oraNavigatorTable

The oraNavigatorTable contains information about the status of a Navigator of the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange. The Navigator is a process which chooses the best possible connection path in an Oracle SQL*Net network by considering network capabilities and availability. Monitoring the status of the Navigator is important, because if the Navigator is down, the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange cannot function.

Each entry in the oraNavigatorTable represents a Navigator on the node. Each entry is indexed by applIndex; thus, there is a one-to-one (or interchange) relationship between an Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange and its Navigator. (For details about applIndex, see Appendix F, "Interpreting Implemented Variables of the Network Services MIB.") The current value of each oraNavigatorTable variable is retrieved from a file the Navigator creates.

Table C - 2 lists the variables included in the oraNavigatorTable.

Table C - 2. oraNavigatorTable Variables and Corresponding Object IDs

A description of each of these variables follows.

oraNavigatorRunningTime

Syntax DisplayString
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the elapsed time (in seconds) since a Navigator was last started, as calculated from the current date and time at that moment. This value is reset to 0 when the Navigator is restarted.
Typical Range 1 - 80 characters
Significance less important
Related Variables oraNavigatorStartTime
Suggested Presentation clock or simple string

oraNavigatorLogging

Syntax INTEGER (1) on, or (2) off
Max-Access read-write
Explanation Indicates whether a Navigator should log requests from the Connection Manager and the Pumps.
Typical Range enumerated 1 or 2
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorLogFile, oraNavigatorLoggingLevel
Suggested Presentation ON/OFF switch

oraNavigatorLoggingLevel

Syntax INTEGER (1) all, or (2) errors.
Max-Access read-write
Explanation Indicates whether a Navigator should log all requests from Pumps and the Connection Manager, or errors only.
Typical Range enumerated 1 or 2
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorLogFile, oraNavigatorLogging,
Suggested Presentation icon or simple integer

oraNavigatorLogFile

Syntax DisplayString
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the name of the log file the Navigator created. The default log file name is specific to the operating system; for UNIX, it is /$ORACLE_HOME/network/log/navgatr.log.
Typical Range 1 - 255 characters
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorLogging, oraNavigatorLoggingLevel
Suggested Presentation simple string

oraNavigatorTraceLevel

Syntax INTEGER (1 - 17)
Max-Access read-write
Explanation Indicates the level at which a Navigator should be traced. A value of 4 means that tracing at the USER level is turned on; and 6 means that tracing at the ADMIN level is turned on. A value of 17 means that tracing is turned off.
Typical Range enumerated 1 - 17
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorTraceFile
Suggested Presentation as an icon, or as a simple string of characters, OFF, USER or ADMIN

oraNavigatorTraceFile

Syntax DisplayString
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the name of the trace file the Navigator created. The default trace file name is specific to the operating system; on a UNIX platform, it is /$ORACLE_HOME/network/trace/nav_pid.trc, where pid is the process ID of the Navigator
Typical Range 1 - 255 characters
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorTraceLevel
Suggested Presentation simple string

oraNavigatorStoppable

Syntax INTEGER (1) yes, or (2) no.
Max-Access read-write
Explanation Indicates whether a Navigator can be stopped using the Oracle MultiProtocol Interchange Control Utility program (INTCTL). A value of 1 means that the Navigator is stoppable; a value of 2 means that it is nonstoppable.
Typical Range 1 or 2
Significance important
Related Variables none
Suggested Presentation simple string

oraNavigatorAccumulatedSuccessfulRequests

Syntax Counter32
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the total number of successful requests a Navigator has received from the Connection Manager or Pumps. This value resets to 0 when the statistics reset interval expires.
Typical Range 0 - 4294967295
Significance important
Related Variables none
Suggested Presentation counter

oraNavigatorAccumulatedFailedRequests

Syntax Counter32
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the total number of unsuccessful requests since Navigator startup that a Navigator has received from Pumps or the Connection Manager. This value resets to 0 when the statistics reset interval expires.
Typical Range 0 - 4294967295
Significance important
Related Variables none
Suggested Presentation counter

oraNavigatorState

Syntax INTEGER (1) up, or (2) down.
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the current state of a Navigator. A value of 1 means that the Navigator is running. A value of 2 means that the Navigator is not running.
Typical Range 1 or 2
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorStateChange
Suggested Presentation UP/DOWN switch

oraNavigatorErrors

Syntax DisplayString
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the error stack of a Navigator when it fails. This error stack contains the error codes reported in the NS and NT layers
Typical Range 1 - 255 characters
Significance important
Related Variables oraNavigatorErrorMessage
Suggested Presentation simple string

oraNavigatorErrorMessage

Syntax DisplayString
Max-Access read-only
Explanation Indicates the error message generated when a Navigator fails.
Typical Range 1 - 255 characters
