When you select either Databases or Hosts from the Capacity Planning menu, a Resources sub-menu is presented.

• Databases: Summary, CPU, Storage, Memory, and I/O.
• Hosts: Summary, CPU, and Memory

These pages comprise the Capacity Planning application of Ops Insights Service.

Below the sub-menu are Scope and Filters sections that define the global time and target scope shared across the Capacity Planning application.

For Databases

• Compartment: Capacity Planning is scoped to all databases enabled for Ops Insights and belonging to a specific compartment.
• Database Type: The database scope can be further narrowed by filtering on database type.
• Database: This option allows you to narrow the scope to a single database. To limit the number of databases that appear in the drop-down menu, you can type in a partial name to filter out unwanted databases.
• Time Range: This is the historical time period on which Capacity Planning trends and forecasts will be based, ranging from previous day up to last 25 months.
