Stop a DB System
This article provides the details and procedure to stop a DB system.
DB system nodes are stopped individually. For multi-node RAC DB systems, you may need to act on only one node (as in the case of proactively rebooting a node with scheduled maintenance).
Procedure
Perform the following steps to stop a DB system using the OCI Console:
- From the navigation menu, select Oracle Database, and then select Oracle Base Database Service.
- Select your Compartment. A list of DB systems is displayed.
- On the DB systems list page, select the DB system that you want to manage. The DB system details page is displayed.
- On the DB system details page, under Resources, select Nodes to view the list of nodes.
- From the Actions menu of the desired node, select
Stop.
This action shuts down the node. After the node is powered off, the Start action is enabled.
Note:
- Stopping a node stops billing for all OCPUs associated with that node. Billing resumes if you restart the node.
-
After you restart or reboot a node, the floating IP address might take several minutes to be updated and displayed in the OCI Console.
