See Oracle Support Notes to download and run:
TFA Collector – Tool for Enhanced Diagnostic Gathering (Doc ID 1513912.2) – to download
SRDC – Data Collection for Grid Infrastructure, Storage Management, and RAC (Doc ID 2041228.1)
After downloading then:
# as root
cd /u01/app/grid/
mkdir tfa_setup
unzip TFALite_v12.1.2.8.0.zip
mkdir /u01/app/grid/product/12.1.0/grid/tfa
./installTFALite -local -deferdiscovery -tfabase /u01/app/grid/product/12.1.0/grid/tfa -javahome /u01/app/grid/product/12.1.0/grid/JRE
./tfactl diagcollect -from “SEP/01/2016 08:01:01” -to “SEP/09/2016 07:01:01”
# – the user guide for TFA is also unzipped in the same dir
./installTFALite [-local][-deferdiscovery][-tfabase <install dir>][-javahome < JRE Path>][-silent]
then to collect… to be completed
cd /u01/app/grid/product/12.1.0/grid/tfa/bin[root@asm12c bin]# pwd [root@asm12c bin]# ./tfactl print status .---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. | Host | Status of TFA | PID | Port | Version | Build ID | Inventory Status | +--------+---------------+------+------+------------+----------------------+------------------+ | asm12c | RUNNING | 5510 | 5000 | 12.1.2.8.0 | 12128020160623222219 | COMPLETE | '--------+---------------+------+------+------------+----------------------+------------------' [root@asm12c bin]# ./tfactl access lsusers .---------------------------------. | TFA Users in asm12c | +-----------+-----------+---------+ | User Name | User Type | Status | +-----------+-----------+---------+ | oracle | USER | Allowed | '-----------+-----------+---------.

At this point we could use grid to collect with diagcollect – but since I have root
[root@asm12c bin]# ./tfactl diagcollect -all -since 8d

The log message above shows the location of the collection output – a zip file.
Hope this helps.
