  3. Click the name of the database system that you want to edit.
  4. On the DBSystem details page, click More actions and choose Edit management policy.
  5. In the Edit management policy panel, make selections for the following:
     1. Automatic backups: Select Enable automatic backups to enable automatic backups. If you don't select automatic backups, you must manage backups manually. We recommend that you enable automatic backups. After enabling this option, you can set the backup frequency.
     2. Maintenance: Select a Maintenance type option. For more information, see Maintenance.

        • Set by Oracle: Oracle chooses the best day and time to start any essential maintenance.

        • Schedule your own maintenance: Specify the day of the week and the maintenance start time (in UTC timezone) that you want to schedule any essential maintenance activity, such as OS or instance upgrades. If you don't specify a day and time, Oracle chooses it for you.
  6. Click Save changes to update the database system management policy.

• Use the oci psql db-system update command and the --management-policy parameter to update the management policy of a database system:
