    Question

    Hi there,

    Is there any internal table in Oracle where it inserts all the error/warning/info messages which are there in ALERT.LOG file.

    I want to write an event based trigger so that as soon as Oracle writes into ALERT.LOG or inserts into ALERTs table (if any), I get the mail.

    Thanks in Adv.
    Sam

    Not AFAIK, the errors don't get logged to a table. OEM does some monitoring of the alert.log file, but I think it is through the intelligent agent.

    You can do it by shell script. grep ORA errors from the alert.log file. Put the script in cron to run every hour. I have shell script which I run daily from cron.

    Hi Sanjay,


    We are on NT so there is no such command AFAIK like grep.

    Secondly, I want to have it event based and not periodic search in ALERT.log.

    Thanks,
    Sam

    Run Oracle Enterprise Manager.
    Investigate an API into the Intelligent Agent.
