Run cellcli on the storage cell, or run a single command from the OS shell with cellcli -e "...". CellCLI commands apply to the local cell; -m starts CellCLI in read-only monitor mode. Oracle: Starting CellCLI · Oracle: CellCLI command syntax
Cell and service health
cellcli -e "list cell detail"cellcli -e "list cell attributes name,status,cellsrvStatus,msStatus,rsStatus,fanStatus,powerStatus,temperatureStatus"
Check cell status, CELLSRV/MS/RS, and hardware status attributes. list cell detail shows the full set of cell attributes.
Disk health and mapping
cellcli -e "list physicaldisk"cellcli -e "list physicaldisk where status != normal detail"cellcli -e "list celldisk"cellcli -e "list celldisk where status != normal detail"cellcli -e "list griddisk"cellcli -e "list griddisk where status != active detail"cellcli -e "list griddisk attributes name,asmModeStatus,asmDeactivationOutcome"cellcli -e "list diskmap"
Typical states to check are physical disk normal, cell disk normal, and grid disk active. For ASM, asmModeStatus=ONLINE means ASM is using the grid disk; asmDeactivationOutcome=Yes means it can be deactivated without data loss. Treat that last attribute as status information, not authorization to deactivate a disk. Oracle: Physical disks · Oracle: Grid disks
LIST DISKMAP helps map physical disk slots and serials to cell disks and grid disks. Oracle: LIST
Alerts and cache
cellcli -e "list alerthistory where ageInMinutes < 1440 detail"cellcli -e "list flashcache detail"cellcli -e "list flashlog detail"
Alert history includes past alert records; review timestamps, severity, and messages to understand whether an alert is current or historical. Oracle: Alert history
CellCLI syntax tips

Commands and object names are generally case-insensitive, and the ending semicolon is optional. DETAIL prints attributes one per line; ATTRIBUTES selects specific fields. Oracle: LIST command
