For information about shapes that aren't listed, including non-metered shapes, contact Oracle Support.

Examples

To limit the number of virtual machine Base Database systems in a compartment, you must set a quota for the number of CPU cores and a separate quota for the block storage:


#Sets a quota for virtual machine Standard Edition OCPUs to 2 in the MyCompartment compartment
set database quota vm-standard1-ocpu-count to 2 in compartment MyCompartment

#Sets the virtual machine DB system block storage quota to 1024 GB in the same compartment
set database quota vm-block-storage-gb to 1024 in compartment MyCompartment

The following example shows how to prevent the usage of all database resources in the tenancy except for two Exadata full rack X7 resources in a specified compartment:

zero database quotas in tenancy
set database quota exadata-full2-368-x7-count to 2 in compartment MyCompartment

This example of nested quotas shows how to distribute limits for a resource type in a compartment among its subcompartments:

#Allows usage of 3 Autonomous Data Warehouse OCPUs in parent compartment Compartment1
set database quota adw-ocpu-count to 3 in compartment Compartment1

#Allows usage of 1 Autonomous Data Warehouse OCPU in child compartment Compartment1.1
set database quota adw-ocpu-count to 1 in compartment Compartment1.1

#Allows usage of 2 Autonomous Data Warehouse OCPUs in child compartment Compartment1.2
set database quota adw-ocpu-count to 2 in compartment Compartment1.2
