Operating system data properties

The operating system data properties check operating system prerequisites such as
version, architecture, total memory, available memory, and total physical memory.
For Windows systems only, it uses the operating system VBScript collectors in the
ips_root/lib directory, with the os prefix identifier in their file names. For UNIX
systems only, it uses the UNIX operating system collectors in the
ips_root/UNIX_Linux directory, with the os prefix identifier in their file names.
Table 26 outlines the operating system prerequisite properties. This category of
prerequisite properties require the os prefix identifier.
Table 26. Operating system data properties
Prerequisite property
os.architecture
os.automount
os.autoUpdateEnabled
os.availableMemory
os.dir.dir_name
os.diskquota
Platform Description
All Checks the home directory of the
Oracle database server
Platform Description
All Checks the system architecture
UNIX Checks whether the automount
features works
Windows Checks whether Windows Update is
automatically enabled; returns True if
enabled
Windows Checks the amount of virtual
memory that is currently available
but unused by the operating system
UNIX Checks the dir_name file system based
on the following qualification
attributes:
v dir attribute, to determine which
file system to check
v type attribute, to determine which
attribute of the file system to
check, for example, the
octal_digits octal digit
representation for the access
permissions to that file system
dir_name can represent for example:
v tmp
v home
Checks the disk usage quota for the
logged on user; returns the value for
the quota in kilobytes or Unlimited
Valid values
String, for example:
/opt/oracle/product/10.1.0/Db_1
Valid values
32-bit|64-bit
Boolean value, for example:
True
Boolean value, for example:
True
Numeric format in MBs, for
example:
900MB
String with the following
qualifier format:
[dir:dir_name,
type:permission]
octal_digits+
For example, to check whether
the home directory has
drwxr-xr-x permissions:
os.dir.home=[dir:/home,
type:permission]755+
The value can be any of the
following types:
v Number to represent
kilobytes, for example,
414000
v String to represent an
unlimited disk quota, for
example, Unlimited
