Events for Autonomous Database on Dedicated Exadata Infrastructure
APPLIES TO: Oracle Public Cloud only
The Oracle Database resources emit events, which are structured messages that indicate changes in resources. This article lists the operations that generate events for Autonomous Database on Oracle Cloud.
Tip:
Refer to Oracle Exadata Cloud@Customer Events for listings of the operations that generate events for Autonomous Database on Exadata Cloud@Customer.
Autonomous Database generates events for more than forty different operations, providing you fine-grained choices for resource tracking. Following are the different event types that Autonomous Database infrastructure resources emit:
Cloud Exadata Infrastructure Critical and Information Event Types
Cloud Exadata Infrastructure resources emit "critical" and "information" event types. These event types allow you to receive notifications when your infrastructure resource needs urgent attention ("critical" events) or notifications for events that are not critical but which you may want to monitor ("information" events). The eventType values for these events are the following:
These events use the additionalDetails section of the event message to provide specific details about what is happening within the infrastructure resource emitting the event. In the additionalDetails section, the eventName field provides the name of the critical or information event. (Note that some fields in the example that follows have been omitted for brevity.)

The execution plan associated with the terminated SQL stmt is quarantined. Please find the sql identifier in sqlId field of this JSON payload. This feature protects an Oracle database from performance degradation. Please review the SQL statement. You can see the statement using the following commands: \"set serveroutput off\", \"select sql_id, sql_text from v$sqltext where sql_id =<sqlId>\", \"set serveroutput on\"",

These events use the additionalDetails section of the event message to provide specific details about what is happening within the Autonomous Exadata VM Cluster resource emitting the event. In the additionalDetails section, the eventName field provides the name of the critical, warning, or information event.
In the tables below, you can read about the conditions and operations that trigger critical, warning, and information events. Each condition or operation is identified by a unique eventName value.

Autonomous Database Critical, Warning, and Information Event Types
Autonomous Databases emit critical, warning, and information event types. These event types allow you to receive notifications:
When your database needs urgent attention (critical events)
When an event is not critical but needs your attention to prevent it from turning critical (warning events)
For an event that is good to be notified for your information (information events)
The critical, warning, and information event types use an additionalDetails section of the event message to provide specific details about what is happening within the Autonomous Database emitting the event. The eventType values for each of these events are listed below:
In the following example of a critical event, you can see within the additionalDetails section of the event message that this particular message concerns an "ADMIN password expired" condition that has just ended. The eventName and description fields provide information regarding the critical situation within the "adwfinance" database:

Review the list of event types that are emitted in an Autonomous Data Guard configuration for dedicated Exadata infrastructure.
The following table lists the event types for the old Autonomous Data Guard Associations model. These events are deprecated and replaced by new Autonomous Data Guard Groups model event types. See Autonomous Data Guard Models for more information.
Note
The deprecated event types will be supported until March 2026, after which you can only use the new event types for Autonomous Data Guard Groups managed from the Autonomous Container Database, listed on Autonomous Container Database Event Types.
Autonomous Data Guard associations emit critical event types. These event types allow you to receive notifications when your Autonomous Data Guard association needs urgent attention.
The eventType value for these events is com.oraclecloud.databaseservice.autonomous.container.database.dataguardassociation.critical
These events use the additionalDetails section of the event message to provide specific details about what is happening with the Autonomous Data Guard association emitting the event. In the additionalDetails section, the eventName field provides the name of the critical event.
In the table below, you can read about the conditions and operations that trigger critical events. Each condition or operation is identified by a unique eventName value.
Critical Events for Autonomous Data Guard Associations
Event
Description
rolechange.primary
Generated when an Autonomous Database changes its role from standby to primary. This role change could result from manual failover, switchover, or automatic failover.
rolechange.standby
Generated when an Autonomous Database changes its role from primary to standby. This role change could result from manual failover, switchover, or automatic failover.
