Frequently Asked Questions

Login issues may be caused by credential problems, account lockouts, or service disruptions. Verify your username and password are correct, check if your account requires multi-factor authentication, and try accessing OCI through a different browser or clearing your browser cache.

VM connectivity issues can result from network configuration problems, instance states, or infrastructure disruptions. Check your instance's status in the OCI console, verify security list and network security group rules allow your traffic, and check if other resources in the same availability domain are also affected.

These errors occur when you've reached your account's resource quotas for a specific service or region. Check your service limits in the OCI console, request quota increases if needed, or try deploying resources in a different region where you may have available capacity.

Database connectivity issues may be caused by network configuration, security lists, or database service problems. Verify your connection string details, check that your security lists allow traffic on the database port, and confirm the database service is running correctly in the OCI console.

Load balancer issues can stem from backend health check failures, configuration problems, or service disruptions. Check your backend servers' health status, verify load balancer listener and backend set configurations, and examine load balancer error logs for specific failure reasons.

API failures may be due to authentication issues, service availability problems, or rate limiting. Verify your API signing credentials are correct, check if you're exceeding API request limits, and inspect error responses for specific error codes that can guide troubleshooting.

Object storage issues can result from permission problems, network latency, or service disruptions. Verify your bucket permissions and access policies, check if the issues affect specific buckets or regions, and try accessing through different tools or endpoints to isolate the problem.

Network performance issues may be caused by route configuration, bandwidth constraints, or infrastructure problems. Try running network diagnostics from your instances, check if traffic between different availability domains is affected, and verify your virtual network configuration for any potential bottlenecks.

About Oracle Cloud

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) is a suite of cloud computing services that provides server, storage, network, and application resources for enterprise workloads. The platform offers compute instances, autonomous databases, container orchestration, analytics tools, and specialized services for artificial intelligence and machine learning, enabling organizations to run traditional and cloud-native applications with predictable pricing and consistent performance guarantees. Enterprise IT departments use Oracle Cloud to migrate and modernize legacy applications, particularly those built on Oracle technologies like Oracle Database, taking advantage of specialized optimization for these workloads. Development teams implement OCI's container services and serverless functions for building microservices architectures and cloud-native applications, while data science groups utilize GPU instances and AI services for machine learning model training and deployment. Finance and operations departments rely on Oracle Cloud's analytics and data warehouse capabilities for business intelligence, regulatory compliance, and enterprise resource planning through integrated Oracle applications. Users may experience various types of issues when using Oracle Cloud, including temporary console access delays during authentication updates, occasional provisioning queue times for specialized compute shapes during high demand periods, or intermittent networking latency between regions or connected on-premises environments. Resource quota limitations might temporarily prevent new service instantiation until resolved through support channels, while complex database operations could occasionally experience performance variations during maintenance windows. Connectivity between Oracle Cloud and third-party services might require specific configuration for optimal routing, and automated scaling operations might exhibit brief delays during rapid demand changes. During infrastructure updates, users might notice slightly increased latency for management operations or brief delays in telemetry data availability across monitoring dashboards.
