etc).

Just curious on what most people do to manage them...do you copy them via a cron job periodically? Do you have something monitoring the log directories to look for when space might start getting full...something that emails or alerts you?

Do you have any links to sites that might have good shell scripts out there for Oracle database maintenance in general to learn from?

Thanks in advance,

cayenne

Are you able to manually mount the exported NFS on the OVM server?

Hi there. Yes I was able to manually mount the nfs. I actually fixed the issue as it was the permission settings but then it didn't create the standard directories (like ISO, Templates etc). so I created a nfs volume on my NAS and it all went well.

So you can't export a normal filesystem or directory cause won't work....it that right?

Cheers

Guess no… if you're at the point, where you can manually mount the NFS export on the target host, everything should be working smoothly and OVMM should create the needed directories. But beware, don't export the root of a volume via NFS to OVMS as this will cause you some headaches, once you want to destroy the repo, since OVM then won't be able to delete the lost+found folder.

OK. anyway it's fixed now.

Thanks
