TFA-00002 : Oracle Trace File Analyzer (TFA) is not running
TFA Failed to start listening for commands

Solution :

run synctfanodes.sh  if you have root password .

if no root password copy below files to TFA Failed node and try to restart TFA ..

Please check whether these 4 files exist on all nodes are similar.

TFA_HOME/server.jks

TFA_HOME/client.jks

TFA_HOME/internal/ssl.properties

 TFA_HOME/internal/

portmapping.txt

If not similar just copy these files to TFA Failing node and try TFA Restart ..It Worked for me .

 

[root@host01]# ./tfactl  -v "debug" start

Starting TFA..

start: Job is already running: oracle-tfa

Waiting up to 100 seconds for TFA to be started..
