Audit Vault Server Agent install 10.3
I am installing Audit Vauilt 10.3 on a 12c database.
So far, I have Audit Vault Server installed and also the Collection Agent ON the same host.
So, do I have to correct that I have to install THE AVAGENT on each host/database that I want to collect the audit logs from?
thanks
I am following this doc:

Error while trying to start Audit Collector on the Audit Vault Server 10g
Hi,
We are trying to build a demo environment for testing Oracle Audit Vault 10g but we are having some trouble.
Our environment is like this: Oracle Audit Vault Server is installed on Windows Server 2003 SP2, while the Audit Vault Agent is installed on an Oracle 10g Release 2 database which resided on Windows server 2003 SP1. This two Windows Server machines are both installed as virtual machines.
We have successfully created the Agent and the Collector on Audit Vault Server and the Agent starts successfully while when we try to start the collector we get an error which says " Http Communication error: Http Communication error: 500" and the collector does not start.
We are new to the Audit Vault Software so we would really appreciate some help on how to resolve this issue because we have got stuck here and can not go on with our work.
Thanks in advance for your time
Best regards
EngridHi,
Thanks again for all of your replies but now we are getting another error with the OSAUD collector. We are able to add the collector successfully by using the avorcldb all_collector command.
Source database is 10g R2 (10.2.1) and we configured it for collecting the audit records in the OS audit trail by using the following statement: ALTER SYSTEM SET AUDIT_TRAIL=OS SCOPE=SPFILE;, and the SHOW PARAMETER AUDIT command returns the following values :
NAME TYPE VALUE
audit_file_dest string C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN
\<db_name>\ADUMP
audit_sys_operations boolean TRUE
audit_trail string OS
We don't know if the values set for the audit_file_dest is correct but after we start working on the database and execute some statements Oracle is not creating any files on this destinations while for the same statements when the Audit_trail=DB, EXTENDED the audit values for these statements are written in the appropriate table.
So we do not know if this is the cause but when we try to start the OSAUD collector defined on the Audit Vault Server it can not start and gives us the follwing error: "could not start collector OSAUD_Collector for source <source name>, directory access error for C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN\<db_name>\ADUMP".
Sorry for the message being so long but we really need some help with this issue.
thanks in advance.

OS: Suse Linux 10 SP 2
Oracle Audit Vault Version:10.2.3.2.4
Two nodes RAC database
After patch the Oracle Audit Vault Server I began to notice the following message at the second instance alert log:
ora-12012 error on auto execute of job 23
PLS-00201 identifier 'DVSYS.SYNCHRONIZE_POLICY_FOR_OBJECT' must be declared
In fact there is not any procedure or function with that name at DVSYS schema, so why is there some job that call it?Hello experts
I am confuse due to the audit vault server is installed sucefull and later I can connect me into the database but during the isntallation process some I get some errors on the database oracle vault component and the last compoent (AVAC) fails. The errors begin with this:
Rule_set: java_sql.SQLException: ora24141 rule set dvsys.dv$1 does not exist.
This is my first audit vault server installation so I have not experience with that product. I really need your help. -
Hi everyone
when changing the hostname of an AV Server in the newly released version 12.1.2, it can take up to 10 minutes from the time a user click ok on the pop-up message "Are you sure you want to reboot the Audit Vault Server for the changes to take affect" to the system actually shutting down for the reboot. The machine must not be manually rebooted as this will cause errors.
Some background information was provided by one of Oracle's developers for this product:
AVDF 12.1.2.0.0 uses Oracle Grid in Restart Configuration. This is needed to leverage the ASM infrastructure to create diskgroups etc. So, when a hostname of a system is changed, the entire Grid stack needs to be re-configured to work under the new hostname. This re-configuration is needed because Grid creates a lot of directories with the hostname in them and when the hostname is changed, it tries to look for critical configuration files under this new "hostname" and of course, they would not be present. Hence, when we change the hostname, an entire re-configuration of the Clusterware is attempted, at which point a new set of directories with the new hostname will be created by the Grid software.
This reconfiguration operation may take a few minutes to several minutes depending on the hardware/resource specs. This is because re-configuration of the Clusterware stack is a heavy-weight operation and takes time (It needs to shutdown all the CRS services and re-configure them and bring them back up). Hence, the long duration it takes before re-boot. You *MUST NOT* reboot it manually before the system automatically reboots -- otherwise the re-configuration operation will only be half-done. The chances of this re-configuration operation failing is very, very minimal (based on our tests). So, given enough time it _WILL_ complete eventually and the system _WILL_ automatically reboot. You just need to wait for it to happen.
Hope this will avoid any issues,
greetings,
Harm ten NapelI may add it was my personal impatience that lead to this discovery: I was re-imaging my virtualbox install with the new 12.1.2 version (for testing purposes) and I want my AV server to be called 'auditvault', when it appeared nothing was happening (but there was) I rebooted the system manually with said results...

