About the Listener Availability Metric |
A) Where is the Listener Monitoring Configuration Info stored? |
B) Troubleshooting the Listener Up/down Status |
1) Check to see if there is an error message associated with the down status. |
2) check whether the listener name, listener directory and machine name 'monitoring configuration details' stored in Cloud Control are correct. |
3) Confirm that the ORACLE_HOME of the listener defined in the monitoring configuration is correct |
4a) Use the entries from targets.xml to double check the listener information |
4b) Simulate the EM tnsping command |
5) Is the machine name defined correctly? |
6) Check whether the response metric is running |
7) Check whether the agent can currently evaluate the metric correctly |
8) Check the severity history of the target on the agent itself. |
9) Manually run the metric collection. |
10) Perform a clearstate on the agent |
11) Run the lsnrresp.pl script manually |
C) Commonly hit scenarios which cause incorrect listener status |
i) The listener is down: tnsping not found in/bin. |
iii) Listener is configured for TCPS. |
iv)Listener using IPC protocol shows as down. |
