Customize alerts on ALERT.log file? And another question

We just setup and have started to use Grid Control. So far, I have been very pleased with what I have seen.
Just some questions though.
Is there a way to customize the "Generic Alert Log Error Status"?
Can we have exclusions for that alert? We get are getting messages on alerts for a bug that exists in one of our DB's. If we can some how exclude this particular error, that would be great. That possible?
Secondly, can you schedule checks on a database to check the state of the database? This is something I would like to do if possible.
THanks.

Go to targets - databases - <database>
On this page on the left side, you'll see a heading "Diagnostic Summary"
The you'll see something like:Alert Log <date>
Click on the date, go to the bottom of the page and click on "Generic Alert Log Error Monitoring Configuration"
Here you can configure exactly what alert log messages you want.
Yes, depending on what it is you want to do. Look at User Defined Metrics, Reports and possibly Jobs to see what fits best with want you want to do.

  • Is the disk equal to log files and other questions?

    In the web page http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/je/GettingStartedGuide/introduction.html#dplfeatures, there is a statement, " The checkpointer is responsible for flushing database data to *disk* that was written to cache as the result of a transaction commit ".
    I wonder if the disk here means log files under the JE home directory.
    From my understanding of these documents and other web resources, the check pointer is to write records in Cache to Log files (disk), and then cleaner is to reorganize and then to remove unused log files. For the records in a Cache, they are brought from disk to Cache by querying the index organized in a B-Tree structure, and the In-Compressor is to delete some empty internal nodes of B-Tree.
    I wonder if the above is right to describe relations among these components, check pointer, cleaner, B-Tree and In-Compressor.
    Thanks for your help!
    Best,

  • WebAnalyticsServiceApplication_ReportingDB log file and secondary DB files issue

    Hello everyone,
    So we have a problem, a customer has a SP2010 farm, SP on one server and SQL 2008r2 on another. Little (read none by the looks of things) maintenance has been applied to the server (both SQL and SP other than patching and windows backups) over nearly a year
    and we are here now to upgrade to SQL 2012, found the current state and the situation is as follows (up-to now):
    The SP install was done from the search server binaries to give better search options (thought this may be prudent to disclose)
    The WebAnalyticsServiceApplication_ReportingDB log file is HUGE and will not truncate, Ive done the following:
    backed up (full) the DB for web analytics  
    backed up log files for same DB (with truncate selected) (both through gui in SQL MS)
    Tried to shrink log file (this told me through the gui that 99% was free in the log file, but it freed up only 1%, even after trying again and selecting 'reorganise pages before releasing unused space' and selecting 0MB for the 'shrink to' size)
    Also, there are over 30 secondary DB files for this database, Ive seen other threads about these files but am stuck as how to do the following...
    no one uses the web analytics
    the data is not needed
    I understand it maybe needed in the future
    we do not need the data
    how should I get rid and stop future log file and secondary DB file growth? 
    Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated. 

    For reference, you can control how long SP keeps the Web analytics data (which does generate one extra .ndf per week).
    To set the limit on the data retention period:
    On the Central Administration Web site, in the Application Management section, click
    Manage service applications.
    Click the Web Analytics Service Application row to select it and in the
    Operations group of the ribbon click Properties.
    In the dialog box, in the Data Retention Period section, set the data retention period, which can range from 1 month to 25 months.

  • Reading log file and calculating time between

    If someone could help me with this one, I would be very grateful.
    I have a log file and I need to search a string that contains a start time and end time (eg. <time="11:10:58.000+000">). When I have these two values, I need to measure the time that has been elapsed between these two (from start to end).

    $Path="C:\Times.log"
    remove-item $Path
    Add-Content $Path '<time="11:10:58.000+000">'
    Add-Content $Path '<time="12:10:58.000+000">'
    Add-Content $Path '<time="13:10:58.000+000">'
    Add-Content $Path '<time="15:13:38.000+000">'
    Add-Content $Path '<time="16:10:58.000+000">'
    Add-Content $Path '<time="17:08:28.000+000">'
    $File=Get-Content $Path
    $StartTime=$Null
    $EndTime=$Null
    $ElapsedTime = $Null
    ForEach ($Line in $File)
    If ($Line.Contains("time="))
    $Position = $Line.IndexOf("time=")
    $TimeStr =$Line.SubString($Position+6,8)
    IF ($StartTime -EQ $Null)
    $StartTime = $TimeStr -As [System.TimeSpan]
    Else
    $EndTime = $TimeStr -As [System.TimeSpan]
    $ElapsedTime = $EndTime.Subtract($StartTime)
    "StartTime=$StartTime EndTime=$EndTime ElapsedTime=$ElapsedTime"
    $StartTime = $Null
    Gives this output
    StartTime=11:10:58 EndTime=12:10:58 ElapsedTime=01:00:00
    StartTime=13:10:58 EndTime=15:13:38 ElapsedTime=02:02:40
    StartTime=16:10:58 EndTime=17:08:28 ElapsedTime=00:57:30

  • Apply exakt steps from History log file to another image?

