Table: oci_core_boot_volume_metric_read_ops_hourly - Query OCI Core Boot Volume Metrics using SQL

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Core Boot Volume is a persistent, block-level storage volume that you can attach to a single instance. The boot volume contains the image of the operating system running on your instance. The oci_core_boot_volume_metric_read_ops_hourly table provides data related to the read operations performed on the boot volumes, aggregated on an hourly basis.

Table Usage Guide

The oci_core_boot_volume_metric_read_ops_hourly table provides insights into the read operations metrics of OCI Core Boot Volumes. As a cloud engineer or system administrator, you can use this table to monitor and analyze the read operations on boot volumes, which can be crucial for performance tuning and troubleshooting. This table can be particularly useful in identifying volumes with high read operations, which might indicate a need for capacity planning or performance optimization.

Examples

Basic info

Analyze the settings to understand the performance of boot volumes in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure over time. This query can be used to monitor the read operations, allowing you to pinpoint any unusual activity or potential bottlenecks.

Intervals where volumes exceed 8000 max read ops

Assess the instances where the maximum read operations on boot volumes exceed a threshold of 8000. This can be beneficial in identifying periods of high traffic or potential performance issues within your server infrastructure.

Export

This table is available as a standalone Exporter CLI. Steampipe exporters are stand-alone binaries that allow you to extract data using Steampipe plugins without a database.

You can download the tarball for your platform from the Releases page, but it is simplest to install them with the steampipe_export_installer.sh script:

/bin/sh -c "$(curl -fsSL https://steampipe.io/install/export.sh)" -- oci

You can pass the configuration to the command with the --config argument:

steampipe_export_oci --config '<your_config>' oci_core_boot_volume_metric_read_ops_hourly
