Start a DB System

This article provides the details and procedure to start a DB system.

The DB system nodes are started individually. For multi-node DB systems, you may need to act on only one node (as in the case of proactively rebooting a virtual machine node with scheduled maintenance).

Procedure

Perform the following steps to start a DB system using the OCI Console:

  1. From the navigation menu, select Oracle Database, and then select Oracle Base Database Service.
  2. Select your Compartment. A list of DB systems is displayed.
  3. On the DB systems list page, select the DB system that you want to manage. The DB system details page is displayed.
  4. On the DB system details page, under Resources, select Nodes to view the list of nodes.
  5. From the Actions menu of the desired node, select Start.

    This action restarts a stopped node. After the node is restarted, the Stop action is enabled.

Note:

After you restart or reboot a node, the floating IP address might take several minutes to be updated and displayed in the OCI Console.
