Goal

 How to install and execute asrexacheck 4.X.

 The asrexacheck script validates the ASR configuration of Engineered Systems.

 It will validate the OS and ILOM ASR configuration, it will report any concerns found and will send a set of test events which will result in an email being sent to the customer contact (setup in MOS) for each telemetry source tested.

Solution

Usage for Exadata & Oracle RA (formerly ZDLRA):

A) asrexacheck 4.X in full rack mode (exachk –profile hardware)

ASRexacheck is delivered as part of the Oracle Exadata Database Machine exachk or HealthCheck (Doc ID 1070954.1) and is the preferred method for downloading and executing this utility.

Step 1: Verify the version of exachk

Older versions of exachk do not support –v option so instead of printing a version it executes the script. 
If this happens, you will need to use the following command to verify version.

If exachk does not exist or the version is lower than 12.2.0.1.1 then get the current version of exachk. See Doc ID 1070954.1 Oracle Exadata Database Machine exachk or HealthCheck

Step 2: Run the following command to invoke the script on the first Database node:

Step 3: Use MOS to upload resulting zip to the SR

Be sure to upload the zip file to the SR related to your ASR issue or the Preventative Maintenance case that prompted you to launch this utility.

Step 4: Under the guidance of Domain Engineer run the following command to invoke the script on an individual node. Passing comma separated node names to run exachk only on subset of nodes.

B) asrexacheck 4.X in stand-alone mode

If you need to run asrexacheck outside of the higher level exachk process on a single node, perform the following steps.

For stand-alone we suggest putting asrexacheck in /opt/oracle.SupportTools/ however, it will not be run as part of exachk from that folder.
To be run as part of exachk it will need to be placed in /opt/oracle.SupportTools/exachk/.cgrep/ directory.
It makes more sense to update exachk than to copy the latest asrexacheck version there unless you are running a specific test version or are instructed by an ASR Domain Engineer.

Step 1: Verify the version of asrexacheck

Go to /opt/oracle.SupportTools/ and verify the name of the script.

or

If the version output is 4.2 then proceed to Step 3, if lower then proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Downloading and installing the current asrexacheck

Step 2.1: Download the asrexacheck_43.zip file located at the bottom of this page in the "Attachment" section.

Step 2.2: Copy the asrexacheck_43.zip to the following directory: /opt/oracle.SupportTools/

Step 2.3: Unzip the asrexacheck utility:

Step 2.4: Change the running permissions to execute

Step 3: Running asrexacheck in standalone mode

Zipfile will be created in /var/log/asrexacheck/

Example; /var/log/asrexacheck/asrexacheck_hostdb01_20160205T153628.zip

Step 4: Use MOS to upload resulting zip to the SR

Be sure to upload the zip file to the SR related to your ASR issue or the Preventative Maintenance case that prompted you to launch this utility.

Usage for Exalogic

Step 1: Verify the version of asrexacheck

Go to /opt/exalogic.tools/tools/ and verify the name of the script.

or

If the version output is 4.2 then proceed to Step 3, if lower then proceed to Step 2.

Step 2: Downloading and installing the current asrexacheck

Step 2.1: Download the asrexacheck_43.zip file located at the bottom of this page in the "Attachment" section.

Step 2.2: Copy the asrexacheck_43.zip to the following directory: /opt/exalogic.tools/tools/

Step 2.3: Unzip the asrexacheck utility:

Step 2.4: Change the running permissions to execute

Step 3: Running asrexacheck in standalone mode

Zipfile will be created in /var/log/asrexacheck/
