Starting with 11gR1, we have a new way to deal with Oracle Errors & Tracefiles: There is now a special command line utility dedicated for that purpose called adrci (Automatic Diagnostic Repository Command Interpreter). This posting is intended to show you the (in my view) essential commands, a DBA ought to know in order to use it. We will look at
- Viewing the alert.log
- The relation between incident & problem
- Creation of Packages & ZIP files to send to Oracle Support
- Managing, especially purging tracefiles
I will at first create a problem. Don’t do that with your Production Database! Especially: Never do DML on dictionary tables!

I flushed the Shared Pool to get the Data Dictionary Cache empty. Else the select may not crash the session as it did. Imagine the user calls me now on the phone. Our first idea as an experienced DBA: We look at the alert.log! Right so. Please notice that we now have two different kinds of the alert.log.
One is present in the conventional text format, per OFA in $ORACLE_BASE/diag/rdbms/name of the db/name of the instance/trace This location is determined by the new initialization parameter DIAGNOSTIC_DEST, while BACKGROUND_DUMP_DEST is deprecated in 11g.
1. Viewing the alert.log
The other one is in XML format placed in $ORACLE_BASE/diag/rdbms/name of the db/name of the instance/alert This version of the alert.log is accessed by adrci:
[oracle@uhesse ~]$ adrci ADRCI: Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production on Wed Jun 1 10:20:08 2011 Copyright (c) 1982, 2009, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. ADR base = "/u01/app/oracle" adrci> show home ADR Homes: diag/tnslsnr/uhesse/listener diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl
Please notice that we have different ADR Homes. In my case only two, because I am not using Grid Infrastructure on this Demo System, else there would be another one. I specify my Database Home first. Then I look at the alert.log. Good news if you are on Windows: Finally, you can tail -f your alert.log also

2. The relation between Incident & Problem
You see the incident was recorded in the alert.log. And it tells you “Use ADRCI or Support Workbench to package the incident.” We will soon see how to do that. First I’d like to explain the relation between incident and problem: An incident is the concrete occurrence of a problem. In other words: The same problem may have multiple incidents. To show that, I will open another terminal and do again a select against the table t, while still tailing the alert log from the first session.
Second terminal:

I have seen the second incident recorded. I exit out of the tail -f with CTRL+C and continue:

So I have one problem with the ID 1 and the last incident occurred at 10:22. Are there more?

