Monitoring

Monitoring turns four switches on or off for many databases at one time. Open Policies › Monitoring.

Policies on Monitoring, with a dot per switch for each database and six TEST databases selected

Before you begin

Changes need Manage databases. Monitoring is not a policy: each database has its own switches.

Change a switch

  1. Select the databases.

  2. In the bar at the bottom, click On or Off for each switch.

  3. For OS logs, select an SSH credential if necessary.

  4. Click Save.

When you turn off the cache, Scops asks you to confirm. The pages of those databases become slower. Scops does not record their change events, and they are not in the all-database views.

What the switches do

SwitchWhen it is on
CacheThe pages of the database open at once. See Cache.
AIScops AI can analyze the database.
RadarRadar Engine looks for risks on the database.
OS LogsScops reads the alert, ASM, CRS and listener logs over SSH.

A filled dot is on. An empty ring is off. An amber ring is on but does not work: there is no credential, or the database is offline.

PoliciesThe four kinds of policy. CacheWhat the cache keeps ready. How Radar worksThe risks that Radar finds.
