Database Vault Configuration Issues Count - Realms

Description

Once the Database Vault policies are defined and configured to protect the database, further user actions over the course of time can disturb these configurations. This metric tracks the users' actions and raises an alert when there is a misconfiguration on a Realm that needs administrator attention. This metric is enabled out of the box. By default this metric is collected every 1 hour, but the user can set his own collection frequency.

Metric Summary

The rest of the information in this section is only valid for this metric when it appears in either the Enterprise Manager Grid Control or the Enterprise Manager Database Control (if applicable).

The following table shows how often the metric's value is collected and compared against the default thresholds. The 'Consecutive Number of Occurrences Preceding Notification' column indicates the consecutive number of times the comparison against thresholds should hold TRUE before an alert is generated.

Multiple Thresholds

For this metric you can set different warning and critical threshold values for each "Database Vault Realm " object.

If warning or critical threshold values are currently set for any "Database Vault Realm " object, those thresholds can be viewed on the Metric Detail page for this metric.

To specify or change warning or critical threshold values for each "Database Vault Realm " object, use the Edit Thresholds page. See Editing Thresholds for information on accessing the Edit Thresholds page.

Data Source

The configuration issues are picked from scanning the realm and ruleset definitions.

User Action

To know the cause of the realm misconfiguration, navigate to the target's Database Vault Home page, launch Database Vault Administrator, and view the Database Vault Configuration Issues Reports. These alerts are automatically cleared when the configuration issue is resolved.
