Create and Monitor Jobs
A job is an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure resource that enables you to create and asynchronously execute SQL jobs on a single Managed Database or all the Managed Databases in a Database Group.
Before you create a job and monitor its runs and executions, you must:
- Review and complete the tasks given in Get Started with Diagnostics & Management. Note that to create Query type jobs, you must have additional Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage service permissions. For information, see Additional Permissions Required to Use Diagnostics & Management.
- Create a Database Group, if you want to create a job for all the databases in the Database Group.
To go to the Jobs section:
- Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure console.
- Open the navigation menu, click Observability & Management. Under Database Management, click Diagnostics & Management.
- Depending on whether you want to create a job for a single Managed
Database or a Database Group, go to one of the following pages:
- Managed database details page. For information, see Monitor and Manage a Specific Managed Database.
- Database group details page. For information, see Create and Use Database Groups.
- On the left pane under Resources, click Jobs.
The following tabs are displayed in the Jobs section:
- Definitions: On this tab, you can create a job and view the jobs that are in the Active state and were created within the time period selected in the Time period field.
