Manage the Service

Describes basic tasks for managing an Autonomous AI Database instance.

• Lifecycle Operations
  You can start, stop, restart, rename, and terminate an Autonomous AI Database instance.
• Update Compute and storage limits
  Autonomous AI Database has the ability to increase its storage or CPU cores. You can also activate auto scaling.
• Update Billing Model, Choose Bring Your Own License, or Update Instance to a Paid Instance
  Describes how to choose to bring your own license to your Autonomous AI Database instance. Also shows how to update the billing model to the ECPU compute model and shows how to update your instance from free (Always Free) to a paid instance.
• Clone, Move, or Upgrade an Autonomous AI Database Instance
  Autonomous AI Database provides cloning where you can choose to create a full clone, create a metadata clone, or create a refreshable clone. You can also move a database to a different compartment. By creating a clone you can upgrade an instance with Oracle Database 19c to create an Oracle AI Database 26ai clone (either a full clone or a refreshable clone).
• Use Refreshable Clones with Autonomous AI Database
  Autonomous AI Database provides cloning where you can choose to create a full clone of the active instance, create a metadata clone, or create a refreshable clone. With a refreshable clone the system creates a clone that can be easily updated with changes from the source database.
• Manage Autonomous AI Database Built-in Tools
  Autonomous AI Database includes built-in tools that you can enable and disable when you provision or clone a database, or at any time for an existing database.
• Use Autonomous AI Database Events
  Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Events enable you to create automation based on state changes for your Autonomous AI Database.
• Manage Time Zone File Updates on Autonomous AI Database
  Autonomous AI Database provides several options to automatically update time zone files on an Autonomous AI Database database instance.
• Monitor Autonomous AI Database Availability
  Shows you the steps to view availability information for an Autonomous AI Database instance.
• Monitor Regional Availability of Autonomous AI Database
  The regional availability is represented as a list of daily uptime percentages of Autonomous AI Database across a set of services in each available region.
• Manage Resource Availability with Compartment Quotas
  Autonomous AI Database supports the compartment quotas feature of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
