Before you discover Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure in Database Management, you must:
The Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure discovery process includes the
following main operations:
- Selecting a previously discovered Oracle Cloud Database System in
the supported Oracle Database cloud solutions.
- Configuring the connectors to the storage servers that you want to
monitor using Database Management.
- Reviewing the associated Oracle Cloud Database System and the
storage servers that will be monitored using Database Management, and creating the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure
resource.
To discover an Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure resource in Database Management:
- Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console.
- At the top of the page, ensure that the region in which you want to discover
the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure is selected.
Note
Cross-region monitoring and
management of Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure is not available.
- Open the navigation menu, click Observability &
Management. Under Database Management,
click Administration.
- On the left pane, select the compartment in which the associated Oracle Cloud
Database System is discovered and select the Oracle Database cloud solution, for
example, ExaDB-D, in the Deployment
type drop-down list.
The registered Oracle Cloud Databases in the compartment are
listed on the Managed databases page along with the link
to the associated Oracle Cloud Database System in the Database
System column.
- Click Discover system and then click Cloud
Exadata infrastructure.
- On the Select VM cluster page of the Discover
Exadata infrastructure panel, select the associated VM cluster
in the Oracle Database cloud solution, and click
Next.
By default, the compartment selected on the Managed
databases page is displayed, however, you can select another
compartment in the drop-down list and select the VM clusters in that
compartment.
- On the Add connectors page of the Discover
Exadata infrastructure panel:
- Review the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure details in the Exadata infrastructure information section.
Note
- The compartment cannot be edited for previously discovered Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure resources.
- The license type is taken from the license type selected for the associated Oracle Cloud Database System.
- Review the list of storage servers and VM clusters
associated with the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure, and add
connections to the storage servers that you would like to monitor using
Database Management. To add a connection to
a single storage server, click Configure
connector in the Connector column
or to add a connection to all storage servers, select all storage
servers and click Configure all connectors. For
information, see Add Connections to Storage Servers.
If you do not want to monitor a
storage server using Database Management,
then deselect the storage server. Note that to proceed with the
discovery process, a connection to at least one storage server must
be added.
- Optionally, click Show advanced
options to add free-form or defined tags to the Oracle
Cloud Exadata Infrastructure. If you have the permissions required to
discover the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure, then you also have
permissions to add free-form tags. To add a defined tag, you must have
permissions to use the tag namespace.
Note
It's recommended that
you set values for the Oracle-Standard tags as these tags ensure
consistency across your tenancy.
For
information on:
- Click Next.
- On the Review page of the Discover Exadata
infrastructure panel, review the Oracle Cloud Exadata
Infrastructure details and tags, if any, and the components that will be
monitored by Database Management, and click
Submit.
On the Managed databases page, a link with the
name of the Oracle Cloud Exadata Infrastructure is displayed in the
Exadata column for the Oracle Cloud Database and Oracle Cloud
Database System with which it's associated.
