Autonomous Database

Learn how to modify an Autonomous Container Database and Autonomous Database.

  • Autonomous Database modification is only available through the OCI Console and OCI CLI. To navigate to the OCI console, complete the following steps:
    1. From the Oracle Database@AWS dashboard, select Autonomous VM clusters, and then select Autonomous VM Cluster that you are using.
    2. Select the Manage in OCI button which allows you to manage your Autonomous Exadata VM clusters in the OCI console.This screenshot shows the first step of modifying an Autonomous Database within Autonomous VM Cluster
  • Autonomous Container Database

    This topic explains the list of Autonomous Container Database tasks that can be performed from the OCI console.

    Table 1-1 List of Autonomous Container Database Tasks

    Task Overview
    Edit Autonomous Container Database Backup Settings

    If your automatic backup settings are disabled during creating an Autonomous Container Database(ACD), you can enable the automatic backup feature from the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) console. For more information, see Edit Autonomous Container Database Backup Settings.

    Manage Autonomous Data Guard Configuration

    The Autonomous Data Guard feature of Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure enables you to keep your critical production databases available to mission critical applications despite failures, disasters, human error, or data corruption. This type of capability is often called disaster recovery. For more information, see Manage Autonomous Data Guard Configuration.

    Manage Customer Contacts for an Autonomous Container Database

    You can add, edit, and remove customer contacts for an Autonomous Container Database from the details page. For more information, see Manage Customer Contacts for an Autonomous Container Database.

    Move an Autonomous Container Database to a Different Compartment

    You can move your Autonomous Container Database to different OCI compartments. For more information, see Move an Autonomous Container Database to a Different Compartment.

    Restart an Autonomous Container Database

    You can restart an Autonomous Container Database by selecting the Restart button on its details page.

    The restart of an Autonomous Container Database occurs in a rolling mode: it first stops and starts one of the container database’s instances, then stops and starts the other instance. For more information, see Restart an Autonomous Container Database.

    Schedule a Quarterly Maintenance Update

    You can schedule an on-demand maintenance to update RU (Release Update) along with the time-zone file or just the time-zone file for an Autonomous Container Database (ACD). You can also choose to update using an existing custom database software image. For more information, see Schedule a Quarterly Maintenance Update.

    Update Autonomous Container Database Maintenance Preferences

    You update the maintenance preferences of an Autonomous Container Database from its details page. For more information, see Update Autonomous Container Database Maintenance Preferences.

    View and Manage Scheduled Maintenance of an Autonomous Container Database

    You view and manage scheduled maintenance of an Autonomous Container Database from its details page. For more information, see View and Manage Scheduled Maintenance of an Autonomous Container Database.

    Autonomous Database

    This topic explains the list of Autonomous Database operations that can be performed from the OCI console.

    Table 1-2 List of Autonomous Database Tasks

    Task Overview
    Clone an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure Cloning is the process of creating a point-in-time copy of your Autonomous Database or its backup set. You can clone an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure from the details page. For more information, see Clone an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure.
    Enable or Disable Auto Scaling of an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure Auto scaling enables a database to use up to three times more CPU and IO resources than its specified CPU count. When auto scaling is enabled, if your workload requires additional CPU and IO resources the database automatically uses the resources without any manual intervention required. For more information, see Enable or Disable Auto Scaling of an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure.
    Enable or Disable Database In-Memory

    You can enable or disable Database In-Memory from the details page of an Autonomous Database.

    Please see Database In-Memory for the requirements and guidelines to use this feature with Autonomous Database. For more information, see Enable or Disable Database In-Memory.

    Manage Customer Contacts for an Autonomous Database You can add, edit, and remove customer contacts for an Autonomous Database from the details page. For more information, see Manage Customer Contacts for an Autonomous Database.
    Manage CPU or Storage Resources of an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure You can manage CPU or storage resources of an Autonomous Database from the details page. For more information, see Manage CPU or Storage Resources of an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure.
    Manage Primary and Standby Databases in an Autonomous Data Guard Configuration

    When you create an Autonomous Database in an Autonomous Container Database that has Autonomous Data Guard enabled, two completely separate copies of your database are created: one in a primary container database, and one (a synchronized copy) in a standby container database. Then, should the primary container database become unavailable, Autonomous Data Guard automatically converts the standby container database to the primary container database and, as such, it begins servicing application connections to your Autonomous Database. For more information, see Manage Primary and Standby Databases in an Autonomous Data Guard Configuration.

    Start, Stop, and Restart an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure

    You can manage start, stop, and restart an Autonomous Database from the details page.

    For more information, see Start, Stop, and Restart an Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure.
