Last updated on APRIL 17, 2023
Applies to:
Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition - Version 11.2.0.4 and laterInformation in this document applies to any platform.
Purpose
The purpose of this document to help diagnosing issue 'TFA-00002 Oracle Trace File Analyzer (TFA) is not running'.
Note:
Oracle Support strongly recommends using Trace File Analyzer (TFA) Collector for collecting data.
1. TFA Collector collects only relevant information based on the time of the event, so the size of collected data will be much smaller.
2. TFA Collector collects all CRS log files, ASM trace files, database trace files, OSWatcher output, and CHM (Cluster Health Monitor) output.
In case, if you have the latest TFA Collector already installed then upload TFA logs while creating/raising an SR, this will save considerable time for the entire triage process.
