Description
This module provides an Oracle inventory parser that produces a set of facts showing what Oracle products are installed on your system. For non-Windows servers, it also includes a class to manage the contents of the inventory pointer file.
The inventory parser begins with the central inventory XML file, then inspects all installed (not removed) homes referenced therein. If there is a product installed in a home that matches a known component ID (see Reference section below), a fact is created with that home location, version, and install date/time. In the case of CRS and Database homes, PSU (patch set update) versions and install date/times are included.
These facts can be useful in configuring servers with Oracle products installed. For example, when the Puppet agent runs after a database home is installed, a fact called "oracle_db_home" is created and can then be used to set the oracle user's environment.
The facts can also be useful for inventory reports. For example, to see the latest patch set update (PSU) applied to all the databases in an environment.
Puppet version 4.3 is required because this module makes use of features such as strong data typing.
Setup
Install the oracle_inventory module to add the facts and classes to your environment.
What oracle_inventory affects
Agent nodes will need to be able to install the xml-simple Ruby gem using the puppet_gem provider. The ensure_packages function is used for this, to give users the freedom to manage this package resource in another module.
If you wish to avoid the xml-simple requirement, there is a REXML version of the fact script under examples. Feel free to pull it out and put it under some other module. It produces the same output but takes a little bit longer to run.
Setup Requirements
puppetlabs/stdlib >= 4.13.1 < 7.0.0 is required.
Beginning with oracle_inventory
The module can simply be installed with a Puppetfile entry and the facts will be available (as long as the xml-simple gem is installed). To manage the inventory pointer file, include the oracle_inventory class in some profile manifest. To accept the default parameters:
include ::oracle_inventory
Usage
To manage the Oracle inventory pointer file with non-default parameters, declare the class in this format:
class { '::oracle_inventory':
file_owner => 'oracle',
file_group => 'oinstall',
inventory_dir => '/home/oracle/oraInventory',
}
To install the xml-simple gem and use the facts, but not manage the Oracle inventory pointer file, declare the class as such:
class { '::oracle_inventory':
manage_pointer => false,
}
