Log File Analysis for Oracle 11g

This add on is a basic step-by-step “how to” for Oracle DB monitoring using a variety of data inputs including various log files, the audit trail, trigger-based TCP inputs, shell scripts, and Splunk DB Connect. Common lookup tables, field extractions, reports, and dashboards are also examined. All methods are demonstrated using a virtual server environment based on Oracle VM VirtualBox that can be easily duplicated by the reader. The abstract of the paper is available on the Documentation tab.
