Guidelines

Announcement Support for this product will end on December 22, 2025. To monitor Oracle databases, we recommend that you use PATROL for Oracle Enterprise Database.

Enabling and disabling Oracle instance monitoring

Use this task to start or stop PATROL for Oracle monitoring for an instance. If you disable monitoring of the instance, the instance is still configured.

  1. From the ORACLE menu, choose Configuration > Advanced > Monitor Enable/Disable.
     The left side of the Enable/Disable Instance Monitoring dialog box lists all instances that have been configured and are being monitored. The right side lists all instances that have been configured but are not being monitored.
  2. Enable or disable monitoring as necessary:
    • To enable monitoring for an instance, select an instance or instances from the Instances Being Disabled list box and click Accept.

      The instance name is moved from the right side to the left side and is now enabled for monitoring.
    • To disable monitoring for an instance, select an instance or instances from the Instances Being Enabled list box and click Accept.

      The instance name is moved from the left side to the right side and is no longer being monitored.
  3. Click Exit to exit this function.
     If an instance has been enabled, the instance is discovered and its icon appears in the ORACLE container in the next polling cycle. If an instance has been disabled, the instance icon disappears from the ORACLE container in the next discovery cycle.

Enabling and disabling Oracle ASM, RAC, Data Guard, and Standby Data Guard instances monitoring

Use this task to start PATROL monitoring for an ASM, RAC, or a Data Guard instance, or to stop PATROL from monitoring an ASM, RAC, or a Data Guard instance.

Note

If you remove an instance from monitoring, you must remove that instance from HTML reporting.

  1. Right-click the application class of the instance to be enabled or disabled, click KM Command, and select < application_class_name> Monitor Enable/Disable.
     The < application_class_name > Enable/Disable Instance Monitoring dialog box is displayed.
     For example, if you are monitoring the:
    • ASM instance, right-click ORACLE_ASM, click KM Command, and select ASM Monitor Enable/Disable.
    • RAC instance, right-click ORACLE_RAC, click KM Command, and select RAC Monitor Enable/Disable.
    • Data Guard instance, right-click ORACLE_Dataguard, click KM Command, and select Dataguard Monitor Enable/Disable.
    • Standby Data Guard instance, right-click ORACLE_STANDBY_DG, click KM Command, and select Standby DG Monitor Enable/Disable.
  2. Select the instance to enable or disable as described in the ASM/RAC/Data Guard Enable/Disable Instance Monitoring dialog box topic of the online Help.
     When an instance is enabled, the instance is discovered and its icon appears during the next polling cycle. When an instance is disabled, the instance icon disappears during the next discovery cycle.

Where to go from here


Now you can start monitoring the instance.