Audit Vault server Installation taking days.
Dear DBA's
This is my First Implementation of Database Vault.
I am installing Audit Vault 12.1 on Linux 5 update 8 in VM Where.
but in the middle of the installation it will ask for reboot--Install Complete.
after rebooting it is showing installing oracle and not changing the screen last 2days.
is Oracle Vault support VM Where?
How much time will it take to finish the Installation?
Common issues while installing Oracle Vault?
Kindly help me on above queries.
Regards,
SGIt is always best not to force install an Oracle product, or any product for that matter, into an environment where you don't have installation instructions and where support will be essentially non-existent as few others have that environment.
Audit Vault is a security product and belongs in the most secure, stable environment you can provide. Why not install based on Oracle's documented instructions? -

I start the AV Agent runInstaller, and fill the details like AVAgent name, Username, connect String etc, then click on next , it throws the following error:
"error1: the AV server is expecting an agent with the given name to be installed on another machine"
I am able to ping from Windows to HP machine and Vice versa (By IP Address and Hostname).
Can anyone tell me where i am going wrong and how to solve it.
Please mail to my email address ([email protected])
Thanks & Regards,

Audit Vault Agent sizing (harware requirements)
Hi, I need to provide my customer an estimation of the disk space needed for the Audit Vault Agent, size of archivelog files of the source database so that REDO collector could work without problems, and other demands of source side (audit vault agent) versus audit vault server?
Is there any document like "audit vault configuration best practice" related with hardware requirements (size of disk space, size of archivelog files, aud records...)???
Thank you all in advance..
Edited by: user10600747 on Jan 4, 2011 5:21 AMHi Elmin,
I was doing implementation on Audit Vault with around twenty source databases. These were hardware requirements:
Server:
HP-UX 11.31, 2 CPUs, 16 GB RAM, 1TB of storage for database
Agent (these are from the installation guide):
- At least 512 MB of available physical memory (RAM)
- Swap space of 1024 MB or twice the size of RAM
- 400 MB of disk space in the /tmp directory
- 1.6 GB of disk space for the Oracle Audit Vault collection agent software (but if you apply patches you need actually more than this).
Regards,

Why it is referring to 03-OCT-2011 ? how do i view the reports.
Am I missing something!!
regards,
OrackzyHi,
The error is that this agent already exists. If you added it before inadvertently, you will have to provide a new agent name.
avca add_agent -agentname agent1 -agenthost salesdb.us.example.com
AVCA started
Adding agent...
Enter agent user name: agentusername
Enter agent user password: agent user pwd
Re-enter agent user password: agent user pwd
Agent added successfully.
Thanks.

Hi experts,
I'm interesting in Oracle Audit Vault and going to prepare a test environment. I have an Oracle 10.2.0.3 Database running on HP Itanium platform and want to be install a Audit Vault server on Windows.
However, I got problem of implement Audit Vault on my test environment.
1. For 10.2.0.3 Audit Vault
On OTN, I can get the Audit Vault Collection Agent on Itanium platform, but I cannot get Audit Vault Server on Windows platform.
2. For 10.2.0.2 Audit Vault
I cannot get any 10.2.0.2 source on OTN at this moment. Although I have a 10.2.0.2 Audit Vault Server(Windows), I still cannot get collection agent on Itanium.
Please somebody give me any suggestion?
When will the 10.2.0.3 Audit Vault Server software put on OTN? or Will 10.2.0.2 Audit Vault s/w will put on OTN again?
Thanks,

I am able to install the Oracle Audit Vault Server on the following features:
OS: Suse Linux 10 SP 2
Clusterware version: 11.1.0 6
The Oracle Audit Vault server installation procces creates the database an starts the instances on each node and notice me the url for the Enterprise Manager but after that it fails at DVCA assistante because is not able to load the shared library libpthread.so.0.
I found in internet that some time there are files like srvctl, vipca, etc tha export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL ant we have to comment that line, but I do not found the line in those files. I just found in the crsctl file this line like
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
PD: The libpthread.so.0 library already exist
Should I comment this line at crsctl file?
