ORAchk 之前被称为RACcheck，后来它的用途进行了扩展，改名为了ORAchk，它是在数据库系统进行健康检查的一个专用工具，这个工具主要用来检查软件的配置是否符合要求以及一些最佳实践是否被应用了。通过这个工具，用户可以很方便地、自动化地对自己的系统进行健康检查和评估。

ORAchk 能够检查的软件主要有：OS、Oracle Clusterware (CRS)、 Grid Infrastructure environment(GI)、Automatic Storage Management (ASM)以及Real Application Clusters (RAC)、单实例数据库、Golden Gate。ORAchk更多信息可参考MOS文档1268927.2

Oracle ORAchk支持的平台

以下平台支持Oracle ORAchk：

• Intel Linux* (Oracle Linux/RedHat 4, 5, 6, 7 and SuSE 9, 10, 11, 12)
• Linux on System Z (RedHat 6, 7 and SuSE 12)
• Oracle Solaris SPARC (Solaris 9, 10, and 11)
• Oracle Solaris x86-64 (Solaris 9, 10, and 11)
• AIX
• HPUX
• Microsoft Windows (2008 and 2012)

*不支持Linux Itanium

*在32位EBS环境中仅支持32位平台使用命令./orachk -ebs32bit

1.1. 安装1. ORAchk

1.1.1. 单实例安装ORAchk

[root@host1 /]# mkdir /orachk
[root@host1 /]# cd /orachk/
[root@host1 orachk]# unzip orachk.zip
[root@host1 /]# chown -R oracle:oinstall /orachk
[root@host1 orachk]# chmod 755 orachk

1.1.2. RAC安装ORAchk

[root@rac2 ~]# mkdir /orachk
[root@rac2 ~]# cd /orachk/
[root@rac2 orachk]# unzip orachk.zip
[root@rac2 orachk]# chmod 755 orachk

1.2. 卸载Oracle ORAchk

1）停止所有活动的Oracle ORAchk daemon客户端

[root@rac2 orachk]# ./orachk -d stop_client

2）停止任何正在运行的Oracle ORAchk daemon

[root@rac2 orachk]# ./orachk -d stop

3）从自动重新启动配置中删除Oracle ORAchk daemon

[root@rac2 orachk]# ./orachk -initrmsetup

4）删除Oracle ORAchk安装目录

[root@rac2 orachk]# rm -rf /orachk/

1.3. 升级ORAchk

每个数据库PSU都包含创建时可用的最新Oracle ORAchk版本。应用数据库PSU时，包含的ORAchk将在$ORACLE_HOME/suptools中暂存。

在下次运行时，如果PSU复制的版本比安装的版本新，则Oracle ORAchk会提示进行升级。

1.3.1. 单实例升级ORAchk

MOS文档1268927.2下载最新的ORAchk

1）升级前检查

[oracle@host1 orachk]$ pwd
/u01/app/oracle/product/18.1.0/dbhome_1/suptools/orachk
[oracle@host1 orachk]$./orachk -u -o pre

2）查看当前版本

[oracle@host1 orachk]$ ./orachk -v
ORACHK VERSION: 12.2.0.1.4_20171127

3）升级

将环境变量RAT_UPGRADE_LOC设置下载的ORAchk压缩包存放的目录。

[oracle@host1 orachk]$ export RAT_UPGRADE_LOC=/orachk/
[oracle@host1 orachk]$ ./orachk

[oracle@host1 orachk]$ ./orachk -v

ORACHK VERSION: 18.2.0_20180518

如果已设置RAT_UPGRADE_LOC但不想升级，则仍可以使用-noupgrade选项运行Oracle ORAchk：

[oracle@host1 orachk]$./orachk –noupgrade

4）升级后检查

[oracle@host1 orachk]$./orachk -u -o post

注意：

如果在RAT_UPGRADE_LOC中具有最新版本并且还不想升级，请使用-ngradegrade选项。

在RAT_UPGRADE_LOC中使用-noupgrade而没有最新版本仍会提示您下载最新版本。

1.3.2. RAC升级ORAchk

2）查看当前版本

[grid@rac2 orachk]$ ./orachk -v

ORAchk 检查完成之后会生成一个html报告，这个报告的命名为：orachk_节点名_数据库名_时间.html，比如orachk_host1_PDBCNDBA_072518_100235.html。同时，它还会把所有的输出文件都打包为一个.zip文件，比如orachk_host1_PDBCNDBA_072518_100235.zip，可以把这个.zip文件从RAC服务器上下载到本地的windows，解压后查看其中的生成的orachk_节点名_数据库名_时间.html 这一个文件就可以。

生成的报告也非常简单、清晰，在报告最上部会列出这次检查的分数，满分是100分。

1.5. rac 执行ORAchk检查

ORAchk会自动识别CRS HOME，请用户确认（当然，检查单实例就没有这个问题了），还会提问是检查集群中的哪个数据库。因为RAC的所有实例的主机都会执行检查，如果以前没有配置过root用户的用户等效性，还会自动帮你配置，也都比较简单，跟着提示做就可以。

[root@rac2 orachk]# ./orachk

Clusterware stack is running from /u01/app/18.1.0/grid. Is this the correct Clusterware Home?[y/n][y]

Checking ssh user equivalency settings on all nodes in cluster for root

Node rac1 is not configured for ssh user equivalency and the orachk uses ssh to execute checks on remote nodes.
Without passwordless ssh orachk can not run audit checks on the remote nodes.
If necessary due to security policies the orachk can be run on each node using -localonly option.

Enter rac1 root password :
