Metrics in the oracle_oci_database
Namespace for HeatWave and External MySQL
You can use metrics, alarms, and notifications to monitor the key
statistics of the MySQL instances in the Database Management-enabled HeatWave and External MySQL DB systems.
Valid alarm intervals for the metrics are 5 minutes or greater due to the
frequency at which these metrics are emitted. For information on how to create
alarms, see Managing Alarms.
Retention period is set for 90 days. For information on retention
periods, see Storage Limits.
Dimensions
