Using Alarms to Monitor Protected Databases
You can create alarms for metrics emitted by the oci_recovery_service
namespace.
Use the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring service alarms feature to passively monitor your protected databases resources and notify you when metrics meet alarm-specified triggers.
From each metric displayed in the Protected database details page, you can set an alarm and be notified when a condition is met. For example, you can create an alarm to notify you when the space used for recovery window is more than 70%, or when the protected database health status changes to 1 (warning).
To set an alarm from the Protected database details page
- Open the navigation menu, click Oracle Database, and select Database Backups to display the Database backups page.
- Choose the compartment that contains the protected databases you want to monitor, and then select a protected database from the list.
- In the Protected database details page, under Resources, click Metrics.
- From any of the available metric charts, click the Options menu, and select Create an alarm on this query. The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring service Create Alarm page is displayed.
- Specify the alarm settings. For detailed instructions to create an alarm, see Managing Alarms.
