This is what i normally do to check a RAC DB + single RAC instance in the configuration:
oraclehome = /usr/local/oracle/10.2.0/client/ bbdisplay = localhost bbconncolumn = ChkConn::fast bbauditcolumn = Audit::fast bbtablespacecolumn = TblSpace::fast bbextentcolumn = Extent::slow bbhitcachecolumn = HitCache::fast bbmemreqcolumn = MemReq::fast bbrollbackcolumn = RollBack::slow bbinvobjcolumn = InvObj::fast bblockscolumn = Locks::fast bbsessioncolumn = Session::fast bbsessionuserlist = yes username = userxxx password = pwxxxxx
[CL10G] oraclerac = yes bbhitcachecolumn = HitCache:notest bbmemreqcolumn = MemReq:notest
[CL10G1] hostname = itromdb21 bbauditcolumn = Audit:notest bbtablespacecolumn = TblSpace:notest bbextentcolumn = Extent:notest bbrollbackcolumn = RollBack:notest bblockscolumn = Locks:notest bbinvobjcolumn = InvObj:notest
[CL10G2] hostname = itromdb22 bbauditcolumn = Audit:notest bbtablespacecolumn = TblSpace:notest bbextentcolumn = Extent:notest bbrollbackcolumn = RollBack:notest bblockscolumn = Locks:notest bbinvobjcolumn = InvObj:notest
In tnsnames.ora (under ORACLE_HOME/network/admin) I've those configuration:
CL10G = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ITROMDB21)(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ITROMDB22)(PORT = 1521)) (LOAD_BALANCE = no) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = cl10g) ) )
CL10G2 = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ITROMDB22)(PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = cl10g) (INSTANCE_NAME = cl10g2) ) )
CL10G1 = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ITROMDB21)(PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = cl10g) (INSTANCE_NAME = cl10g1) ) )
With this setting I normally use the tnsnames.ora configuration for RAC (I was able to check RAC database only using tnsnames.ora not directly. You can try to remove the hostname and port from the db configuration for the RAC. If the SID is equal to the name of the DB to check (the one in []) you can also remove the sid line from the configuration.
You can also try to connect with a telnet to the hostname and listener port to see if it answer (or better you can configure on the client the tnsnames.ora and do a tnsping to see if the instances are answering).
As you can see I don't do some checks on the RAC itselft or on the single instances... For example I don't test memreq and hitcache on the RAC and I don't check TblSpace, Extent, Rollback, locks, invalid objects on the single instances.
Please check also on the configuration file and remove all ending space after host or port or sid. I don't know if it can create problems (I'll check this also and remove those from the configuration option for the next version).
Let me know if this work for you or you have other problems.

Hi, Franceso !
Thanks for the hint, it looks better/cleaner now, but the error is still exist ...

Hi, dbcheck.pl (and the other scripts in the package) use the CONFIG::IniFiles to read configuration data. CONFIG::Inifiles allow comment line starting with "#" and ";" but I think it will not recognize the "#" comment at the middle of a line so if you need comments you should put them alone on the line before or next to the line to comment on.
On some of the sample config file I've put some comment next to parameters and this could probably generate confusion. I'll change the sample config file and put this behavious also in the documentation I'm writing for the next version (the actual documentation is not really well written and organized).

Hi !
I want to use dbcheck.pl from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/hobbit-perl-cl/
.. but unfortunatley something is going wrong, i get only "Connection Refused" Messages and no data .. :-(
My config is below:
[SNIP]
dbcheck.ini:
oraclehome = /opt/products/oracle-client/10.2g/ username = XXXX password = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
[atlas_tag_db] dbtype = Oracle oraclerac = yes hostname = lcg3d-a-v-4 # hostname of the rac instance n.2 sid = atlas_tag_db # sid of the rac instance n.2 port = 1521 # port of listener on rac instance
I don't use this code, but your error output suggests that it's trying to use your hostname, sid, and port from dbcheck.ini exactly as written, comments and all. I don't see anything in the sample dbcheck.ini file that suggests that you can use trailing comments in the way that you are doing, so perhaps you should try without those.
