Metrics in the oracle_oci_database_cluster Namespace

You can monitor the health, capacity, and performance of your External Database System components by using metrics, alarms, and notifications. The topics in this section describe the metrics emitted by Database Management in the oracle_oci_database_cluster namespace for the components in an External Database System.

The metrics for the External Database System components help identify and resolve any operational issue before it impacts database performance.

Valid alarm intervals for the metrics are 5 minutes or greater due to the frequency at which these metrics are emitted. For information on how to create alarms, see Managing Alarms.

Retention period is set for 90 days. For information on retention periods, see Storage Limits.

Dimensions

The metrics for the External Database System components include the following common dimensions.

Dimension Description
resourceId The OCID of the component.
resourceName The name of the component.
dbSystemId The OCID of the External Database System.
deploymentType The deployment type of the associated database. The deployment type is onprem.
