Oracle Review Lite
This article provides an overview of the Oracle Review Lite script, a diagnostic tool developed by Oracle for use in software asset management and licensing reviews
The Oracle Review Lite script is a diagnostic utility developed by Oracle, typically used in the context of software asset management, internal reviews, or audit-related activities.
The script is intended to assist with the evaluation of Oracle Database deployments by generating a detailed report. It is often used as part of processes where visibility into Oracle environments is required for assessment or reporting purposes.
How to Run the Script
Requirements
- Access to an Oracle Database instance
- Privileges to connect with SYSDBA
- Availability of SQL*Plus or a similar command-line SQL client
- Permission to write output files to a local directory
Execution Steps
- Place the script file on the database server or in a directory accessible from the SQL environment.
- Open a terminal session.
- Launch a SQL*Plus session using administrative access:
bashCopyEditsqlplus / as sysdba
- Navigate to the directory where the script is located.
- Execute the script:
sqlCopyEditSQL> @review_lite.sql
- Upon completion, the script will generate one or more output files in a local directory. These files may be used for review or reporting purposes.
Additional Notes
- The script is executed in read-only mode and does not make changes to the database.
- It is typically provided directly by Oracle in relevant contexts.
- Output files are generated in a format that supports manual inspection and documentation.