    Alright. If you edit an image and the history log option is turned on, you can look at the exakt steps you've made with all the settings for the individual tools and effects used. Also steps you make can be recorded with the actions tool.
    My question is, are there any way to "play" the steps listed in the history log file, as if it were an action?
    I need to apply alot of steps to several images but I never recorded the steps I've made with the actions tool. However they are "recorded" in the history log file and I could go in and look and recreate all those steps manually, but that would take too much time...
    Are there any plug-ins or are there any other way to do what I need to get done?
    Cheers
    Martin

    1. you can set your preferences to record the history to a txt file or the files metadata.
    I assumed that is what the OP already did as indicated in
    If you edit an image and the history log option is turned on,
    wonder why there are no feature in Photoshop to replay all one have done, to any image?
    As you know there is, it’s Actions (as with Scripting not all functionality records; Edit: and not all functionality is applicable to all files because of Color Mode and Bit Depth for example). But it is up to you to employ the necessary foresight to know what to record beforehand.
    Also a non-destructive workflow can help make many effects/compositions/etc. easily transfer-/recreateable. 

  • Show RMAN  message in log file and screen at same time

    Is there any way I can save all RMAN message in a log file and also show on standar out (screen).
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can try a shell script like this if you are using linux:
    #!/bin/sh
    # Name: test_backup
    # Author: Tad_cs
    # Description: Executes backup using the RMAN
    export ORACLE_HOME=$1
    export ORACLE_SID=$2
    export LOG_DIR=$3
    # Variables:
    SCRIPT="test_backup"
    data_log=`date '+%y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S'`
    logfile=${LOG_DIR}/${SCRIPT}-${data_log}.log
    # Execution of script backup of rman:
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin/rman <<EOF > $logfile
    connect target rman/rman
    connect catalog rman/rman
    run { execute script test_backup; }
    EOF
    exitSo, While the script is performing, you can open other screen, search for
    the log that is generating, and see the contents using:
    tail -f log_file_name.logIs this you need?

  • Printing messages in Log File and Output File using Dbms_output.put_line

    Hi,
    I have a requirement of printing messages in log file and output file using dbms_output.put_line instead of fnd_file.put_line API.
    Please let me know how can I achieve this.
    I tried using a function to print messages and calling that function in my main package where ever there is fnd_file.put_line. But this approach is not required by the business.
    So let me know how I can achieve this functionality.

  • Macbook pro starts up but i see picture of some files and a question mark

    So I was on my laptop today and it just outta nowhere froze , the song i was listening stopped and i couldn't change the page, i could move the trackpad but nothing else.
    so i clicked on the off button and turned it off.
    then i tried to turn it on again but while loading it just stayed blank and this picture of some files and a question mark on them appeared, i have no idea what's going on.
    I turned it off again and turned it back on and the little apple appeared and it was loading but then a sign appeared like one of prohibited (the one that's a circle and has a slash across it) and idk what to do! i'm so frustrated all my school files are there and idk why this happened in the first place.
    i turned it off and just put it to charge.
    lately i've been using it a lot and i had a few things on when it froze , so im just gonna leave it off for a while but what can i do?
    how do u solve this? has anyone had this happened to their macbook pro already? i bought it just last year idk why this is happening.

    The folder and question mark means it cannot find a valid OSX Boot Volume, you need to Boot from your original install DVD (hold c at start) and then run Disc Utility from the top menu bar and run both 'Repair Disc' and 'Repair Permissions'. If it still doesn't boot from the internal hard drive then you need to boot from that install DVD again and do an archive (re)install of the operating system. (Your User data will be saved that way)

  • What is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log File and How do I Shrink it?

    I know OS X Server uses PostgreSQL now instead of MySQL which is fine by me. I am trying to figure out what is in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log file in Library/Logs/PostgreSQL/ . It is about 188 GB right now and ideally instead of relocating it along with other services to another drive from the nice 256GB SSD that is in the system I would like to understand what is in the database and how to manage it's size better.
    Any pointers for best practice on managing the database or what the heck is in it?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the response. I mistyped in the question as I understood it was a log file. The DB itself is only about 1-2GB. As for reviewing I am fine with modifying the permissions and examining the file in the console or other app but I am most interested in how to manage it safely. Can I just clear the log contents? If so what is the safe way to do so? I know with many DB's the log file is critical to it's function and if things happen to the log file it can render the DB unusable. In addition what is the best way to modify the rotation routine it uses and set the logging level? (I have pasted the .plist contents for Postgresql for Server Services below)
    I have also downloaded and installed pgAdmin but have not gone through the steps of connecting it to the DB and log file (users setup etc.)
