D Managing the Cluster Resource Activity Log

Oracle Clusterware stores logs about resource failures in the cluster resource activity log, which is located in the Grid Infrastructure Management Repository.

Failures can occur as a result of a problem with a resource, a hosting node, or the network.

The cluster resource activity log provides precise and specific information about a resource failure, separate from diagnostic logs. The cluster resource activity log also provides a unified view of the cause of resource failure.

Use the following commands to manage and view the contents of the cluster resource activity log:

• crsctl query calog
  Query the cluster resource activity logs matching specific criteria.
• crsctl get calog maxsize
  To store Oracle Clusterware-managed resource activity information, query the maximum space allotted to the cluster resource activity log.
• crsctl get calog retentiontime
  Query the retention time of the cluster resource activity log.
• crsctl set calog maxsize
  Configure the maximum amount of space allotted to store Oracle Clusterware-managed resource activity information.
• crsctl set calog retentiontime
  Configure the retention time of the cluster resource activity log.
