Scans - Database-Tablespace window

 

Use this tab to select the computers, Instances, databases, and tablespaces whose storage usage and consumption you want to monitor. You can include individual databases/tablespaces/computers or groups of databases/tablespaces/computers (that have been predefined using the Groups facility) against which to run the Scan job.
