Services Management

You can manage services in your deployment with Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.

To manage Oracle Globally Distributed Database services, open the Sharded Database menu, located in the top left corner of the Sharded Database target page, and choose Services. On the Services page, using the controls at the top of the list of services, you can start, stop, enable, disable, create, edit, and delete services.

Selecting a service opens a service details list which displays the hosts and shards on which the service is running, and the status, state, and Data Guard role of each of those instances. Selecting a shard in this list allows you to enable, disable, start, and stop the service on the individual shards.

Creating a Service

Create services in your deployment using Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control.

1. Open the Sharded Database menu, located in the top left corner of the Sharded Database target page, and choose Services.
2. If prompted, enter the shard catalog credentials, select the shard director to manage under Shard Director Credentials, select the shard director host credentials, and log in.
3. Click Create, or select a service from the list and click Create Like.

   Choosing Create opens the Create Service dialog with default configuration values in the fields.

   Choosing Create Like opens the Create Like Service dialog with configuration values from the selected service in the fields. You must select a service from the list to enable the Create Like option.

4. Enter the required information in the dialog, and click OK.

   Note:

   If you do not want the service to start running immediately upon creation, you must uncheck the Start service on all shards after creation checkbox.

5. Click the link in the Information box at the top of the page to view the provisioning status of the service.

When the service is created successfully it appears in the Services list. You might need to refresh the page to see the updates.
