Typical Tasks for Administering Oracle IT Analytics

You can perform Oracle IT Analytics specific configuration tasks such as setting capacity thresholds, alert thresholds, and notification channels for your IT environment. You must have the Oracle Management Cloud Administrator role or Oracle IT Analytics administrator role to be able to perform these tasks.

If one of these roles isn’t assigned to you or you’re not sure, then ask your system administrator to ensure that the correct role is assigned to you in Oracle Management Cloud. See Modifying User Roles in Managing and Monitoring Oracle Cloud and About Oracle IT Analytics Roles and Users.

Note:

Oracle IT Analytics retains the raw data (the metric data that is collected and uploaded by agents on the target hosts) for eight days. Before purging the raw data, it rolls up the data into hourly and daily intervals. The rolled up data is then retained for 13 months to provide historical metric information. Data becomes inaccessible at the end of the 13-month period.
