Oracle Audit Vault General Commands

Here are useful commands when using Oracle Audit Vault. Commands are listed for the collector to show the status and to start and stop the agent and there are commands for the server side to add and agent, start and stop the agent and also start and stop the collectors.

On a test system where collectors are created and removed often, sometimes it is necessary to redeploy using the commands listed.

On the Collector:
avctl show_agent_status
avctl start_agent
avctl stop_agent


On the Server:
avca add_agent -agentname avagent1 -agenthost <host>

avctl start_agent - starts the web server running on <host>:1158/av
avctl stop_agent - stops the web server running on <host>:1158/av
avctl show_av_status - shows if the web server at <host>:1158/av is running

avctl show_collector_status -collname DBAUD_Collector -srcname db1001
avctl start_collector -collname DBAUD_Collector -srcname db1001

avctl stop_collector -collname DBAUD_Collector -srcname db1001

If the avctl or avca commands return internal errors it may be necessary to redeploy the av using the deploy_av command.
