Click the relevant service name link to open the details page for that service.

My Services lets you monitor and manage the health of your assigned services within a single realm of users and manage service associations, users and roles.

In addition, by using My Services, you can lock and unlock services, monitor service metrics, access service-specific consoles, and retrieve terminated service archives within 60 days after termination.

In My Services, the details page for a service displays status, uptime, and utilization data; lets you complete administration tasks, such as locking a service or associating services; and provides links to the service console, the service instance, and the Oracle store.

The service details page can be accessed easily from My Services. The Dashboard, Applications, or Platform Services page of My Services displays the service listing.

As a service administrator, you are responsible for administering activated services.

You use Year View to show the percentage of time the service was up during each month of the current year.

If data is not displayed for a time period, then the data was not available, because the service wasn’t activated.

The system calculates the uptime percentage as the number of hours that the service has been up divided by 24 hours.

When you open the service details page for a service from My Account or My Services, the Overview page is in focus. The Overview page displays the current month and year, the percentage of time the service was up during the month, and the number of service outages that occurred.

You can use the Month View or the Year View controls to change your view of the status and uptime information for the service. You use Month View (default) to show the service status—before activation, service up, or service incident—for each day in the current month.

• Historical Usage: Displays all the usage data collected per day for the current service for the past 7 days. The system calculates and displays usage data based on the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The historical usage data is available in both My Services and My Account.

If a service is underutilized, consider deploying additional applications, additional users, additional customers, and so on (depending on the type of service).

If a service is overutilized, consider changing your subscription level, adding additional services instances, or clustering to improve load management.

In My Account, you can view only historical usage data. But, in My Services, you can view a snapshot of the latest usage and the historical usage data.

In the service details page, the Metrics page displays the usage data for the selected service for either the latest usage or the historical usage.

• Latest Usage: Displays a snapshot of the last set of metrics collected and when those metrics were collected. The latest usage data is available only in My Services.

You can monitor the utilization data to help you determine whether the service resource allocations are underutilized or overutilized.

Locking and Unlocking Services In the service details page, you must click the Administration tile to display the Lock/Unlock Service

section that displays the current status of the service.

Here, you can lock or unlock the service. The system immediately sends your request to Oracle Cloud and updates the status.

The cloud status icon shows a padlock if the service is locked.

Using the Administration tile on the service details page of My Services, you can lock or unlock a service.

When you lock a service, your service users and developers can’t access the service or any deployed applications. However, administration interfaces are still accessible, so administrators can still perform operations for the locked service. For example, administrators can add users to or remove users from the service.

Lock and unlock requests may take time to process. You’ll receive an email when your request is complete.

After you perform service association or disassociation, the system updates the Associated Services section with the current status, such as Pending association or Pending disassociation.

When the processing is complete, the system updates the information on the Associations tile and in the Associated Services section. In addition, Oracle Cloud sends you an email whenever the association for a service changes.

You can create an association between some services. Service association lets services communicate with each other. For example, you can associate an Oracle Java Cloud Service with an Oracle Database Cloud Service, so that your Java applications can read from and write to your database service.

Two services can be associated only if they are in the same identity domain.

You use the Associations tile in the service details page of My Services to associate or disassociate services.