3. Creation of Packages & ZIP files to send to Oracle Support
I may not be able to solve the problem myself. Oracle Support will help me with that one. I gather all the required information with a method called “Incident Packaging Service” (IPS):
adrci> ips create package problem 1 correlate all Created package 2 based on problem id 1, correlation level all
This did not yet create a ZIP file and is therefore referred to as “Logical Package”. The ZIP file is generated from the Logical Package that was created:
adrci> ips generate package 2 in "/home/oracle" Generated package 2 in file /home/oracle/ORA7445qc_20110601112533_COM_1.zip, mode complete
4. Managing, especially purging of tracefiles
Now to the management of tracefiles. You may notice that 11g creates lots of tracefiles that need to be purged from time to time. In fact, this is done automatically, but you may want to change the default purge policy:
adrci> show tracefile -rt 01-JUN-11 10:31:48 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mmon_2106.trc 01-JUN-11 09:43:43 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ckpt_2100.trc 01-JUN-11 09:22:13 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/alert_orcl.log 01-JUN-11 09:22:11 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_diag_2088.trc 01-JUN-11 09:22:10 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2299.trc 01-JUN-11 09:22:10 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/incident/incdir_6201/orcl_ora_2299_i6201.trc 01-JUN-11 09:18:47 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2236.trc 01-JUN-11 09:18:47 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/incident/incdir_6153/orcl_ora_2236_i6153.trc 01-JUN-11 09:17:19 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dbrm_2090.trc 01-JUN-11 09:16:44 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_j002_2210.trc 01-JUN-11 09:16:30 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2187.trc 01-JUN-11 09:16:19 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_2094.trc 01-JUN-11 09:16:16 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_2082.trc 01-JUN-11 09:16:14 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2016.trc 30-MAY-11 14:07:02 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mmon_2093.trc 30-MAY-11 11:15:30 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_3414.trc 30-MAY-11 11:00:01 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_j000_2245.trc 30-MAY-11 10:56:58 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dbrm_2077.trc 30-MAY-11 10:56:20 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_j002_2201.trc 30-MAY-11 10:56:06 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2178.trc 30-MAY-11 10:55:58 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_2081.trc 30-MAY-11 10:55:55 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_2069.trc 30-MAY-11 10:55:53 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_2006.trc 27-MAY-11 10:53:25 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mmon_8589.trc 27-MAY-11 10:17:05 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_11390.trc 27-MAY-11 09:26:41 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_10739.trc 27-MAY-11 09:23:53 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dbrm_8573.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:58 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8687.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:54 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_8577.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:50 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_8565.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:48 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8516.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:44 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8515.trc 27-MAY-11 09:22:44 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_8347.trc 27-MAY-11 09:21:24 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dbrm_8355.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:29 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8470.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:28 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mmon_8371.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:28 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8381.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:26 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_8359.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:20 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8299.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:15 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8297.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:15 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_8096.trc 27-MAY-11 09:20:07 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8296.trc 27-MAY-11 09:19:42 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8285.trc 27-MAY-11 09:19:33 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dm00_8271.trc 27-MAY-11 09:19:33 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dw00_8273.trc 27-MAY-11 09:19:11 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_dbrm_8104.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:53 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8267.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:33 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_j001_8237.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:26 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mmon_8219.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:23 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8231.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:22 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_cjq0_8229.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:16 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8131.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:14 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_m000_8223.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:13 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_8108.trc 27-MAY-11 09:18:05 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8048.trc 27-MAY-11 09:17:59 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_vktm_7920.trc 27-MAY-11 09:17:59 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_8046.trc 27-MAY-11 09:17:00 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_mman_7932.trc 27-MAY-11 09:16:56 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_7954.trc 27-MAY-11 09:16:51 diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl/trace/orcl_ora_7871.trc
I have already got some tracefiles. How long are they going to stay?
adrci> show control ADR Home = /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl: ************************************************************************* ADRID SHORTP_POLICY LONGP_POLICY LAST_MOD_TIME LAST_AUTOPRG_TIME LAST_MANUPRG_TIME ADRDIR_VERSION ADRSCHM_VERSION ADRSCHMV_SUMMARY ADRALERT_VERSION CREATE_TIME -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- 1335663986 720 8760 2011-05-27 10:16:46.997118 +02:00 1 2 80 1 2011-05-27 10:16:46.997118 +02:00 1 rows fetched
The ordinary tracefiles will stay for 30 days (720 hours), while files like incident files stay one year (8760 hours) by default. We can change that policy with for example:
adrci> set control (SHORTP_POLICY = 360) adrci> set control (LONGP_POLICY = 2190) adrci> show control ADR Home = /u01/app/oracle/diag/rdbms/orcl/orcl: ************************************************************************* ADRID SHORTP_POLICY LONGP_POLICY LAST_MOD_TIME LAST_AUTOPRG_TIME LAST_MANUPRG_TIME ADRDIR_VERSION ADRSCHM_VERSION ADRSCHMV_SUMMARY ADRALERT_VERSION CREATE_TIME -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- -------------------- ---------------------------------------- 1335663986 360 2190 2011-06-01 11:42:17.208064 +02:00 1 2 80 1 2011-05-27 10:16:46.997118 +02:00 1 rows fetched
Also, we may want to purge tracefiles manually. Following command will manually purge all tracefiles older than 2 days(2880 minutes):

Conclusion: With adrci, we have a new and efficient utility to deal with Oracle Errors – especially for collecting information to send them to Oracle Support. This functionality is called Incident Packaging Service. 11g is generating lots of tracefiles. We can control the purging policy of them with adrci. Finally, we can now tail -f our alert.log from any OS.
