Andrej's RAC Utility

Andrej's RAC Utility

The arutil GitHub repository contains a command line utility for working with Oracle RAC.

ARUTIL does not change any RAC configuration on its own. ARUTIL only runs some RAC commands to collect the RAC configuration information. This information will be presented to you for monitoring or making some changes.

ARUTIL could run the following GI/RAC commands:

  • CRS_HOME/bin/olsnodes
  • CRS_HOME/bin/srvctl config
  • CRS_HOME/bin/srvctl status
  • RAC_HOME/bin/srvctl config
  • RAC_HOME/bin/srvctl status

This utility is developed for DBAs. That’s why this command should be executed by DBA’s OS user account (oracle). The RAC environment (ORACLE_HOME, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH) must be set before starting ARUTIL.
